Hello my friends! Happy Wednesday! Today I am offering a copy of Dear Carolina, by Kristy Woodson Harvey. As you may remember, I posted a review last week.
To add to the giveaway fun, I’m going to share some pretty rooms (indoors and out) that I consider a worthy location for a good read. In addition to sitting to read a book, I enjoy Audible, which provides me with an unabridged version of almost any book in downloadable form. For me, that means on weekends, when I have garden work or household chores, I can listen to the book while multi-tasking. I understand most public libraries have CD copies of books as well, if multitasking is essential in your world. 🙂
Let’s start with this French farmhouse…everything about it says “relax, stay awhile” to me. I’d select the chair with the ottoman for a reading break, but that’s just me.
While we’re talking ottomans, doesn’t this corner appeal to you? Plenty of natural light, a throw and extra pillow at your disposal. I might fall asleep before completing one chapter in this chair! {It’s been known to happen}

There’s nothing like a corner library to invite one to sit and read awhile. This one is a favorite for its display, art-lighting and books.

Is that a fire in the fireplace? I sometimes wish I lived in a colder climate where a fireplace would be required daily…like England, maybe? 🙂 This is a beautiful American Farmhouse featured some time ago by Joni over at Cote de Texas.

Now this is pure luxury. Can you imagine the prunish skin you’d have after a relaxing bath and a good book here? Still, such an elegant place to bathe and read!

Since summer vacation is on the horizon, the one time when most of us can relax and catch up with one of the twenty books you’ve put on your list of “must read”. I feel my blood pressure going down just looking at the image!

I can’t quite resist the allure of a room with a fire in the grate. I see myself settling in with a cup of tea and my current book.

This time of year, once the weather entices you to be outdoors, this setting is lush and green and fun for unwinding with your book.

Now for the fun part. I have a copy of Dear Carolina to giveaway. All you have to do is leave a comment and tell me your favorite spot to read. Indoors, outdoors, at the beach, in a mountain cabin, whatever. Mr. B. will be blindfolded and randomly select a winner from names in a basket. I’ll announce the winner next week. Good luck, Dear Carolina is a wonderful story and I think you’ll love it. Now I can’t wait for Kristy’s second novel!
