GIVEAWAY: The Painter From Shanghai by Jennifer Cody Epstein

June 17, 2009 by Darlene


Hello to all my fellow book lovers tonight. I just read and reviewed The Painter From Shanghai by Jennifer Cody Epstein today and I really thought it was a fantastic book. You can read my review here if the urge overtakes you and I hope it does.

Jennifer was nice enough to email me and thank me for my review which was so nice of her especially since I always feel like I should be thanking the authors for a beautiful book. She also mentioned that she’s always happy to answer questions about the book for book clubs, etc–in person for those in the NYC area, by phone for those who aren’t, and via email for anyone. Isn’t that awesome!

As luck would have it I ended up with an extra copy of The Painter From Shanghai that I’d love to share with my readers. What do you need to do…

  • For 1 entry leave me a comment with an email address.
  • For 2 entries blog/tweet this giveaway!

This giveaway will be open worldwide for all my blogging friends and I will draw for a winner on Sunday, July 5, 2009. Good luck everyone!
