NOW CLOSED: 1,000th Post Giveaway: Book Sixtyfive Roses A Sister’s Memoirs Ends 3/20

March 7, 2009 by Briana Carter

sixtyfiveroses

I can see why Sixtyfive Roses: A Sister’s Memoir is Eva Longoria’s new favorite read. I mostly bawled during the entire book as it was very emotional for me to read not just because of Pamela’s disease but the power of two sister’s bond.  While I didn’t want to put the book down, I had to read it in sections because I was so emotional while reading it.

You can read my full review on this book over at the Buzz…by Bargain Briana to get a better picture what this book is all about and  to get links to interviews with Pam before her death, the book website, and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

In Celebration of my 1,000th post, one lucky reader will win this beautifully written book about a sister’s bond even with dire odds looming over them.

    I have two healthy sisters; but, knowing what I would feel at the loss of one is overwhelming. I know that this would be a “kleenex box” type of book; but, feel that the message would be well worth the tears. Thanks for the review… if I don’t win I will still be putting this on my “to read” list. Thanks for the wonderful review.
