I know you all like cute bags and book shopping, and with the response to prior giveaways involving books and bags, and with the most excellent results of sale shopping, I have another Kate Spade tote and a bookstore giftcard to give away!
(I’ll be honest – it’s really fun to plan giveaways and pick out things that I am pretty sure you’ll be excited about.)
I have a very cute Kate Spade tote bag, the Gallery Drive Small Harmony in multi – which is a print made of overlapping grey and pink polka dots on a black background.
Isn’t it adorable? And it’s plenty big to hold all sorts of necessary things. Here are the official specs:
- 9.9″ (25.14cm) high x 11.9″ (30.22cm) wide x 6.2″ (15.74cm) deep
- handle drop is 9″ (that’s the space between the top of the handle and the top of the bag itself – and that’s plenty of room to put this tote over your shoulder)
- it’s not leather – it’s glazed fabric so it’s sturdy enough to stand up on its own, but not too heavy to carry
And, since there’s plenty of room inside, I’m including a $50.00 giftcard to the bookstore of the winner’s choosing. Woo! Fill it with books! All the books!
Standard disclaimers apply: I’m not being compensated for this giveaway except that I got to go shopping online which means I didn’t have to wear shoes or real pants. Void where prohibited. Open to international residents where permitted by applicable law. Must be over 18 and ready to carry some or all of the things, including the books you like best. Stop drop and roll. In the event of an actual clearance sale, all items will be immediately placed in the shopping cart and all discount codes available worldwide will be automatically applied (wouldn’t that be nice). Mind the gap and the handle drop, too. Comments will close Friday 8 July 2016 and winner announced same day. Please note that due to international travel, prize will be shipped after July 16, 2016.
Ready to enter? Leave a comment and let me know what book you’d buy first if you won. Good luck!
ETA: We have a winner: Peggy H! Congratulations, Peggy, and thank you to everyone who entered!
I’d probably buy the book called The Radium Girls. It sounds so interesting, and I’d love to hear about their fight for justice–I just know I’m going to get really torn up about it!
I’d buy Prince of Shadows by Tes Hilaire.
I would buy Mary Balogh’s re-published backlist books, starting with Heartless! The bag is adorable!!
Captive of the Labyrinth by Mary Jo Ignoffo. It’s a biography of Sarah Winchester.
I will purchase the new Rachel Gibson Just Kiss Me being release at the end of this month.
I would buy Sarina Bowen’s “Bittersweet.” Thanks for the giveaway.
Soooo many books on my wish list, but I’d probably spring for one of the pricey needlework-related books (like Anna Richland’s book on Tudor and Stuart fashion, which would just about be covered by the gift certificate). Thanks for the offer, Sarah, and Happy Fourth of July to my fellow Americans today.
I adore polka dots. I would buy all the books in Toni Magee Causey’s Bobbie Faye series
Does one have to click on getting notified of comments to find out if one has won?
John Sanford or Nora Roberts newest. Both are a win win.
I’d probably snag THIS SAVAGE SONG by Victoria Schwab first.
Masha Gessen’s Putin biography The Man With No Face and The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie because I need it in hardcopy.
Michael Scott’s new book “Ancient Worlds: An Epic History of East and West” is first on my “to buy” list. 🙂
Come As You Are would probably be my first purchase- it’s been on my TBR list forever! And then there’s a new Maria Semple coming out, according to a certain podcast I listen to…
I would love to win this! The first book I would buy is Bay of Sighs by Nora Roberts.
I would get The Immortal Who Loved Me by Lynsay Sands (Argeneau Series) I am a few books behind. Thank you for the awesome giveaway.
i like to browse… so i’m not sure… but i have been wanting to read laura florand’s latest 🙂
Since I don’t know what the next Judith McNaught book will be called or when it will come out, I’m going to go with the new Laurie Notaro, Housebroken: Admissions of an Untidy Life.
I’m with bev! I’m super psyched about Harry Potter and The Cursed Child.
I would pre-order Jennifer Weiner’s upcoming Hungry Heart. I love her writing!
That bag is seriously adorable. Thanks for an awesome giveaway!
I’m into the Midnight Riot series right now, so I’d probably insta buy that.
The new Ilona Andrews when it comes out!
I can’t tell what the first book would be as I buy them as I see them. I have a week long family vacation with DH’s whole family coming in August, so I’m trying to make sure I have enough to keep me going through the whole week. I already read 2-3 books a week, so I always need more and enjoy reading your suggestions and reviews as to what to add next to my list.
I just finished reading A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab, so with a $50 gift card, I’d buy the next and last book in the series when it’s published next year: A Conjuring of Light.
I would get the new J.R. Ward book coming out in a few weeks The Angels’ Share from The Bourbon Kings series.
I would preorder the new Mercy Thompson and Kate Daniels books. I’ve been putting it off since the hardbacks are a little on the expensive side. Such a cute bag – thanks for the giveaway!
The books I’m looking forward to aren’t out yet…
I would probably get some of the older Nora Roberts. I love her books but they rarely go on sale.
Cute tote! Perfect for a nice plane carryon. I think I’d probably buy the Harry Potter book. I don’t have very many physical books anymore, but I’ll always keep a complete set of that series.
I would buy The Passage by Justin Cronin.
I know Curse of Tenth Grave came out last week, but I haven’t purchased it yet. Shame on me!! So, that would be my first purchase. Thanks for the chance to win! 🙂
I really want to read the On Dublin Street series so I’d snag that. Thanks for a fun giveaway!
Broken Prince By Erin Watt
Wild Embrace, the Nalini Singh novellas coming out soon
Or, I’d totally copy Katie D and get the Hamil-tome 😀
First, I’d buy the Thug Kitchen Cookbook, Eat Like You Give a F*ck. After all, the way to a man’s heart is supposedly through his stomach. Then I’d buy the another set of Kerrelyn Sparks’ vampire series. If I had to come across a modern day vampire, I’d love it to be one of her characters! What better way to fill up a book bag.
What a cute bag! I’d buy Nalini Singh’s latest, Allegiance of Honor!
Still haven’t had a chance to read Shelly Laurenston’s The Undoing, so would probably get that!
The Girls by Emma Cline
The first volume of Monstress by Marjorie Liu and illustrated by Sana Takeda. It looks excellent!
I would immediately buy Stiletto by Daniel O’Malley!
