KN, p. 328 “2024 Book Drawings”

If there are no paragraph separations in the article, please double-click on the title to create a more readable version. 2024 was a fun year for the Kerrian’s Notebook subscribers to win books. Winners were chosen randomly during quarterly drawings, using random.org. The winners were then notified through Facebook and/or the email addresses they had provided. A list of at least ten books was sent to the winners, from which they picked their prize(s). The majority of the books continue to be mysteries, thrillers, and novels of suspense, in keeping with the Kerrian’s Notebook theme. They were purchased at indie bookstores, brick & mortar chain bookstores, and a delightful gently-used-hardcover bookstore about 40 miles from here. Many of the books were stay-awake reads, many were bestsellers, and some were passed along to other readers. Because of the participation of our Kerrian subscribers, we were able to give away 126 books in 2024! Tell your friends! If they subscribe, and let us know that you referred them, you get a free book (from a 2025 list). Looking for a great read?
