Martha's Bookshelf *** Friday Pick Giveaway

{photo courtesy of Flickr}

This will be the first of my FRIDAY PICK Giveaways.  I don't really have books floating around everywhere like that great photo but if you saw the pictures posted of my bookshelves and boxes you know I do have lots of books!  And that doesn't include the other eight or so boxes at my office!!
So I want to share my book bounty! (And my DH would love for me to get rid of some of my books!!)

Every Friday I will post a group of books. A winner will be drawn the next Thursday and that person will be sent the book of their choice. 

Most of these books have been gently read! Some are new that I have not read but am not likely to get to.

Since the titles look a little hard to read and I'm not sure if you can click and make this larger I'll list the tiles and authors:

Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier

Married at Midnight (Anthology) Kathleen Woodiwiss, Jo Beverley, Tanya Anne Crosby & Samantha James

A Jockey's Life by Dick Francis

Giveaway! FIVE Copies of Hope For Animals by Jane Goodall- Audio Book

HOPE FOR ANIMALS AND THEIR WORLD by Jane Goodall

BOOK DESCRIPTION:

At a time when animal species are becoming extinct on every continent and we are confronted with bad news about the environment nearly every day, Jane Goodall, one of the world's most renowned scientists, brings us inspiring news about the future of the animal kingdom. With the insatiable curiosity and conversational prose that have made her a bestselling author, Goodall-along with Cincinnati Zoo Director Thane Maynard-shares fascinating survival stories about the American Crocodile, the California Condor, the Black-Footed Ferret, and more; all formerly endangered species and species once on the verge of extinction whose populations are now being regenerated.

Interweaving her own first-hand experiences in the field with the compelling research of premier scientists, Goodall illuminates the heroic efforts of dedicated environmentalists and the truly critical need to protect the habitats of these beloved species. At once a celebration of the animal kingdom and a passionate call to arms, HOPE FOR ANIMALS THEIR WORLD presents an uplifting, hopeful message for the future of animal-human coexistence.

$15.00 GC Thank You Giveaway For Followers!!

Whoo Hoo! I am thrilled to celebrate passing 150 (152!) followers!!

This giveaway will last for two weeks. It is for only the 152 people who are following as of this post!

This will be for a $15.00 gift certificate, online or gift card, of the winner's choice so it can be accessible hopefully to international followers too!

Since everyone included in this is already a follower you only need to make One entry!  Leave your e-mail so I can contact you if you win!

But I do have a question -
Do you prefer one larger prize with one winner ($15.00 to one winner) or do you like the idea of smaller prizes and more winners ($5.00 to three winners; or $10.00 to one and $5.00 to second winner)??? I am setting up a poll so that you can let me know your answers on this! Look for the poll on the sidebar! And there will be a poll regarding multiple book giveaways too!

The contest will remain open until Wednesday December 9, 2009 at midnight central time, with the winner to be announced on Thursday morning!
