GIVEAWAY: 3 copies of Apologize, Apologize by Elizabeth Kelly

February 18th, 2010

I’ve got a great giveaway for 3 paperback copies of Apologize, Apologize by Elizabeth Kelly up for grabs courtesy of Valerie at Hachette Book Group. I’m really looking forward to reading this one myself. I think this book would make a great book for your book club to read as well. Take a look at what it’s about…

APOLOGIZE, APOLOGIZE! takes us into the perversely charmed world of the Flanagans and their son, Collie (who has the questionable good fortune to be named after a breed of dog). Coming of age on Martha’s Vineyard, he struggles to find his place within his wildly wealthy, hyper-articulate, resolutely crazy Irish-Catholic family: a philandering father, incorrigible brother, pigeon-racing uncle, radical activist mother, and domineering media mogul grandfather (accused of being a murderer by Collie’s mother).

There’s always a lot to talk about when you have family dynamics such as these! The great thing is that Hachette Book Group even provides a Reading Guide to help your book club along in their discussions. I bet winning a copy to get a hard start for your book club would be awesome as well!

GIVEAWAY DETAILS

I have 3 paperback copies of Apologize, Apologize by Elizabeth Kelly up for grabs. To enter…

  • For 1 entry leave me a comment with a way to contact you.
  • For 2 entries follow my blog. If you already do, thank you, but please let me know in your comment. I do know a lot of you but it’s better to be safe than sorry when it comes to my memory.
  • For 3 entries, blog or tweet this giveaway and spread the word.

This giveaway is open to US & Canadian residents only (no PO boxes) as the books will be shipped directly from the publisher. I will draw for the winners on Saturday March 13, 2010. Good luck to you all!
