Final week for the reader giveaway!

I’m extending the deadline to Thursday, September 17!

The gift bundle is a selection of #CanLit books courtesy Dundurn Press, plus a selection of fine stationery from the Paper Place, including a bookmark and Tattly temporary tattoo.
One reader will be selected for the gift on September 17 from among those who post pics. I wish I could give all of you a gift, but we’re leaving this one up to chance. The rest of the entries will be greeted with my warmest enthusiasm, and I’ll either RT or repost you!
