Austenesque Quarterly Giveaway #24!!!

Hi friends! It is time for an Austenesque Quarterly* Giveaway!  And this one is a BIG one! 🤗❤️

If you are new to this blog, I shall explain. ☺️ I sometimes acquire duplicate copies of Austenesque books and then host a giveaway to find them some new homes! 📚🏡

And sometimes generous readers of this blog send me a box of books they’d like to share with others as well! (Thank you, Jean!!) 🤗

Included in this month’s giveaway I have some NEW paperback books donated by L.L. Diamond and the lovely people of Quills and Quartos! (Thank you, Leslie and Quills and Quartos!) 💕📚

Annnnnnndddddd, I also have 2 Audible Audiobook Codes to share from Don Jacobson  (Thank you, Don!) 🎧

All the paperbacks and Audible code giveaways are open to US readers. Suddenly Mrs. Darcy and Mendacity and Mourning are open internationally.

For the international readers of this blog, I am including an additional paperback copy of one of the books featured in this post (from Book Depository) to the giveaway prizes.

There are 6 physical books in this giveaway but I’ll choose  9 winners – 6️⃣ for the paperbacks, 2️⃣ for the Audible codes, 1️⃣ for a paperback from Book Depository (winners’ choice of any of the other 8 books). 🥰

*I changed the name of the giveaway since most books aren’t ARCs but are previously-owned books in great condition!

  10. Thank you for these lovely books. I’m interested of course but I am French. I would like to read Suddenly Mrs Darcy. I hope it would be easy for me to read it. I’ve been reading in english since only few months. I’m not comfortable listening to audiobooks.

  11. What another generous giveaway! Thank you. I would like to receive Mendacity & Mourning, or Suddenly Mrs. Darcy, or JA Ruined My Life. I already have the others mentioned. It would be lovely to have one of these books to continue to see me through this pandemic.

  12. Wow! What an extremely generous giveaway! I would be happy with any of the books except for the audible ones. Since I’m on a quest to be the last person in America to own a cell phone, I could only listed to audible books on a stationary device (my Kindle version is without sound). If I’m confined to not being able to move around, then I’m happier reading than listening.

  13. Woohoo! Love the giveaway and thanks to all the generous givers.

    I would love to win any of the paperbacks with the exception of Jane Ruined My Life since I already have that one. 🙂

    Thanks again! US resident

  16. I am in the US. I would love a chance at Mr. Darcy’s Letter, Suddenly Mrs. Darcy and A Matter of Chance, in that order. I have some of the ebooks but I cherish paperbacks. Thank you for doing the giveaway!

  17. I would like any choice except Jane Austen Ruined My life which I have read already. I am good with a physical book or Don’s audiobooks.

  18. Hi Meredith!! Thank you so much for generously passing along so many lovely books to us each quarter!!
