Apologies for late post, I have been slack, and completely forgot the date, but without further ado…

I am part of the literary blog hop which was started by Leeswammes and I have had the pleasure of winning a book or two through this hop. There are many other blogs taking part, and you can win all sorts of bookish things! The Hop runs from the 8th – 12th Feb 2014.

So, here is my give away:

1) Mr Penumbra’s 24 hour Bookstore – Robin Sloan

OR

2 ) The Language of Flowers – Vanessa Diffenbough

All I thoroughly enjoyed reading and would highly recommend!

    I’d pick Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore.

    The first book to come to mind was Fingersmith by Sarah Waters – it had some good twists and turns to the plot.

  15. Kara says:

    I would love a copy of Mr. Penumbra’s 24 Hour Book Store by Robin Sloan, which I bought a few people for Xmas but still haven’t read myself! This is a wonderful opportunity to win free books of quality, and I’m finding new blogs at almost every stop! Cheers — Kara

    I almost forgot: my garment fluttering book of 2013 was *The Luminaries*…

  16. Oooh Mr Penumbra’s 25 Hour Bookstore sounds like the one I’d want to win.
    As for blowing my mind… mmmh. I’m not sure. But Andre Brink’s Other Lives definitely made me think a lot!
