It's that time of year again (you know, egg nog, family time with "those" relatives and ugly sweaters) and that means the second go-around for Chronicle's Happy Haul-idays Giveaway!
This year not only will a blogger have a change to win $500 in Chronicle books, but a commenter on that post will also get the big prize, along with the charity of the blogger's choice! That's $1,500 in books! If I win, I'll choose one commenter (at random) from this post to win along with me. I'll also make sure that the Connecticut Children's Hospital gets that last book check. Really, there's nothing worse in this world than a sick child and if I can help them get some happiness this holiday season, I'm going to give it to them. CCH helped me out when I was younger and having far more hip problems than any 14-year-old should be having, and they've helped out so many others far worse off than me. They deserve it.
So, here's my list of Chronicle books!
