BLOG CANDY and a Review!!!!!

*this post will remain at the top of my blog until the deadline is over for this blog candy. please scroll down for newer posts. thank you
That's right!!! It is BLOG CANDY time again!!!! This time I was asked if I would read this book and give a review of it on my blog. Of course I said "YES" right away since first, it was a book about scrapbooking and second, they sent it to me FREE!!!!! Well I read it (I couldn't put it down) and decided to spread the wealth with my fellow blog readers. So all you need to do is leave me a comment to this post telling me if you LOVE to read or not and on June 20th at noon (my time) I will randomly pick a number and that number of post will be the lucky winner of the book along with a jumbo clip bookmark I made. Isn't that just the cutest bookmark?? Well it could be yours along with the book if you leave me a comment on this post by June 20th.

This book was awesome!!!! I could so relate to the main character and how she found so many good friends through scrapbooking. I couldn't put this book down!!! This author kept the story going and kept me wanting more!!!! I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good book.

Was this book fact or fiction? I was born with a book in my hand as was my daughter. I run into things because there is always some reading material in front of my face, but I never read fiction ever. Too many books so little time.

Marilyn said...

Sounds like a really awesome book!! So generous of you to give it away! I am a born reader - I think that is part of the reason why I love blogging so much b/c I love to read what everyone has written LOL!! Thanks for sharing this blog candy with us!!

Almost as much as stampin'!

My Mom was a librarian and we all learned to read well before school. My three sisters and I were quite a sight, toddling along after her, nearly hidden under our stacks of books.

The love of reading will enrich your life (and your children's lives), beyond measure. I simply don't understand why anyone DOESN'T read for pleasure.

So, ummm, yes, I like to read a little! LOLOL!

~Hugs, Deb

Oh, this book looks good! How awesome that it's about scrapbooking! I love to read. I probably spend way too much time reading though =). Thanks for the chance to win!

Cindy said...

That sounds like a really fun read.

Areletha said...

Love to read , but I'm so computer illiterate - I had to come over here from the Sketch 101 site to find out what blog candy was! Looks like a really good book!

spenstk said...

My daughter and I were also born with books in our hands. In my daughters case---multiple books. She's always read more than 1 book at a time. We're reading our way through Jane Austin this summer. I couldn't possibly imagine life without books! Thanks for the chance to win.

Look at you, receiving freebies for review! A stamping celebrity being sought out for product endorsements... :) I used to read a lot more -- and I do love it -- but with an almost three year old and one on the way... I need about 15 more hours in a day! :)

LisaNRoxy said...

I LOVE to read! It looks like a good book! How sweet of yout o share!

thynner said...

I have been dying to read Kathleen's book. I would love it. Thanks for the opportunity. That's awesome!

doverdi said...

I am so addicted to reading. I read 7 books in the month of May (mostly Sophie Kinsella's books) and still found time to scrap. I'm not happy unless I have a book on the go and then the minute I finish one, I'm digging through my pile of unread books to find a new one to start. lol

Thanks for the chance to win. It sounds like a good read.

Well, Helloooo from fellow Got Sketch classmate. Thanks for the tip on the book. I had not heard of this one yet.

Jana Emmert said...

I am an avid reader. I especially love mysteries that have a female protagonist. I even read a few series that involve crafting too!

Kadie Labadie said...

Tiffany: How wonderful that you are offering such a fabulous blog candy. I LOVE to read and would love to have this book to take with me on vacation in August. Count me in-sounds like a DELIGHTFUL read.

Thanks for sharing the title and you will for sure make someone VERY HAPPY (hope it's me!). Kadie

Oh boy do I love to read! It's one of my favorite past times, even when I was a kid my nose was in a book.

Monika said...

I do love to read a good book. Especially over the summer. I'll have to go look for it before I go to the beach in July. I saw your post on the Got Sketch class and came over to check out your blog. You have lots of cute stuff. I'll be at convention in July can't wait for that to get here.
Happy Stampin',

I LOVE to read! This book looks very interesting too. I read everyday on my lunch hour and at night in bed. Can't get enough of books!

CAKVD said...

OMG, this book looks like it is right up my alley! I love to read, but usually it is to my 3 year old!! I love nonfiction self help books or scrapbooking books. Thanks!

My two loves - scrapbooking and reading! What more could I ask for???

Becky said...

I do love to read, but find it hard to find the time. I usually try to read when I go to bed, but find that I only get a page or two read before I fall asleep. LOL!
This sounds like a fun read!

Lynn G said...

Hi Tiffany! It's Lynn G from GS101. I have to say that reading is probably my FIRST love with scrapbooking a VERY close second. I read all sorts of books from chick lit to murder mystery. I just love the thought of cozying up with a good book and cup of coffee. You are too sweet ot offer this book on your blog! :)

Hi! I'm looking in from the got sketch forum. Love your cards!

Jenn D said...

I love to read! I just picked up 2 stamping books at the library yesterday. But I love all books. The one I finished last night was the last Jennifer Wiener book.

Brooke's Blogspot said...

I totally love to read! right now I am reading Janet Evanovich's "Wife for hire". To cute! And Dr Kevin Lemans; "Making your children mind without loosing your's" So good!!! I am very interested in reading this book, I hope I win!

Vintage Scrapper said...

OMGoodness, is this a novel? How fun to read (which I love) and to read about scrapping....to fun!

JESSICA said...

Of course, I want to read this book!
And yes...it is the cutest bookmark!

kraftykathy1 said...

I usually catch up on my reading during summer, by the pool, beach, at night (since TV is all re-runs).
But I do love to read, my son and I are going read some of the same books this summer and have our own little book club discussions.

Carrie Gaskin said...

That is pretty cool candy! Yep, love to read. Once I find a book, I just can't think of anything else. Actually, SU Convention is my favourite time to read. I've got no kids or hubby with me and i can take my time and enjoy! I save up books just for the trip!

Anonymous said...

Hey Tiffany-Lovin' the candy! I'm not much of a reader as of late-but the book sounds like a great one to dive into. The bookmark is awesome-great job (as always).

Tami said...

I love to read, but rarely have the time; however, I have wanted to pick up some books about my favorite pastime, and this one looks like a great one to start with! Besides, I need something to keep my mind off of the plane ride I am about to take with my husband in July to the Bahamas! This would be ideal! Thanks for the opportunity to win! How much fun is this!

KJ said...

I just finished the book this weekend! What a great one!

Beth said...

I love to read! I didn't win this book at your crop, maybe I will be lucky this time!

Jenn said...

i read a TON, especially in the summer time at the beach or the winter when i am stuck inside--LOL
this book looks awesome!

Jenn Greeley said...

Oh yes! I totally love to read. Something I don't get to do as often as I like since I have a 2 year old. I have several recommendations on my blog if you are interested.

I love to read, although with working FT and 2 kids under 4 it doesn't happen much anymore! But I SWEAR I would make time to read this book! -DebLong

Stampin' Cindy said...

I am in fact a reader... reading fell to the way-side for a couple years when I was a teenager, and then as I got older and hadn't been doing it, the fact that I was too busy meant it never crossed my mind. However this year, I went and renewed my very expired library card!!! YAY ME!!
