GIVEAWAY: Cassandra & Jane, Bonus—Pride & Prejudice

February 9, 2009 by Darlene


For my next giveaway Cassandra & Jane by Jill Pitkeathley (my gently read copy) is up for grabs. I also have an extra copy of Pride & Prejudice hanging around that I’m going to throw in because I went and bought myself a new copy.

ps—as an added note, if you only want Cassandra & Jane, that’s fine too—I’ll donate Pride & Prejudice to the library.

Cassandra & Jane was a novel that J.Kaye from J.Kaye’s Book Blog and I read for a noontime chat and we both really liked it. It’s a novel based on what might have been Jane Austen’s life. You can read my review of it & our chats here.

Guidelines are simple this time around…

  • just leave me a comment. However, leave me a comment with an email address or you won’t be entered. It makes it so much easier when I have to contact you.

This giveaway is open worldwide and I will draw a winner on Wednesday, February 18. Good luck everyone!

    Seems I got here first 🙂
    Would love that book, I am of course a huge Jane Austen fan, but I don’t know that much about her life.

    Believe it or not, I still have not read any Jane Austen but am a fan anyway. 😀 Please enlist me in your giveaway.

    Thanks

    I would love to win Cassandra & Jane, but I already have 2 copies of P&P, not to mention my volume of all Jane's works. I guess that excludes me this time. 🙂

    I have yet to read any Jane Austen so Pride & Prejudice would be an excellent snag and I followed along with your book chats with J. Kaye on Cassandra and Jane. I'm interested in that one as well. Thanks!

    These books sound great. I am a Jane Austen virgin, and I’d love to start reading her books, Pride and Prejudice seems like a good place to start. Cassandra and Jane sounds good too. Thanks for the chance to win.

    Throw my name in the hat for Cassandra and Jane. I am a huge Jane Austen fan and Pride and Prejudice is one of my all time favorite novels. The cover for pride & prejudice is beautiful, unfortunately I already own a copy. ^^ I guess I will be crossing my fingers for Cassandra & Jane.

    You know…I am somewhat ashamed to admit that I haven't read P&P yet! I have seen the BBC series, and enjoyed it but I just never seem to get around to reading it (or adding to my shelves!) I hope to rectify the oversight soon.

  47. tanabata says

    February 11, 2009 at 9:20 am

    They both have such pretty covers! I went back to read your review of Cassandra and Jane again and it does sound like a great read! I’ve read most of Austen’s novels but not much about the author herself. Please add my name into the hat. Thanks.
