Gudrun’s Tights Fourth Birthday Giveaway! {closed}
Today is the fourth anniversary of Gudrun’s Tights. I had to double-check the date because it feels so much longer than four years – and not in a bad way. I’ve been a bit lax in blogging so far in 2015, but I’m always grateful to know that I have this space to return…

Mary Stewart Giveaway {Closed}
Today I’m giving away one copy of Thornyhold, the first of Mary Stewart’s novels that I read and that endeared me to her writing. It is one of her supernatural tales and is full of romance and suspense. Though a bit slower paced than her earlier books it is still lovely and as smart and enchantingly written…

It is a highly poisonous plant, oleander, but the blossoms are lush and beautiful – almost over the top. The pink and purple blossoms are petunias…

Second Birthday Giveaway! (closed)
Today is the second anniversary of the creation of Gudrun’s Tights! I remember sitting down two years ago and thinking how fun writing this new blog would be, but also had serious doubts as to whether anyone would read it. Well, I still think it is fun (despite occasional lapses), and there are people who…

A Christmas Memory Giveaway (Closed)
It’s the day after Thanksgiving and it is now acceptable (here in the States) to acknowledge that Christmas is coming! One of my favorite traditions of the holiday season is to read holiday-themed books. One of my most beloved stories is A Christmas Memory by Truman Capote. A Christmas Memory is a bittersweet story that I…
