October 2017: What did you win?

October winner notifications are rolling out now—what's headed your way?

Note: This month we had some multiple wins possible—if you win more than you want, just let me know and I can help.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them here, or email me directly (loranne@librarything.com).

I won The Last London, by Iain Sinclair. (And why the first title that comes up for touchstoning is The Poetical Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning is more than I can fathom.)

I'm getting The Art of Coco.

I'm excited to be getting Sunday Silence by Nicci French .. thank you!

Very happy to have won The Sea Before Us by Sarah Sundin.

I am unbelievably happy to have won the newest Ian Rutledge mystery by Charles Todd, The Gate Keeper. I've read every book in this series and it's one of my favorites.

I won Ghostly Tales: Spine-Chilling Stories of the Victorian Age. Looking forward to it. Thanks LT!

I'm the happy winner of An American Marriage by Tayari Jones. Thank you!

I'm thrilled to win Feed the Resistance: Recipes Ideas for Getting Involved by Julia Turshen!

I won Ghostly Tales, Spine Chilling Tales of the Victorian Age. Love Victorian era stories and writers so it's right up my alley.

I'll be looking forward to reading They Drew as They Pleased Vol. 3: The Hidden Art of Disney's Late Golden Age (The 1940s - Part Two) by Didier Ghez. Thanks!

Very appropriate for the day!

I just won Sunday Silence by Nicci French!! I love and have read all her books and am looking forward to reading and commenting on it. Thank you so much.

I'll be getting Missing Isaac by Valerie Fraser Luesse. Looking forward to it! Again, thanks LT!

Looking forward to reading Heavens on Earth: The Scientific Search for the Afterlife, Immortality, and Utopia by Michael Shermer. Thank you, LT.

I'm getting The Lacemaker by Laura Frantz this month! I'm super excited. My absolute favorite time period and it looks like it should be an awesome read.

>8 hubblegal: I have also won An American Marriage by Tayari Jones. I'm looking forward to reading it; I enjoyed her Silver Sparrow which I read for my book club (and Big Read) last March.

I'm getting Pep Talks for Writers by Grant Faulkner ... Rah! Rah! Put that ink down, put that ink down ... write! ... write! ... write!

I won Ghostly Tales: Spine-Chilling Stories of the Victorian Age. So excited.

I won The Atomic City Girls by Janet Beard. Very Happy!

I won two books •the dawn of Skye by E.B. Heimbal •cry your way home by Damien Angelica Walters

These are my first books and review any pointer how or what a review should include

Pleased to have won Her Body and Other Parties : Stories by Carmen Maria Machado

Wheeeee The Girls of Atomic City thank you!

I won that Sinclair, too, and am very hopeful it's as enjoyable and instructive as the other title of his I've read. I suspect in some sense, these are all contributing chapters to a single, sprawling work.

I won NAM:The Story of a Generation by Mel Smith and In the Weeds by Mark Ozeroff. So happy to read these both.

Question: How do I add the direct links to books here?

>26 jlcollins2:. To get the direct link to a book, you enclose the title in square brackets. The site will search for the book, and it will show up as a touchstone on the right. It doesn't always find the right book, and if that happens, you click "others" in the touchstone box and select the right book from the drop-down menu.

Sometimes the touchstone does not appear on one of my devices. For that one, if I make the post, and then edit it, the touchstone appears with the edit.

Hope this helps!
