December’s book giveaway includes one copy each of “Jamie at Home: Cook Your Way to the Good Life,” by Jamie Oliver (donated by Hyperion Books) and “The Weekend Baker: Irresistible Recipes, Simple Techniques, and Stress-Free Strategies for Busy People”, by Abigail Johnson Dodge.
What’s this Giveaway all About?
Every time I’ve given away books readers have loved it, so I thought: why not make giveaways a monthly event? So as of August 1, 2008 ‘Baking and Books’ will be giving away book(s) or cookbook(s) every month. I hope you enjoy this new feature & feel free to send feedback my way.
Upcoming Giveaway Books
Will be announced soon!
How the monthly giveaways work:
- 1. Each month I’ll select a book or cookbook to give away on this site. The book will be listed in the sidebar.
- 2. In order to enter to win, all you need to do is comment on the blog posts for that month. For instance, in order to win the giveaway book for August simply comment on the entries written during the month of August. Naturally, this means that you can enter every giveaway more than once.
- 3. At the end of the month I’ll randomly select a winner from all the comments that have been submitted on posts for that month.
- 4. That’s it! I will email the winners and post their names below.
If you have suggestions about books you’d like to see in the monthly giveaway please feel free to email me at bakingandbooks [at] gmail [dot] com. Likewise if you’re a publisher who is interested in participating in this event, please get in touch with me. I’m selective when it comes to the books I feature on this site, but am happy to discuss featuring your title in a giveaway, sharing a recipe, or conducting an author interview. See the FAQ section for more info.
