SECOND WINNER AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS ( by ALEXA ADAMS)

1. NEW WINNER FOR ANA T. 'S GIVEAWAY
I have to draw another number since Luciana, who won The Sunne in Splendour given away by Ana T. last week, wrote back saying:  "I won something! I never win things in giveways! Thanks for Ana T and to you Maria! Oh yes, and for the random number generator! When I answered to the post I never thought I'd win! However, for more I think this book has an interesting story, I think it's better to pass it on to someone who will appreciate it more than myself. And it seems that a lot of your readers would appreciate it more than me. But I'm truly happy, as I never won anything! Good luck to the next one that will be the winner of this book!"

So, are you ready? Here we go again!

2. I WON A GIVEAWAY MYSELF!
 
Today has been a good day, for several different reasons. All of them little special events. I received for example and e-mail from Alexa Adams which announced I had won a giveaway at her blog , First Impressions, a Tale of less Pride & Prejudice . I won Jane Austen's "LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP AND OTHER EARLY WORKS". It was not on my Austen shelf and I'm glad it is going to arrive and get its place there. Thanks Alexa. I'll treasure this book, especially because it comes from you!
 
3. ALEXA ADAM'S FIRST IMPRESSIONS - MY REVIEW
 By chance, today I've also just finished reading Alexa's first published work, First Impressions inspired to the characters and events in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. You know, Austen's first title for Darcy and Elizabeth's story was just First Impressions, but I don't think anything like what I've just read was in that juvenile draft. Alexa Adams has pleasantly reinvented the story, giving each of the character a possibility of redemption and improvement.

 How is it possible? Read my review of this delightful novel.
