It’s that time again! Happy April Fools’ Day and welcome to the Fool for Books Giveaway Hop, hosted by I Am a Reader, Not a Writer.
Most of us, and by us I mean readers of this and other book blogs, unfortunately not us as in the wider universe, are fools for books. We are voracious readers and are happy to lose hours if not days in the pages of a good book.
(It may be April Fools’ Day, but at least I wasn’t foolish enough to be using the “Royal We” or “Us” in the previous paragraph. I still have SOME sense!
I don’t know how many of you have had this experience, but my mother always used to ask why I needed more books. After all, I already had so many! It’s impossible to explain to someone who doesn’t read oodles of books why it is so important to have choices. The new ones always look so marvelous, and the keeper shelf is, well, the KEEPER shelf. That’s why those books are there, to be kept and loved again and again.
Never mind the concept of “auto-buy” authors. I might as well be speaking in tongues.
So what books are you a fool for? Or who is on your auto-buy list? And has it changed from last year?
Answer the question for a chance at either a $10 Amazon or B&N Gift Card or the book of your choice up to $10 in value. The books will be coming from The Book Depository for any international entrants, so you’ll need to be in a location that Book Depository ships to.
