Annual Book Sale?
I do not know about you, but autumn is my favorite time of year. I do not think that it is solely related to being my birthday season either (that’s this Sunday, if you’re keeping track). I love the changes in the air, the changes in the leaves, the spices that come out, and the family time that happens. I just love autumn. One thing, however, that I’m not so much a fan of is going through my books, purging and making room for others that are more appropriate for our current time in life. One thing that I am doing is pulling books that I have Kindle copies of…

The Winter Crown by Elizabeth Chadwick {Review}
You might also be interested in reading my previous posts and reviews featuring Elizabeth Chadwick including a great Guest post! For the King’s Favor {Review} Guest post from Elizabeth Chadwick Lady of the English {Review} A Place Beyong Courage {Review} More to come! When I read a historical fiction novel from Elizabeth Chadwick I know that I can expect it to come off the page and alive in my imagination. Her writing is always so clear and vibrant with visual information. As always I enjoy her stories. While my heritage is here in the English vibe, there is so much about British history that I do not know. Reading…

Christian Historical Fiction Reading Challenge 2011
So this year has been a bust. I admit it. We went from being on Blogger, to having an incredible and active Ning. To having a BuddyPress on WordPress and now to a side page of Creative Madness Mama located at www.ChristianHistoricalFiction.com. Now it’s true that we do have a forum there, as well as a forum in the goodreads group. There is a book trailers page and everything, but it’s just no where near as active as the Ning. Moving around just lost people and I hate that. I hope in the future we can get a community atmosphere back! Now… the challenge is to have read 24 books…

Mama Needs a nook Giveaways!!
Okay, so here’s the deal. I have some shelves that need to be cleared and I desperately want to gain some money to buy myself a B&N nook. In the next few days, weeks, we’ll see… I’m going to list some books that I have to offer. It will pretty much be a First Come First Served type deal… All I ask is that you provide postage and a donation toward my nook. Either way you’ll be getting a bargain on a book and I get to pass it on to someone who needs it! So any takers? Does this appeal? Or do you think I’m just plain crazy? If…

Bummas Wipes
This giveaway is now closed, but please enjoy the review! Hi, I am the Creative Madness Mama and we cloth diaper. It’s been about nine months now and we still use disposable wipes. *gasp* I know!!! I’m sorry! I just cannot help it! At first it was just because they were to expensive that we had not bought any. Then we did buy some Organic Imse Vimse Wipes and that was the worst purchase I have ever made in my life! I do not want to get into it. *sigh* Okay fine, they were so poorly made, after the first wash they were all wonky, the serged edges was all…
