Sharing Beyond Books #202 Comment Giveaway May 9, 2015

Hello again on Saturday night and Welcome to Sharing Beyond Books, SBB!

I work and work but always have more to do. I suppose that is normal life. The weather is beautiful although a bit warm - made it to 94 yesterday.

Thanks to everyone who commented last week.
It is nice that many of us share our unwanted books with others. At least six people share and swap books with friends and family. Eight or so donate books to the library, hospitals, and institutions that help others. Five people give books away. One person trades at used book stores and one person is still looking for an outlet.

The regular Winner from SBB #201 comments is: #10 Di who can make a GC choice if international or book choice from the Updated ARC/Review titles or (not yet updated) Love titles - all linked near the end of the post. I'm hoping to update the book choices this week. Please let me know your choice by completing the (new) WINNER FORM.

WEEK #202 (One Question.)

Q1. Mary asks: If you could own any car ever made what would you choose??
A: We have purchased good, used sedans for the past 10 years so we don't have any car payment. :-) I like the idea of a future flying car. As far as real life - I have always wanted a Jaguar. HOWEVER- I also wanted a Mercedes and my husband and I had one for a year or so. The cost of tires and repairs was ridiculous. So right now we are sort of interested in a smart car that we could use with our mobile home. And I think it would work for my four mile drive to work. I'm just not sure how safe I might feel in such a small car.

Thanks to those who are sending in Questions. DON'T BE SHY! Surely everyone has a Q or two you'd like to ask. Input suggestions in this Suggested Question Form. At the end of each month I draw from the suggestions I used during the month and that person will get a book choice or GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions. Thanks for sending in questions! We still have a supply of questions but from the same people so hopefully others will send more in -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify to use.

Your turn to share:
Q1. Mary asks: If you could own any car ever made what would you choose??

SBB Comment Winners can choose a selection from the  Valentine and "Love" books or the February 2015 Newly Updated ARC/Review List. (My daughter pulled several of the Christmas titles to give with gift bags we made up for the nursing homes. One of these days I will get together a new box of Christmas titles.)

SBB Rules:
a) Must be a follower.
b) Share a comment on either of the two 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 through Saturday May 16, 2015 at 5 PM  central.

  4. I have always loved the very big old Rolls of the 1940's or there about. I don't know that I would want to own one, but they are beautiful.

  5. I'm not fussy about cars. As long as it takes me from point A to B with minimum hassle I'm good. I do prefer the hybrid cars which are more eco friendly.
