I'm Giving Away Twenty Books

It's here!  My giveaway, which is part of the Great Book Giveaway Bonanza, has begun!  Please go to this page to find links to all the other blogs that are also hosting book giveaways right now.  Enter as many as you like!



Please note!  You DO NOT have to be hosting a giveaway yourself to be eligible to win books from me here.  I will give you an extra entry if you are part of the GBGB, but that's NOT the only way to enter.

Once again, I'm giving away twenty books.  How do I end up with all these extra books?  Sigh.



(You're going to count those books and point out that there are only 19 books pictured, and I just said 20 books.  I've added one since I took the photo.)

Like last year, I'm breaking them up by genre, since I know people who like poetry might not like mysteries, and so on.  You can enter as many or as few of the giveaways as you want.  I'll be drawing one name per book, but obviously some people might win more than one book.  Also, if you choose to blog about this giveaway and/or the GBGB to earn extra entries, you can just blog about it once -- that counts just fine for multiple giveaways.  You don't have to post six different times if you want to enter all six giveaways :-)


This IS open world-wide!

This giveaway runs through Wednesday, June 24th.  I'll draw the winners on Thursday, June 25th.  PLEASE be sure you provide a CURRENT email address to the Rafflecopter widgets so that if you win and I email you to ask for your mailing address, you get the message.  Any winner who does not respond within one week (by Thursday, July 2nd) will be disqualified, and I will pick a new winner.  


Be aware that all these books are USED, except the blank books, and some of them do have things written in them.  Again, all the blank books are NEW and have nothing written in them.  If I've reviewed a book on my blog, I'll link its title to my review so you know what I thought of it.


Enough.  Here are the books.



Adventures


Fear is the Key by Alistair MacLean -- paperback in nice condition.  My favorite Alistair MacLean book, all about underwater treasure and assassins and someone avenging murders.  Probably contains some mild bad language.

Master and Commander by Patrick O'Brian -- trade paperback in lovely condition.  First book in a series that I adore and hope to reread next year.  Warning:  they do have some language and allusions to adult situations, though nothing dreadful.


Where Eagles Dare by Alistair MacLean -- paperback in nice condition.  My second-favorite Alistair MacLean book, such a rollicking good time, all about WWII, with Allied spies trying to stop Nazis from getting info about D-Day.  (There's a delicious movie version too, with Clint Eastwood and Richard Burton, which I greatly enjoy.)  Also probably contains some mild bad language, and a little innuendo IIRC.

a Rafflecopter giveaway


Blank Books


1 smallish blank book with rainbow-y stripes.  Paperback, ruled pages.  5 1/2" tall and 4" wide.

1 medium blank book with genuine leather cover.  Ruled pages.  7" tall and 5" wide.

1 larger blank book with "Shakespeare never tweeted a sonnet." on the cover.  Paperback, ruled pages.  8 1/2" tall and 6" wide.



Classics


The Black Arrow by Robert Louis Stevenson -- paperback, somewhat worn.  Rousing good story of knights and derring-do, etc.

Damon Runyon Favorites -- paperback, quite worn.  I love Runyon's quirky style, and I discovered recently that I have two copies of this book, just with different covers.  This was published in 1945 and says it is "a wartime book" and published in compliance with government mandates about paper usage.  Don't know who Damon Runyon is?  The musical Guys and Dolls is based on one of his stories.

Dear Enemy by Jean Webster -- trade paperback, some worn edges.  This is the sequel to Daddy-Long-Legs, but I haven't read it yet.

North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell -- trade paperback, somewhat worn.  Romance, class conflict, friends, families -- this book has it all :-)  NOT about the American Civil War, in case you didn't know.  This is what the Richard Armitage BBC miniseries is based on, and it's magnificent.

a Rafflecopter giveaway


Mysteries


And be a Villain by Rex Stout -- paperback, pretty nice condition.  One of the Nero Wolfe mysteries I love so much.  This one is about a radio talk show guest who dies while on the air, and of course Wolfe gets called in to solve the case.

Friday the Rabbi Slept Late by Harry Kemelman -- paperback, has a few marks inside and a scuffed up cover.  This is the first of the Rabbi Small mysteries, published in the 1960s, which I've read I think 3 of, and which are about a Jewish rabbi who solves crimes.

In the Teeth of the Evidence by Dorothy L. Sayers -- paperback, nice condition.  I haven't read this particular book, but it's a Lord Peter Wimsey mystery, and those are always amusing and entertaining.


The Seven-Per-Cent Solution by Nicholas Meyer -- hardcover, with a dust jacket, and my book plate in the inside cover.  Wonderful Sherlock Holmes pastiche, one of the best, all about Holmes' cocaine addiction and how he overcomes it with the help of none other than Sigmund Freud.

The West End Horror by Nicholas Meyer -- hardcover, ex-library book with attendant markings.  A sequel to The Seven-Per-Cent Solution, and also good, though I don't like it nearly so well as TSPCS.  This one involves Jack the Ripper, as I recall, though I haven't read it for several years.


a Rafflecopter giveaway


Poetry


Paradise Lost:  Books I and II by Milton -- hardcover, ex-library book, with attendant stickers and markings.  Old!  The copyright for this edition is 1898.

The Selected Poetry of Keats -- paperback, from 1966, in fairly nice condition.

The Sonnets:  Poems of Love by William Shakespeare -- hardcover, with dust jacket that shows some wear.  Pages are beautifully clean.

a Rafflecopter giveaway


Westerns


Gunfighters of the Old West -- hardcover, quite large, part of a Time-Life series.  Wonderful non-fiction account of what real gunfighters were like, from the Gunfight at the OK Corral to the Daltons to the James brothers, and on.  Filled with photos and paintings, and completely awesome.  I've been collecting this series as I find them, and accidentally got two of this one.  If you like learning about the Old West, I can't recommend this highly enough.

The Virginian by Owen Wister -- hardcover, ex-library book, with attendant markings.  Often considered the first true western novel, written by a friend of President Teddy Roosevelt, and so delightful.  All about a young woman who goes west to teach school and falls for a ranch foreman, and so on.

  1. Goodness, Hamlette, you are too good! TWENTY BOOKS.
    I'm so sorry I cannot actually be part of the great giveaway (the cost is too pricey for me, especially as I would want to be able to ship to USA, which is where more of my bloggy friends life) but I'm delighted that I'm still allowed to enter.

    Blank Books - I LOVE blank books dearly. :-)
    1st choice would be the leather-covered blank book (I would be *so* thrilled to get that one. ;-P) and the 2ond choice would be the cute rainbow-striped blank book.

  2. Twenty books! I am impressed. I'm so sorry I'm going to be gone so much of June-otherwise I would have loved to join in hosting this giveaway. I did have one question-could I still enter in your giveaway even though I'm not hosting one?

    1. CGrace, of course you can still enter! I did set it up so people hosting giveaways can get an extra entry, but you can still enter regardless.

    2. Sheesh. Just read the post again and realized that you already mentioned this in your post. Need to work on my reading for comprehension, huh? :)

    3. CGrace, this post does have a *lot* of info in it, so I'm not shocked you missed one small paragraph :-)

  3. YAY YAY YAY!!!!! I'm so excited for this!

    Wow, twenty books! *Emma's head starts spinning in delight*

    Like Naomi, I ADORE blank books! I go through them like crazy. I'm really liking the looks of the brown one. My second choice'd be the striped one.

    For classics, my first choice would be North and South (I've never read it!), and my second would be Dear Enemy.

    And here we come to the really good part....WESTERNS!!!! I'm squealing in delight. I reaaalllly want The Virginian. Do I get extra entries if I can quote it? "When you call me that, smile. That way I'll know we're still friends." :-D And the Gunfighters book looks totally awesome as well.

    Wow, thanks so much for hosting this! I'm really excited. :-D

    P.S. Do you need my email address again, or do you still have it?

    1. Emma, the Rafflecopter provides me with the email address you used to sign into it with, which is one of the things I like best about it -- nobody else ever sees people's email addresses, they're never available publicly.

      My favorite line from The Virginian has always been, "Stand on your laigs, you pole cat, and tell 'em you're a liar!" For some reason, that makes me bounce with joy.

    2. Hm, that's funny, I didn't sign into it, but still it worked. Yeah, that is really nice.

    3. Emma, if you've used Rafflecopter before, it'll remember you.

  4. This is really great of you ... I wish I could participate, but 1) don't know that I have money for the postage and 2) Our books are in a mess due to the move ... ah, me. I hate moving.

    Blank Books: Anything but the rainbow-striped one.
    Mysteries: Rex Stout first, West-End Horror second.

    And thanks!

    Adventure: Master and commander or Fear is the Key
    Blank: The leather book or the Shakespeare one
    Classics: North and South or the Black Arrow

  6. This is so, so generous, Hamlette! I only entered the Western giveaway, & my first choice in that section would be The Virginian -- which sounds EXCELLENT. Thank you for this! x

    ReplyDelete
  7. Oh! Thanks so much for the great giveaway!
    Poetry: I'd be most interested in the Sonnets, and then either of the others for second.
    By the way, I enjoyed following the Little Women read along, I was swamped with studies for most of it, so I didn't join, but it was fun just to observe.
    Thanks again for doing this! :)

  8. This is awesome, Hamlette--thanks so much for doing it!!! I entered the classics section--where my first choice would be North and South--and the poetry section--where my first choice would be Keats.

    So exciting! Books are great :)

    ReplyDelete
  9. Okay, at least I THINK I entered both sections. I know I did the classics one, and I'm not sure if the thing got the message for the poetry one. (Sorry, I've never done one of these before :) )

    ReplyDelete
  10. Ah, this looks epic! :) I wish shipping rates weren't so awfully high, especially since I gave away a bunch of books while I was packing up my library (book that would've been perfect for a giveaway of my own), but I am going to enter at least one or two. :)

    Adventure books: #1 - Where Eagles Dare, #2 - Master & Commander
    Blank books: #1 - Shakespeare, #2 - leather
    Classics: #1 - N&S, #2 - Dear Enemy
    Westerns: The Virginian :)

  11. To echo everyone else, this is fantastic, Hamlette. I salute you!:D

    For the blank category: the rainbow or the Shakespeare one, but I like both about equally:)

    For the poetry category, my first choice would be the Keats one, and my second the Shakespeare.

    1. Sarah Margaret, what movie did you watch about Keats? I'm intrigued.

      The leather journal... I don't even remember where I got it. I must confess that I am addicted to journals, and I had 9 waiting to get used, so I decided to pare that down a bit and give some away here. I've had that one for several years -- at least 5 -- and I don't know where I got it anymore. Which means I know it wasn't a gift, as I would remember that and probably have inscribed it so I'd remember for sure who gave it to me.

      Nice to "meet" you!

      Delete
    2. It is called "Bright Star" it's a newer movie. We just watched it a few nights ago. It was a little sad..other than a few inappropriate things it was a wonderful movie! :D

      lol. I have three at the moment..anything with paper I must have it. ;)

      Nice to "meet" you as well! I followed. <3

    3. Sarah Margaret, that sounds intriguing! I'll have to look for it at the library. Thanks! I look forward to getting to know you better here in the future :-)

  13. Shakespeare, then leather. :)

    ReplyDelete
  14. In Blank, I'd love the leather notebook. I've been looking for one like that for a while. Second choice would be the Shakespeare tweet notebook.

    In Classics, definitely North and South. That book is absolutely amazing, and I haven't been able to procure a copy yet. Dear Enemy would probably be my second choice.

    And in poetry, Shakespeare's Sonnets. :)

    Thanks, Hamlette!

  15. 1 choice would be the rainbow striped blank book.
    2 choice would be the leather covered one.

    Classic: Dear Enemy
    Mystery: And be a Villain
    Poetry: The Selected Poetry of Keats
    Westerns: Gunfighters of the Old West. This was a hard choice, but real stories won out over fiction. I knew the Virginian was a show, but I didn't know there was a book.

    In the 'Classics' category, I would LOVE North and South by E. Gaskell...second choice would be Dear Enemy by Jean Webster:)
    And in the blank books category, I would love the one with the leather bound cover:)

    Thank you for a chance to win!
    Have a great day!
