Sharing Beyond Books #268 Comment Giveaway September 3, 2016

Hello again and Welcome to Sharing Beyond Books, SBB!

Thanks to everyone who commented last week.

Hmm - Most of us (nine) DO NOT try things we read about in books although four commenters try recipes found in books. :-) Mystica and Marjorie like to learn history from books and Marjorie has bought more books on certain events after learning about them in a book. Only Elizabeth indicated that she will try things she reads about.

The Winner from SBB #267 comments is:#7 bn100 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 - maybe the beginning of next year, lol.] Please let me know your choice by completing the WINNER FORM.

WEEK #268
(One Question.)
Miki asks: Have you already took part in a book swap or a secret sender exchanges ( when you send something books, swag etc to someone from a list but without revealing who you are immediately)? What do you think of those??
I have done this before and it is always fun! Sadly the last couple of years the sign ups have slipped by me so I haven't participated. Maybe I will remember to sign up this year. :-)

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! The supply of questions is dwindling so share some if you think of any -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify.

Your turn to share: Miki asks: Have you already took part in a book swap or a secret sender exchanges ( when you send something books, swag etc to someone from a list but without revealing who you are immediately)? What do you think of those??

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 the question 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 September 10, 2016 at 5 PM central.

  12. I have, a version of it. But we revealed who we are in order to get the recipient's address. But of course, the package was a secret.
