Wednesday Sponsor Giveaways: Studio Calico, Shabby Straps, Simplify 101, & Songbird Ave

I've always loved Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons! Funny book! And how about Pillars of the Earth! Huge commitment of 1000 pages, but great read!

I just finished A Thousand Splendid Suns and it was incredible!

right now i spend way too much of my time reading to my 4 year old...great way to spend time together :) we just bought a pack of books at costco from little tiger press & loving each one of them. in there is a book called, "little tiger's big surprise" & it reminds me of you a bit...there is a new baby involved. however, i think simon was way more excited that the little tiger cub was :)

I have Three Cups of Tea, by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin on hold at the library. I can't wait to read it - it's supposed to be so so good!

the book: don't tell anyone
author:Peg Kehret

I love Don Piper's 90 Minutes in Heaven. Really makes you think and wonder. Great giveaways! Baby Anna is so cute!

I started reading a book last night and it was so good I read the whole thing in one night! I'm paying for it today, but it was worth it!
Lucia, Lucia by Adriana Trigiani
(two days ago I also read another book by her--Very Valentine, also very good!)
Thanks for the good question & opportunity to share my new favorite author!

I have to agree with Kristi on both _Pride and Prejudice_ (it is also my all time favorite book) and _The Time Traveller's Wife_ (the wife also happens to be a paper artist and her time travelling husband a punk rock loving librarian which is pretty perfect). For those who love Jane Austen and mysteries the Jane Austen mysteries by Stephanie Barron are very good.

I love the NEW Earth and Simple Abundance
Changed many concepts for me

"Giants in the Earth" by Ole Edvart Rolvaag.

My favorite book is probably The Inner Voice of Love by Henri J. M. Nouwen.

I really enjoyed Michael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma. Absolutely fascinating!

I've been thinking about rereading Gone With The Wind. I read it many many moons ago and loved it then, I think it will be interesting to see if my perspective changes on the characters and situations compared to what I thought 20 years ago.

photoFREEDOM and thebigpicture by Stacy Juilian. I am currently doing the LOM class and so am immersed in my pictures. And totally, excited to be working through this process.

I definitely recommend the book "Same Kind of Different as Me," by Ron Hall and Denver Moore. And I LOVE that red and white camera strap by Shabby Straps!
Congratulations on your new baby girl! She's a dolly. I've been following your life via your blog for a couple years now and have been really inspired by you. Thanks for all the give-aways you do.

My favorite book is the Bible although I don't spend near enough time reading it. And a book I was just given to read that comes highly recommended that I'm looking forward to reading next week is "same kind of different as me" by Ron Hall and Denver Moore.

My favorite book is always the last one I completed. I just finished "Factory Girls: From Village to City in a Changing China" by Leslie Chang. She really captures the way life has changed for the Chinese and the disturbing process behind so much of the world's goods. Well written.

I loved the Shack. Right now I'm reading Twilight and I think it will be a fave, as well.

i finished reading change of heart by jodi picoult. it was a really good read!

Hi Ali, One of the best, most interesting, and helpful books I have read has to be "The Traveler's Gift. . .Seven Decisions that Determine Personal Success. This book is a blend of fiction, history and inspiration! The main character encounters seven of history's most influential and
inspirational people. . .Anne Frank, Abraham Lincoln, Christopher Columbus among others. Along the journey the main character gets a glimps of life's big picture and seven bits of wisdom (from each of these historical figures) so he may confront his future!
This is a very quick read and a book you won't be able to put down! (: Enjoy.
