2023 was another great year for the Kerrian\u2019s Notebook<\/em> 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).<\/span><\/p>\n


\nThe majority of the books have been (and will continue to be in 2024) mysteries, thrillers, and novels of suspense, in keeping with the Kerrian\u2019s Notebook<\/em> theme. The books 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, some were donated by the authors, and some were passed along to other readers. Because of the participation of our Kerrian<\/em> subscribers, we were able to give away 130 books in 2023!<\/span><\/p>\n

Tell your friends! If they subscribe, and let us know that you referred them, you<\/em> get a free book (from a 2024 list). Looking for a great read? Take a look at the terrific books the Kerrian\u2019s Notebook<\/em> subscribers chose in 2023:<\/span><\/p>\n
