Give Away for the Book Obsessed


To celebrate the paperback release of Allison Hoover Bartlett's The Man Who Loved Books Too Much: The True Story of a Thief, a Detective, and a World of Literary Obsession, Meg at 1st Books is holding a Give Away of at least one copy. Enter to win by leaving a comment about any book you obssessively love on the main 1st Books blog post OR Better yet: link to the Give Away on your own blog and paste your post link into a comment on the post. Creating a link gives you a chance to win two copies--one for yourself and one to Give Away on your blog. Meg will draw a winner at noon Pacific Time on Tuesday, October 5--the paperback publication date!
My obsession is with Classic/Vintage British Mysteries. There is no way I'd ever let any of my Lord Peter Wimsey books out of my sight. Not any of the editons (and I have multiple editions of most of the novels). And the pocket size editions (published from the 30s through the 60s), don't even think about looking at, let alone touching. Those are mine! Mine! Mine! There's something about books from that era that just makes me a little crazy when it comes to possessing them.
