The Unlikely Romance of Kate Bjorkman is a masterpiece. I read it every Christmas because it doesn't really feel like Christmas without it. For all of you hopeless romantics, awkward girls, or bookies (pretty much anyone who reads my blog besides my husband) it is the best Christmas read. You don't have to think so hard, you fall in love with Kate -(mostly because you can relate to her so well) and it makes you feel so happy to be alive at Christmas. I'm not promising Morrison brilliance here, but I am promising your new favorite Christmas book. (Face it, we can all only read The Little Matchgirl so many times before we realize that we have no idea what that book is about, only that it leaves us feeling depressed.)
Because I love you all so much, I am funding this giveaway. I will order it from Amazon and send it to you - and hopefully you get it before Christmas, because this book is a gem. I will probably order a paperback, and the cheapest shipping possible - just as a disclaimer. I will also choose a winner on Monday morning.

(p.s. the author Louise Plummer used to teach Creative Writing at BYU. Anyone lucky enough to take a class from her? I am so upset I graduated from that school without taking her class.)

I read a book of essays by Louise Plummer a long time ago, and I loved it. It had something about a Grasshopper in the title. I would love to win this book!
Also, I retweeted you from @TheBlueBookcase. :)
I'm always looking for a good read! Thanks for the suggestion. Now that finals are over, and we are waiting for our baby to arrive, it plan on reading A LOT over the break!

I LOVE Louise Plummer! I've read "A Dance for Three" and "The Romantic Obsessions and Humiliations of Annie Sehlmeier" and thought they were both fantastic. I haven't read Kate Bjorkman yet, I bet it's good!
This sounds really good! I want to read it! :)
I've never heard of this book, but would love to read it while I'm home for Christmas! Thanks for sharing the books you love!
