GIVEAWAY: 5 copies of Off Season by Anne Rivers Siddons



Hey all, I'm back with another giveaway courtesy of Valerie at Hachette Book Group. This time we have 5 copies of Off Season by Anne Rivers Siddons. Now this book is in my ever growing tbr pile and it will get read one of these days soon when I play catch up. It sounds really good and I've heard a lot of good things about it along the way. Here's a bit about it...

Acclaimed novelist Anne Rivers Siddons's new novel is a stunning tale of love and loss.

For as long as she can remember, they were Cam and Lilly--happily married, totally in love with each other, parents of a beautiful family, and partners in life. Then, after decades of marriage, it ended as every great love story does...in loss. After Cam's death, Lilly takes a lone road trip to her and Cam's favorite spot on the remote coast of Maine, the place where they fell in love over and over again, where their ghosts still dance. There, she looks hard to her past--to a first love that ended in tragedy; to falling in love with Cam; to a marriage filled with exuberance, sheer life, and safety-- to try to figure out her future.

It is a journey begun with tender memories and culminating in a revelation that will make Lilly re-evaluate everything she thought was true about her husband and her marriage.

This sounds like a good book even though its sounds sad, and even though I haven't lost a husband my ex left me and it was devistating and took along time to get over, so I feel like this would be a good book to read. Thanks for the chance.
