Bienvenidos! Enchanté! Bonjour!

 Literary Blog Hop November



 
 
Update!

And the winner is...

Shannon from Giraffe Days!

She chose Lies You Wanted to Hear

as her prize from Book Depository.

Congratulations!
 
 


Let me introduce myself.
Bonjour! Enchanté! Bienvenidos!


I am Debnance at Readerbuzz.
I love to read.
I especially love children's books,
travel memoirs,
 literary fiction, 
creative nonfiction,
and books about happiness.


I'm happy to be joining in the Literary Blog Hop again. 
It's a hop taking place from 
Saturday, November 9th until (and including) Wednesday, November 13th. 
It is hosted by Judith at Leeswammes' Blog and 
it's designed for participants who read primarily literary works. 




  

I'm giving away your choice of either:
(1) Five Days at Memorial (nonfiction)
or
(2) The Gravity of Birds (fiction).*
(*Rationale: I've read both of these
and loved them both.
If you are an international winner, 
I will provide 
$15 gift card from Book Depository
rather than paying to mail either of these hardcover books from the US.)
The giveaway is open to anyone anywhere in the world.
To enter the giveaway,
simply leave a comment below
with your e-mail address,
(disguised, of course, to thwart the wicked.)

 And I'd love to visit your blog. 
If you like, follow me and leave a comment
and I will hop over and follow you.


I also invite you to:
Befriend me at Goodreads.
Follow me at Twitter.
 Befriend me at Facebook. 


Thank you for coming by!
Hope you will stop by and visit others in our hop!
