I received a small mountain of entries for my two August contests. An astounding number of readers shared their ten all-time favorite books, and their ten all-time favorite authors. At the end of the month I did what I said I'd do: I printed out the names of every reader who entered each contest, and put them into two boxes: one for the favorite authors and one for the favorite books. I had my patient husband close his eyes and draw one name out of each.Betty Brewer won the 10 All Time Favorite Books contest. Here are her top picks:

Congratulations, ladies! And a big thank you to everyone who entered. I will be compiling a list of books and authors that seem to be extremely popular and posting them later this month. It may give all of us some new reading ideas. It certainly did me.
Thanks again, and I hope you will enter my September contest, too!
