Canada Day Blog Hop

Canada Day Blog Hop
In celebration of Canada Day (which is July 1rst for all you Americans) I am partaking in the Canada Day Blog Hop which is hosted by Aislyn from Knit, Purl, Stitch... Read and Cook! and Chrystal from Snowdrop Dreams of Books
I am very proud to be Canadian and I think that it's important to celebrate that. I live in Ottawa, which is the capital of Canada and Canada Day is always a blast. They shut down all of downtown and this year Prince William and Princess Cate are coming to visit and I can't wait!

Anyhow, I am sure you will all be excited to know that I am hosting a giveaway. I am going to be giving away one of my favourite books and it's by a wonderful Canadian author.

Here it is:

In Canada and the UK it is called The Book of Negroes and in the States and Australia it is called Someone Knows My Name by Lawrence Hill. Just fill in the form below to enter. Winner will be announced July 2nd.

    I'm going to be so jealous that you get to see Prince William and Princess Kate... if I weren't heading home for the weekend I would have totally driven to Ottawa to hang with you and the royalty! :)

    Ha, it's going to be so fun! Although it does get a bit nutty downtown Ottawa on Canada Day.

    Thanks for the giveaway! Your giveaway form says you have to be 13 years of age "or younger". I am assuming it should read "or older"?

    I've been curious about The Book of Negroes for a while now. My mom actually recommended it to me. Great giveaway, thanks!
