Dear Reader,
Truly it is as much fun to give, as it is to receive. I offer giveaways at the book club, readers win, and then they write the nicest thank yous. If you've never entered one of the giveaways you should--someone always wins. Next time it could be you. (Enter the giveaway at the end of today's column.)
The summer fun giveaway winners:
Sunny-colored polka dot picnic tablecloth, Amy W.
Fun Cupcake toppers, Kathryn L.
The Miniaturist DVD from PBS Masterpiece, Kim B.
Ten winners of random books from my bookshelf: Michelle C., Rebecca R., Jo Ann W., Kara L., Beverly M., Nancy R., Karen P., Penny T., Andrea C. and Brian C.
Guest authors gave away their books and a gift card: The winners of The Faith of Dolly Parton, by Guest Author Dudley Delffs: Emily C., Nancy R., Bonny C., Donna C., Susan G., Betty B., Peggy T., Angela N., Diane C., and Anne B.

A Thank You From Guest Author Shari Randall:
"Suzanne, hope this finds you well. Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed connecting with the readers who responded to my August 14th column about the book I can never give away. One woman told me she remembered the Hardy Boys Detective Handbook and that my column inspired her to order a copy. It was heartwarming to meet some of the members of the book loving community you have created." -- Many thanks, Shari
Book club reader Iris H., sent a delightful, old fashioned, handwritten thank you note to me:
"Hello, Suzanne this is just a small note to thank you for the book. I love that you encourage the world to read. Thank you for all you do and I hope this added a little sunshine to your day." -- Iris H.
If you've never entered one of the giveaways, now's your chance. Enter to win a ruled notebook journal. (Start writing. I'll be announcing the Write a DearReader Writing Contest soon.) To enter, click here.
Thanks for reading with me. It's so good to read with friends.
