A Return of Suddenly Sunday

Posted on 5:32 AM by Unknown

Suddenly Sunday

I haven’t done one of these Suddenly Sunday posts in a very long time but I’m hoping to rectify that.  I’m going to get back to using these as a sort of weekly wrap up/kick off.

First up is the announcement of the winner of the giveaway for An Infamous Marriage by Susanna Fraser.  And that winner is….MARGARET!!!! 

Congratulations!!! I’ve sent an email to the winner and await her response regarding file type – if in 5 days no response is receive, a new winner will be selected.


There is still one more day left in the 1st Annual Historical Holiday Blog Hop!  Here I’m giving away a pair of the first two books in the Pink Carnation Series by Lauren Willig.  Also make sure you visit the rest of the blogs, including the host site, Passages to the Past, on the hop for great prizes.

In other giveaway news – Robin Maxwell is hosting a giveaway for a copy of Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn from its brand new 24th printing!  Along with it is a beautiful leather diary for your usage.  Visit her Facebook page to enter!  I very much enjoyed reading this book when I read it a few years ago and this cover is beautiful.  Here is my review if you want to check it out.

Also, I wanted to do a quick summary of what has been posted this week on the blog:

  • A little bit of trivia about Presidential and First Lady Official Portraits – with a selection of some of my favorites
  • My audiobook review of Killing Kennedy by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard

Well that’s it for me, hope you have a great Sunday!!!

Suddenly Sunday is hosted by Muse in the Fog.
