freedom to read giveaway hop

Welcome to the Freedom to Read Giveaway Hop, hosted by Bookhounds.

This hop celebrates U.S. Independence Day. This year, just like last year, it also celebrates a three-day weekend where we can read as much as we want without having to worry about the alarm clock going off in the morning. At least for those of us whose definition of insomnia is a good book we can’t put down.

To give you a chance to get even more books to keep you up at night, I’m giving away either a $10 Amazon Gift Card or a $10 book from The Book Depository. Happy Fourth of July and Happy Reading!

a Rafflecopter giveaway

And for more chances to win more great bookish prizes, be sure to visit the other stops on the hop!
