It's time to pick some winners!
I didn't ask for contact info when everyone signed up SO! If I can't find a way to get in touch with you, it's up to you to get back to me! I'm sure I'll be able to tack you 3 down BUT if I can't I'll have to pick new winners :(
Ok - onto the WINNERS!
A BIG CONGRATULATIONS TO:
Stella from Ex Libris
Lisa from Lisa's World of Books
Lisa from Baffled Books
You have each won $15 worth of books from The Book Depository!
If you see this post before I find you, please email me at WilowRaven[at]yahoo[dot]com with your book choices and shipping address.
I had originally stated that 1 winner would be receiving a few books from ReaganStar who generously offered to donate to the prize pile but do to a mix up by me, I've changed the third prize to be another $15 to the BD. Thank you again ReganStar and so so sorry for my lack of organization!
