Good Luck!One World - One Heart is hosted by
Lisa. The last time I checked, there were nearly
700 bloggers participating. Please visit the other blogging participants, too !!!
This is a message from Lisa, and after reading, I decided to join the circle & participate:
"The whole idea behind doing this and trying to get as many as possible to join in, was and is to meet new and wonderful people. Bloggers come from all walks of life, all socioeconomic backgrounds, all areas of the world, female, male......some are artists exclusively, some dabble, some are professionals in various areas, some are stay at home parents, some are teachers, some are very young and some are up in years. The common denominator in blogging is that we all have stories to tell....be it through visual means or life stories or the day-to-day or art work or handwork of varying kinds or poetry and journaling. We can be inspired or inspire others by finding a blog and taking the time to read/see someones story. Often times a spark happens....this palpable spark of recognition through kindred understanding and shared passions in life. It is in those times when we take a moment to comment and comment again.......when those comments are reciprocated a discovery is made that we share commonolaties which connect us sight unseen. Sometimes we may live on separate continents or at either end of the same country or even discover you hail from the same general area. By paying attention, by connecting with others, we are creating a circle of amazing individuals who can literally enhance our lives and we can enhance theirs."Hurry ... there is time for you to participate, too!!

How wonderful to meet a fellow reader! :) The last book I finished was Sarah Addison Allen's "The Sugar Queen" -- a delight story with lots of magic in it. The author's first novel "Garden Spells" is equally wonderful -- I strongly recommend that one. Anyway, thanks for the chance to win a book -- one can NEVER have enough books. :)

Wonderful giveaway - there are few things better in life than a good book.
I always have at least one book on the go. I just finished The Moonlit Cage by Linda Holeman - seriously one of my all time faves now. Such rich imagery and character development.
I am currently reading Weight of Water by Anita Shreve, one of my fave authors.

Funny, I'm looking at your first comment-I just finished the same book tonight, Sugar Queen. I read it because the first one was really good, and different from most books I've read lately. Anyway, I also am never without a book to read, and would happy to be included in your giveaway for one I have not read yet!
Sounds like a nice book. I love the book "Me and Emma" by Elizabeth Flock and anything by Karen Kingsbury. Thanks for entering me!

thanks for the chance!
I love to read!!! And, I agree with Birgit....one can never have enough books!!!
I have finished several over the last couple of weeks and one in particular was "Tell me where it Hurts" by Dr Nick Trout....about a Vet and his 'patients'. Since my cat just had cancer removed from her third eyelid.....I was really intrigued by Vets and what they go through on a daily basis.
I am so enjoying this event! Come on over to mine, too!

Hi, I like your list of books on your blog. You asked which was my favorite book. I think the best book I've listened to in a very long time (I love audio books) was James McBride's The Song Yet Sung. Leslie Uggams read it and it was superb. I also just discovered the Outlander Series by Diane Gabaldon. What fun those books are! Also, thanks for visiting my giveaway #455 on OWOH or judystreger.blogspot.com
I'd love a chance to win a good book!

Hello from Sydney, Australia!
I've recently gotten back into reading after a long time of disliking doing so (I guess I can thank my English teachers at school for giving us horrible books to read! LOL)
One book that I've read recently that I enjoyed (mainly because of the imagery used) was The Blood of Flowers by Anita Amirrezvani. I recommend giving that a read. Another one I really enjoyed was The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson - fantastic read! One of my favourites at the moment.
Anyway...can you please enter me in the drawing for one of these books? :) Thank you so much for your generosity!
All the best,
