Congratulations to Kimberly, who says she never wins anything. She is the winner of the book this month!<\/p>\n
It’s a new month, and that means a new book to give away to one lucky reader! I actually got this from another blog contest (Thanks, Deb<\/a>!), and read it over my “Christmas break”. It’s called Dangerous Admissions. Book Description<\/p>\n Miranda “Rannie” Bookman\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009d43, divorced mother of two, with a recent love life consisting of a long string of embarrassingly brief encounters\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009dis beginning to feel like a dangling participle: connected to nothing. Her career as a copyeditor is down the toilet (she makes one little slip\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009da missing “l” from the last word in the title of the Nancy Drew classic \u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009dand suddenly she’s Publishing Enemy #1!), so she’s been forced to take any gig she can get. And that means giving tours at the Chapel School, the ultra-exclusive, ultra-expensive, private academy that her children attend. Certainly not the most interesting of employments . . . at least until someone stumbles across the dead body of the Director of College Admissions.<\/p>\n Investigating a murder was never in her job description, but with her soon-to-be-college-bound boy Nate a prime suspect, Rannie has little choice. Besides, who better to dot all the “i”s and cross all the “t”s than a self-proclaimed “language cop”? Her diligence might even lead her to a brand-new love. Or to a killer. Or to another corpse\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u00e2\u20ac\u009dhopefully not her own.<\/em><\/p>\n Now as for my personal review, while I liked the story and found it interesting, there were a lot of “language issues” that I had a problem with. Enough said. But I enjoyed the book, especially how she mentally corrects or edits everyone around her. I’ve known enough English teachers and proofreaders to understand her little quirk of expecting everyone to have a mastery of the English language. <\/p>\n So, if you would like to enter to win this book, just leave a comment on this post, and I will pick a winner next Monday (January 14, is it?) And if you’d like to enter more Pay-it-forward book contests, check out Overwhelmed with joy<\/a>, where she hosts this every month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Congratulations to Kimberly, who says she never wins anything.
