Posts Tagged ‘pairs’

I was laying in bed this morning after my first fully restful sleep in a while and thinking about literary duos.  Not necessarily titular (though Betsy-Tacy is not to be ignored), but those great pairings that make my favorite books so juicy to read.  You know…Scarlett and Melanie, or Marianne and Elinor.  Pairs that prove that opposites attract (or never do), who must go through life as heroines or as enemies or, even better, both!

Then I got up and learned from Beyond Little House that today is Carrie Ingalls (Swanzey) Day and thought, “I’m on to something!”  Who can forget Laura rocking the seat for an exhausted and humiliated Carrie?  I’d call that a literary match made in heaven.

So what better way to celebrate literary duos than with a contest? 

I have two sets of two galleys of The Heroine’s Bookshelf to give away to two lucky winners…one to read, one to pass on to a friend.  To enter, all you have to do is post in the comments here and tell me a literary duo you love, and your email address.

This giveaway is limited to USA only, unfortunately (there have been and will be international ones), and I’ll close entries at 5 p.m. MDT on Friday, August 6…so tell a friend!
