Friday Giveaway: Stay-at-home Book Bundle



I'm giving away these eight books today. I thought they might make some good reading for those that are staying at home.

To enter, leave a comment below. You can also enter on Facebook , Twitter , Instagram or via email .

I will gather up all the entries and select a winner at random tomorrow morning. Good luck!

A final note, this might be the last Friday giveaway for a while. Needless to say, the world has changed quite a bit in the last week, and I am not sure if the bookshop will make it to the other side. I hope to be able to share my love of books with you for a little while longer.
