Comment #38 : Gayla
Congrats!
Here’s how the giveaways during Fall Into Reading 2009 book giveaways work:
Every Thursday, I will post about a new book that’s up for grabs (occasionally, there may be more than one book!). If it sounds like a book you’d like and you want to be eligible to win it, just leave a comment on the post and I’ll put your name in the virtual hat. I’ll leave the post open for comments until the following Wednesday at noon. I’ll then randomly pick a commenter and announce that person as the winner when I put up the next giveaway.
Also, I apologize to any international readers, but these giveaways are only open to readers in the U.S. or Canada.
Disclosure/disclaimer: The books for the Fall Into Reading giveaways are graciously provided by the publisher. I have not had a chance to read them, so can not offer an endorsement or critique. All book information is provided by the publisher.
This week’s giveaway:
From the publisher:
Eighteen-year-old Astrid Bjorklund has been studying medicine under Dr. Elizabeth Bjorklund’s direction and dreams of joining her practice in Blessing. But when a missionary arrives and tells of the need for medical ministry in Africa, he seems to look directly at her. Could God be calling her to go to Africa?
Joshua Landsverk left Blessing two years ago, but he’s never forgotten Astrid. Returning to town he seeks to court her, and love begins to bloom. When the opportunity opens for Astrid to go to Chicago for further training, she finds it difficult to leave home — and Joshua. They agree to correspond, but after receiving only one letter from him, she learns he’s left town–again. Believing Joshua no longer loves her, Astrid makes an impetuous, heart-wrenching decision. Will she regret the choice she’s made?

Lauraine Snelling is one of my favorite authors! Met her this summer at a library function but haven’t seen this book! She’s really an enjoyable, down-to-earth woman. I think she’d make a great next door neighbor and I’d love to read this book!
My mother-in-law loves Lauraine Snelling and I keep meaning to put her on my list to read! Thanks for the reminder!
I’d love to give it a try.
Stop by website to see my first month of Fall Into Reading’s reading:

It’s been a good month!
I don’t think I have read this author, and I’d love to give her a try. Thank you!
Hi…I’ve never read a book from her but the plot is interesting. I hope I get the chance to win this and widen my horizon to the limited authors I read…
I love Lauraine Snelling. I read a series of her books many years ago. They were very good. I’d love to win this book.
Can you believe I’ve never read this author? I would love to win the book!
This book has some wonderful reviews and I’ve heard great things about the author, so why is it this isn’t on my list and I don’t think I’ve ever read any of her books? Amazing how that happens sometimes.
never read anything by this author, would love to win though
The books premise sounds great. I would like an opportunity to win a copy.
Congrats to Gayla!
This book looks intriguing. I’d like to know what if she regrets her choice.
Thank you for the entry.
It’s been awhile since I read a Snelling book. I’d love to have one to read this winter. And since the winter is fast approaching, the soon the better. Please put me on the list!!
Would enjoy reading this book…Thanks for the opportunity
I’ve never read anything by this author. I love finding new authors to follow. Thanks for all of the many books you give away.
After three years of entering, I really hope this is my turn to win! I have read every single one of this series - they’re fantastic. I’m so glad my mother-in-law started me on them!
I have not read her books, but from the comments above, it sounds like a good idea to start! Thanks!
