All of them interest me, but the one that really pops out is ‘Big Green Purse’.
Well, I’m sortof a recipe junkie, so the baking book caught my eye. But I really think I’d love to read “Growing Friendships.” I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how adult women develop and sustain strong bonds of friendships — especially those of us with small children, spouses, jobs, and too little time!
Odd Mom Out sounds like a terrific read. I think we all struggle with the concept of being true to self and acceptance.
From A Distance, a diet Coke and feet proped up,sounds wonderful to me.

Please enter me. I need something fresh to read.
I love baking, so I’m very interested in the Sweet Melissa Baking book. Truffles by the Sea sounds like a good book, too!
boy do I love a good book. Owning them is quite different than borrowing one from the library. They become part of you; they are a part of your life. That being said, i like “Mrs. Perfect” only because I would much rather read a book than go to the movies and this movie DID look interesting.
very nice idea; books.
I would love the Sweet Melissa Baking book! I love to bake!
I love books and if I can afford them I buy them! I’m interested in Gorgeously Green due to the rave in going organic and saving the Earth which is a very big deal right now and I totally agree with it! Also the Quiet Moments for a Mothers HEart sounds relaxing and refreshing! Great contest idea!

Gorgeously Green: 8 Simple Steps to an Earth-Friendly Life
From a Distance
Big Green Purse sounds like an interesting read.
This would be just in time for my summer vacation. Sign me up please!
Very well written! I am an avid reader and the books I enjoy the most are the ones that are genuine, and the ones that I can relate to in all or some part of my life. This is one is it. It is so funny how timing is so perfect. As I was reading the review and she was talking about building strong relationships with other women at church….I looked behind me (God). I sing in the choir at my church and I know this review was for me. What really got my attention is that there is a guide available too, to help me in doing that. It is so true that a lot of our insecurities stem from bad personal experiences when we were younger and they do carry over into adult hood. Reading this review was really a word of encouragement for me and I really would like to read this book because it is not easy building friendships with the fear of betrayal, and/or getting hurt. Yes, like she said, we do need friendships; it just feels so risky and I try to protect my heart by keeping my distance. I know that my fellow church members are my brothers and sisters in Christ, but it does hurt me deep down to know that I am toiling with the friendship issue. I could go on; but to make a long story short, once again, very well written. I look forward to reading all of the listed books.
Odd Mom Out seems interesting to me. I saw it at the store and looked interesting.
The Sweet Melissa Baking Book interests me because I enjoy baking.

The Sweet Melissa Baking Book, though late in life, I’m just starting to try out recipes for my family (we used to be a take out bunch) and I’d really love to try some deserts.
Big Green Purse interests me most at this moment . . . but most of them look like I”d love them!
My mother is always baking things and delivering them to my house. She doesn’t bake for herself. She bakes for everyone else, even her dog. For Christmas last year I got her a doggie biscuit cookbook and she’s been baking her beagle little treats. While a lot of these books will make a fun read, I’d love to give my mother The Sweet Melissa Baking Book. If I win, she’ll have a cookbook giving her ideas of even more things to bake me. 🙂 Thank you for the contest.
This is a great collection of books, but I’d most like to read Gorgeously Green.

Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart sounds just lovely.
big greem purse green is great
Odd Mom Out to me is one that I would be interested in.
Sweet Melissa Baking Book for sure…thanks!!!
Books have always been my passion. The historial novel based in Colorado sounds so interesting, but so do many others. I have always said I hope they have a big library in heaven because there is no way I can read all the books I would like to in this life. blackford56@yahoo.com
I’d love to read Gorgeously Green!
The big green purse and gorgously green. Thanks.
Big green purse sounds very interesting to me.
Truffles by the Sea would be my pick. Sounds a lot like my life!!!!
Quick Moments for a Mothers Heart would be a great book, I would be able to sit down and read a little inspiration on a daily basis. Thanks for a great giveaway, I just love books!
Truffles by the Sea sounds like a great beach book – great giveaway!
From a distance
Mrs. Perfect
Truffles by the sea
I enjoyed reading your review of Mrs. Perfect and am most interested in this book.
I’d like to read Gorgeously Green.
Odd mom out i would say, if i was to pick only 1.
Odd Mom Out
I love to read, and these would make some awesome gifts.
I’m very interested in learning how I can make this a better Earth for my grandchildren and great-grandchildren, so I would be most interested in reading Gorgeously Green: 8 Simple Steps to an Earth-Friendly Life by Sophie Uliano … but I’m an avid reader and would be thrilled to have the whole bunch to read by the lake this weekend! Thanks!
le livre.
Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart, cuz I need a devotional, and From a Distance cuz I like historical fiction:-)
I am most interested in Odd Mom Out. This is a great contest! I love to read.
Sweet Melissa Baking Book because I LOVE to Bake! My mother considers herself a non-baker, but she is addicted to books — and I admit I inherited that addiction! But given that Mother’s Day is around the corner, I’ll just take the baking book and bake for Mom, and give her all the other books. I know she’ll let me read them eventually!
Well I love books and my daughters love books so I’m definately hoping I win. You can see 2 of my 4 bookshelves in my house on my link. Yay…
Hello, I really enjoy reading historical romance.
“From A Distance” sounds wonderful to me! Thanks,
Cindi
Odd Mom Out interests me the most. I had read an excerpt of this book, and it looked really good!
The Sweet Melissa Baking Book looks awesome!
Sounds like some good reading. The Big Green Purse seems like it would be a very interesting read.
I would love to win the Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart, because I need some quiet moments! lol! The Sweet Melissa Baking Book is one I have been wanting!
Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart interests me most.
I love baking so Melissa’s book on baking would be great but I have also been a victim of the green is more expensive theory so am interested in the Gorgeously green ….ok I want them all!!! LOL
I like the Big Green Purse.
The book Gorgeously Green looks fabu! I am always looking for more green living ideas and tips!
Mr. Perfect
this is so great. seriously, there is nothing better than a bunch of free books on your doorstop.

I Love books and these all sound fabulous! THanks!
Oh Pick me pick me! I love to read!!!
The perfect gift for Mom.
OOH! Pick me, pick me! 🙂 I love books and love giveaways!
I love books. Count me in.

I like Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart (boy, do I need this most days!) and The Sweet Melissa Baking Book. Gotta get some cookie baking on, right? Thanks!
I was intrigued by the Mrs. Perfect review yesterday. If I don’t win I will probably buy it anyway!
Any of the books sound interesting
All the books sound interesting
From A Distance
From A Distance sounds like a great book. Thank you for offering this giveaway.
I would have to say Odd Mom Out – because I feel like I’m so living my own version of that now having moved from a metropolitan area to a small New England town :).
I would love to read the Sweet Melissa Baking Book!
The Sweet Melissa Baking Book!!
laura_licious101(at)hotmail(dot)com
I am an avid reader so this would be perfect for me. The button’s on the blog.
Growing Friendships sound good
It’s kind of a toss up between the two “Green” books–I’m interested in both of them.
so many good ones! BUT…I would probably choose From a Distance
I love books and will read anything! Your listed on my blog as well! We love 5minutes For Mom!
I would love the Sweet Melissa Baking Book.
They all sound great but “Quiet Hearts,etc” speaks to me.
The book Odd Mom Out by Jane Porter would excite me since I love to read.
The baking book sounds great!
Truffles by the Sea
I’d like to read Odd Mom Out as a follow up to reading Mrs. Perfect by Jane Porter.
No blog to post a link to!
I’d like to read “Big Green Purse”. I try to buy Green products, but many of them are significantly more expensive. I could use the tips in this book.
Reading has always been a big part of our family life. One daughter is a teacher and has a huge collection of books. Would love to help her increase her library for the kids.
i think i would lean towards the big green purse. i’m really interested in making some greener changes for my family and receiving a book that highlights some of those improvements would be a lovely step on that journey!
(although, quite honestly…i’ll take a good read wherever i can get one!)
thank you!
I’d love to read Truffles by the Sea b/c I read the first in the series, Chocolate Beach!
The Sweet Melissa Baking Book
Sweet Melissa looks like a great book, I love to read and cook.
Odd mom out is such a cute book, I loved it.
I would love to read her other one.
Or the baking book. Yum.
Definitely From a Distance
I would love these!
I love to read. This would be a great win.
Odd Mom Out sounds like a good read.
My fav would be the Big Green Purse
Odd Mom Out — but really any book that has words makes my heart beat faster.
I think they all sound good! But the Big Green Purse interests me the most right now…
The Sweet Melissa Baking Book sounds divine! I love baking. However, I’m always in the mood for a good novel, too, so I’d have to say I’d also enjoy Mrs. Perfect.
After seeing her on Oprah, Gorgeously Green is the one I’d like to read first, though the Jane Porter books look good too. I’d love to be able to take them to my book club as suggestions. Thanks for the chance to win!
Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart looks great! I’ve been needing some books for this summer and this would be a great start!
Mine would be Gorgeously Green, I was going to the library this weekend to pick it up!
I would like the Big Green Purse. I am starting to learn so much about going green.
I love the bake so the “Sweet Melissa Baking Book” looks great! But, I love books as well so all of them would be fabulous!
From a Distance by Tamera Alexander. I love historical books and one that takes place in my homestate sounds great to me. The others sound great as well.
“Odd Mom Out”, but I’ll live vicariously through any book you throw my way!
I’ve been wanting gorgeously green for a while
I’ve seen good things about gorgeously green. I would love to check out that book. The others sound wonderful as well. I love to check out new authors and books.
Fabulous! There were a few that really caught my interest…but I would have to say that the book “From a Distance” sounded like it would be a great read. I’m crossing my fingers that I win! I love books!
I am most interested in the Gorgeously Green book. We are gradually trying to become more green in our household and I am always interested in learning about simple ways to help the environment!
They all sound really good ,but From A Distance sounds like a good curl up book for me,please count me in,thanks
Growing friendships sounds like a book I might invest in even if I don’t get to win. Ever since moving away from home it seems like I haven’t been able to develop a true friendship like I used to have. This sounds like a good book. thanks! 🙂
I think Quiet Moments For a Mothers Heart would be great! I like little pick me ups that I can read fairly quickly, but can help me feel positive.:)
All of them sound great but my favorite would be the book, “From a Distance,” since I love historical romance novels. Thank you!
Odd Mom Out sounds perfect for me, I moved to my city a year a go and have yet to find my place here.
I think the best of the lot is Odd Mom Out.
Mrs. Perfect fits me to a tee!
With two ‘babies’ in their twenties, I still worry about them constantly..it does’nt get easier. ‘Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart’ sounds like the perfect encouragement to Let Go And Let God.
The Sweet Melissa Baking book sounds great!
Mrs. Perfect please!
I saw the author of Gorgeously Green on Oprah and was really interested in that book.
Mrs. Perfect or Odd Mom Out look interesting to me!
The Sweet Melissa Baking Book sounds divine.
Big Green Purse by Diane MacEachern
Big Green Purse – I need ideas on what I can do to help our earth more. (although From a Distance sounds very good also)
Ohhh, the From a Distance sounds good. Please enter me!
I like “Truffles By The Sea” because the title is so cool!
courtneyhunt71 (at) aol (dot) com
I’d love to read them all, but I am particularly struck by the chocolate lover-themed book as well as the devotional book. I just finished my mother’s devotional for this past year, and I would LOVE to have another. Reading is one of my most intense passions, and this would be the perfect prize for me!
Psychological thrillers.
I would love Big Green Purse. I have recently made some more changes in our to make us Green friendly and would love to become more knowledgeable about this subject. Thanks!
Gorgeously Green
Growing Friendships sounds like a fun read, but gosh, so many great books, it was really hard to choose!
I almost always choose historical fiction . . .From A Distance sounds like a good read!
I’m a librarian…so I’m always reading!! Yesterday I added to my list Mr. Perfect, I like that particular genre.
I would give these to my girlfriend if I won…she would love From a Distance
Gorgeously Green would be my pick
We recently cancelled our cleaning service and decided to do the housework on our own, so my choice is Gorgeously Green: 8 Simple Steps to an Earth-Friendly Life, since this book includes tips on maintaining a green home.
Love them all!!!
Hmmm I think all of these books sound like so much fun – but I have to say, the baker in me is drawn towards The Sweet Melissa Baking Book (but seriously, the historical romance, green living books and The Odd Mom Out are all big contenders) basically I love to read and this whole list sounds fantastic.
I’m an avid reader. This looks wonderful!
I like the historical stuff….so I would read From a Distance first!
Odd Mom Out – looks fun and my type of light but good reading. That said, I would defintely enjoy the whole stack of new books to read. Thanks! Maureen (jnomaxx at hotmail dot com)
from a distance sounds great!!
Its a nice list of great books but I would pick “Quiet Moments for a Mother’s Heart ” as being what interests me the most at this moment! Thank you and Have A Good Day!
Gorgeously Green: 8 Simple Steps to an Earth-Friendly Life (Paperback) 😉 Thanks.
I love books. The moms devotional book would be a blessing to me!
Gorgeously Green 8 Simple Steps To An Earth Friendly Life…I’m trying hard to change our lifestyles to hopefully have a better life for my children’s children…actually…all our children. This book could help me make better decisions on how to “go green”. Thanks for the opportunity!
I need this something awful
I love the sound of all of them, but the one that caught my eye first is The Sweet Melissa Baking Book.
Thanks
