"The Wishing Trees" Giveaway

I am thrilled to be working with author John Shors this month.

He has agreed to offer up 3 signed copies of his newest release -The Wishing Trees - for a sidebar group read in TNBBC in the month of December.

Here is the book description as found on John's website:

"Almost a year after the death of his wife, Kate, former high-tech executive Ian finds a letter that will change his life. It contains Kate’s final wish – a plea for him to take their ten-year-old daughter, Mattie, on a trip across Asia, through all the countries they had planned to visit to celebrate their fifteenth anniversary.

Eager to honor the wife and mother they loved, Ian and Mattie embark on an epic journey that retraces the early days of Ian’s relationship with Kate. Along the way, Ian and Mattie leave paper “wishes” in ancient trees as symbols of their connection to Kate and their dreams for the future. Through incredible landscapes and inspiring people, Ian and Mattie are greeted with miracles large and small. And as they celebrate what Kate meant to them, they begin to find their way back to each other, discovering that healing is possible and that love endures – lessons that Kate hoped to show them all along…"

But that's not all! He has also agreed to plant a Colorado Blue Spruce sapling in the mountains (through the Arbor Day Foundation) for every person who participates in the group read. So even if you do not win a copy of the novel, by participating in the group read and discussion on TNBBC, you are giving back to Mother Earth!

This contest will remain open until November 1st.

In order to win one of the three signed copies of this book:

1- You must post a comment to this thread including a way for us to contact you if you win.

2- You must agree to participate in a group read book discussion that will run during the month of November over at TNBBC on Goodreads. John has agreed to participate in the discussion for the first two weeks of December and will be available to answer any questions you may have for him.

3 - The contest is for US / Canada residents only. Sorry guys!

By commenting, you are agreeing to read the book and join the group discussion at TNBBC on Goodreads (the thread for the discussion will be emailed to you at the first of the month).

I will choose the three winners randomly and notify you via email and a comment here when the contest is over.

Good luck!!
