OCOC Giveaway: All about Jane

Another three-fer this week, the theme is some sort of connection to Jane Austen...

Becky liked it, as did Bookfool. (And, to be completely honest, so did I.) You know you want a chance to read this, too.
The review that made me want the book, and the place where I won it from. Just passing along the love...

There's another giveaway for this book; here's another chance to enjoy a book with one of the best titles. (It's a good book, too...)
Leave me a comment with which book you'd like to be entered in the drawing for (yes, it can be for one, two, or all three). Also, if you feel so inclined, with the name of a "sequel" or modernization or other book connected to Jane Austen that you've really liked. Like always, the drawing is open to both US/Canada and international readers, and we'll pick a name out of the bowl Friday morning at 8 a.m., CDT.

20 observations:

I would love to read JANE AUSTEN RUINED MY LIFE -- the title alone is terrific! I really enjoyed CONFESSIONS OF A JANE AUSTEN ADDICT!

wordlily said...

I'd love to win Jane Austen Ruined My Life and The Darcys and the Bingleys.

Lahni said...

I'd love to win any one of them. I have NEVER read any "sequels" but I do love Jane Austen and would love to give any of these books a try!

Speed Reader said...

I just found your blog and these books are look great! But if I had to choose, I'd probably go for JANE AUSTEN RUINED MY LIFE first. It sounds right up my alley! :)

Silvia said...

I haven't read any of Jane's books but I've herad good things about her so I would like to read "Ruined my life" by Jane Austen.

Ramya said...

I haven't read any of the books but I've been reading mixed reviews about all of them! Would love to be entered for all three!

Thanks,

Shelley said...

I would love to be entered for all three. I have read everything by Austen, but no modernizations. I just don't know where to start! So maybe one of these would be perfect.
Thanks,

I just stumbled upon this blog and came a across an Austen sequel, now that is nice :D
I would sure love to read that one.
So I am in.

Cheryl said...

I'd love to be entered for Jane Austen Ruined My Life - what a great title! (I'm international, but do have a US address!) Thanks!

sphinx63 said...

I would like to read Pemberley by the Sea. I think all 3 sound great!

mjmbecky said...

The Darcy's and Bingley's has been on my list for awhile and would love to read it. Have you read the Pamela Aidan books? They tell Pride and Prejudice from Mr. Darcy's perspective. (I reviewed the first book on my blog, although my emotional reaction to the novel might outweigh its actual value!)

I've actually read a bunch of sequels, and some I've liked, and others not so much. Amanda Grange's retellings through diaries for each male hero is kind of a cute idea. Some move slower than others though. If I think of more, I'll share...

I have not read any of the Jane Austen sequels so would be open to winning any of them. Great giveaway!

I'd love to be entered to win JANE AUSTEN RUINED MY LIFE. My favorite sequel is The Darcys & The Bingleys. Ok, so it's the only Austen sequel I've read but still it's a great one!

Llehn said...

I would love to be entered for the drawing of all three books! I do own a couple of Jane Austen's books so these books will be a great complement.

I would love to be entered for all three books. I'm always on the lookout for a good read for me and for my book club!

the epic rat said...

I would like either The Darcys & The Bingleys (that sounds great!) or Jane Austen Ruined My Life.

Hmmm, modernizations - Prada & Prejudice (YA), Seducing Mr Darcy (the story just cracks me)

I was wondering if it's okay if I enter, since I won a book a few weeks back from you. If I'm allowed, I'd love to win Jane Austen Ruined My Life.

As for modernization, the new Pride & Prejudice with zombies sounds like a fun read.

Suey said...

Pemberley by the Sea please!

And I like Austenland for a modernization.

Fun giveaway! Sign me up for all 3. They all look good and I love Jane Austen remakes.

I really liked AUSTENLAND (funny and cute) and also MR DARCY TAKES A WIFE (very in keeping with Austen's tone but much much steamier!). and I'm excited about Pride & Prejudice & Zombies. :)

Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
