Remember my good friend, Julie??? Well, another package arrived from her yesterday and inside was one of my favorite books ever!!! See why I love Julie so much? She is always thinking of others and she knew that I would enjoy this book. Even though I read it (link to my review) a few years ago, I still appreciate her thoughtfulness in passing this along to me. I especially loved the handwritten notes inside of the book where each reader wrote a few lines about their reaction to Saving CeeCee Honeycutt.

- Tell me your "rock star" moment and get an extra entry
- U.S. readers only
- Drawing closes on the last day of September!
What a nice tribute to your friend - the post and the giveaway. I have this book, so no need to enter me. Happy Saturday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! No need to include me in the drawing as I've read the book (and bought several copies for friends) and I was lucky enough to meet Beth Hoffman in person at an author event!! I love the rock star analogy :-) So true!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet post; you are a good friend Staci. I read this one and liked it a lot as well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thing to do! Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteWell ... I was trying to surprise you and then I blow it cause you have read it all ready!! *doh* :) Slapping my forehead ;) Hopefully one of your bloggy buddies can enjoy it next :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this lovely giveaway. It would be meaningful to read this book and then give it to a friend. Rock Star moments occur when I read a book that is memorable and special. this is one. saubleb(at)gmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteBeth truly is a rock star. I love her book but love her generous and kind spirit even more. No need to enter me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea, Staci! I have heard such good things about this book but I have not read it -- I would love a chance to take part in this "shared" reading experience. I have been fortunate to have lots of "rock star" moments as I have ventured out to meet authors (who are definitely my rock stars). I've met super-star writers like Diana Gabaldon, but my favorite story is when I gifted Lauren Willig with a charm bracelet that I made for her, and the bracelet featured some of the covers of the books from the Pink Carnation series. She wore the bracelet to the RITA awards ceremony and won! She wore it again to another awards ceremony, and won again! She's posted on her blog that she will never go to another awards ceremony without wearing the charm bracelet I made for her. :)

I loved this one :D Must read more!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool! I love the idea of writing notes in the book and passing it one. I've read this book twice now and it is on my all time favorite read list. Beth is awesome. Don't enter me.
ReplyDeleteNo need to enter me, but wow, what a tribute to a wonderful writer. I loved CeeCee!
ReplyDeleteWell ... this made me teary-eyed! Thank you so much for this truly surprising and touching post, Staci. To know that CeeCee's story has been passed around and that people have taken the time to write comments (in the book and throughout the blogosphere) is beyond anything I could have imagined when I began my journey into print. An author couldn't feel more privileged.
ReplyDeleteI consider y'all girlfriends and am grateful that each and every one of you came into my life. I've learned so much from my blogging friends, and my TBR list is now officially out of control because of your recommendations!
I loved this book too (so no need to enter me). I totally agree about how sweet and kind Beth is! And I like the idea of people adding their own not before passing it on to the next person.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely post, I love how you've included everyone's thoughts. I read it in 2010, totally loved it. Definitely an all-time favourite.
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea! I do have this book on my list to read, I bookmarked it when you reviewed it. I better bump it up!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome gift and great idea! Beth is the sweetest and I loved this one. And meeting her, of course. She is just as warm in person as she comes across on the web :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea! I have seen Beth's comments on several blogs but have yet to read her book.
ReplyDeleteLoved this post, what a great idea to share comments and the book!!!! It's like a reading circle/round robin:) I adore Beth, she is an amazing author and kind and thoughtful person. I was fortunate to meet her at one of her early book signings. No need to enter me, I had to comment:)
