Welcome to Saturday's Sharing Beyond Books #1 Comment Giveaway!

Well- that is the name for now but it might change!
There was actually a tie in votes for SBB - Sharing Beyond Books and OLWB, Our Lives With Books. So If you want a run off then name your choice between those in your comment to this post. I had actually intended that OLWB to be an OWL choice but I must have been tired to not notice it didn't spell OWL. *G* If anyone can come up with good words for that I like it myself. Of course it is clear that some of you (J - you know who you are!) will NOT vote for that. LOL

Picture choice C. easily won with 8 votes. It's a nice picture for us to think we are sharing a bit of magical tea while chatting!

It seems many of us read 2-3 hours a day although some as little as 1/2 hour (Mariska - my daughter can relate to no time when you are watching little ones!) and a couple of you (Krystal, Maria) read 4-6 hours a day! I guess a 4 hour commute would be a great time for reading... Is that a train ride or bus? And Carol L averages a paperback a day. Whew - my eyes tire just thinking of that.Even listening usually takes at least two days.

The Winner from last week's comments is: #11 Krystal.  I just sent out a group of emails to past winners who had not selected from the book lists from Valentine or December so I'm not sure what's going to be left. BUT, I planned ahead and provided that last week's winner would get to choose from The Arc Giveaway List too.  So Krystal - please choose a book from the ARCs or the remaining Love Books List for Giveaway or remaining Christmas Giveaway Books and let me know your choice, your address and a choice of bookmarks by completing the WINNER FORM.


WEEK #1 Questions
Q1.  Do you read more than one book at a time?
I'm not sure if we have talked about this before but I image if you read the It's Monday, What Are You Reading posts you know that I actually read about four books at a time in different media: Print, Kindle, Audio CDs in the car and Audible on my Zen.


Q2. Share a favorite spot you like in your own country.
I've lived in Florida for years. Maybe because I was raised near the beach I don't really like the beach that much.
One place we really enjoyed camping in our MotorCoach is  
Desoto Caverns Campground in Alabama. They have play areas for children as well as the cavern tours. A very relaxing and fun place at fair prices.


Your turn to share: 
1.  Vote for SBB or OLWB and/or suggest a title for OWL.
2.  Share if you read more than one book at a time.
3.  Tell us a a favorite place you like in your own Country.

Enquire Comment Winners can choose a selection from the remaining  Valentine and "Love" books or the remaining Christmas Giveaway Books - there are still about 19 books available to choose from. I'll start pulling some summer books to add soon.
Rules: a) Must be a follower; b) Share a comment on any (or all) of the three questions above.
Open internationally and an international winner may get a smaller book or a $5.00 GC if I decide the mailing is too much.
I will pick a Comment winner from all comments made by Friday, June 24 at 10PM central.
