Happy Haulidays from Chronicle Books!

Well, goodness!  Nothing makes window shopping fun like the possibility of actually winning what you pick out - $500.00 worth of possibility!  That's what Chronicle Books is offering with their Happy Haulidays Giveaway!  Submitting your entry isn't fast but it is very, very fun.  Go pick out $500.00 worth of items from Chronicle Books and either post it on your blog or, if you don't have a blog (or don't want to confess your undying love for all things undead), comment on a participating blog - or all of them (the list is on the giveaway page) - one blog and one commenter from the winning blog will win that blog writer's list of books.  So you want to actually graze the lists and comment on any whose list matches your taste!

Here's mine - it's got a bit for me (crafts, cookbooks, misc.), a bit for gifts to my grandchildren and my youngest daughter, and a couple items for my boyfriend.  If it looks good to you, leave a comment!  The giveaway ends on Dec 10th, and winners are announced Dec. 13th - so enough time to know if it's coming for Christmas, even if it doesn't get there by then.
