Please note that each contest is only open for 24 hours, so you will need to act quickly!  Our Final Featured Book and Contest:  The most extraordinary, life-affirming memoir you will ever read about the power of love. DID I EVER TELL YOU? reads like a novel but is an unforgettable true story. Genevieve (Gwen) Kingston was just 11 years old when her mother passed away, leaving behind a chest filled with gifts and letters to celebrate the milestones of Gwen’s life and each of her birthdays until age 30. When DID I EVER TELL YOU? opens, just three packages remain: engagement, marriage and first baby. Tracing Gwen’s coming-of-age, the book reveals a treasure hunt, with each gift and letter unveiling more about her mother, her family and --- ultimately --- herself. Like CRYING IN H MART by Michelle Zauner and THE LAST LECTURE by Randy Pausch, DID I EVER TELL YOU? is a riveting book filled with unexpected twists and powerful life lessons. Through her mother’s fierce and courageous love, Gwen was granted the tools not only to move through grief but to cherish life. For as her mother says in one of her letters: “love is stronger than death.” Click here to enter the contest by noon ET This is a special newsletter for our Spring Preview contests, which will mail on select days in March and April.
