Lovely giveaway! I’d like to try to win Jane and Prudence please. I haven’t read Barbara Pym before. Thank you for offering a giveaway. My email is samstillreading[at]gmail[dot]com .
i’ve been meaning to read more Pym since I adored Quartet in Autumn about 5 years ago. 5 years – where does the time go? Anyway thanks for the reminder to do something about it. i’d be happy for either book to drop through the letterbox. 🙂
I would love to read one of her books, because I havent read anything by her and love reading something new to me.
Well, I’ve read a couple of her books (so far) and only own one of hers-and it is neither of these. cald56(at)frontiernet(dot)net.
Well, I would like to read more books by Pym simply because I’ve already read Jane and Prudence. I’ve purchased Excellent Women after your rewiev, and Some Tame Gazelle is on my wishlist, too.
I have heard of Pym, but never read before. English village life – what’s there not to like? 🙂

You have such a wonderful & sharing heart Ali. Marvy of you to do this. Don’t put me in the drawing as I have both books but I wanted to tell you how lovely this is of you.
I would be interested in reading Jane & Prudence, because the story starts off at Oxford, focusing on 2 women. Thanks for the chance to win. nrlymrtl at gmail dot com
Thank you for your giveaway. I haven’t heard of Pym before this so if I win, I will let you choose which book. jen [at] underagraysky [dot] com
Thanks for the nice giveaway. You know, I have never read anything by Barbara Pym but I’m glad you put me on her trail. I love stories about English towns and the relationships between the towns people.
I think Jane and Prudence sounds especially fun (I checked the book on wikipedia).
Thanks for taking part in the blog hop.
I haven’t read any of her books but her books sounds like something I would like! Thank you for the giveaway 🙂
I haven’t read anything by her, but I’m interested! Thanks! katieamanda1(at)yahoo(dot)com
I would choose “Jane and Prudence.” Thanks for the giveaway!!

I’ve read only Some Tame Gazelle (twice) and have enjoyed the wry humour immensely. I would very much like to try Jan and Prudence. Thanks for the chance to win!
I’ve never read Pym before, so if I win, I will let you pick for me 🙂 my email is noelsbear1@gmail.com
Great giveaway! I’ve heard wonderful things about Pym’s novels, but I’ve never read any. I would love to give her work a try. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
I haven’t read any Barbara Pym books yet, but I must say they look fabulous.

So excited about your giveaway selection! I’ve heard so many good things about Pym but have yet to read anything. Thanks for the opportunity! fingers.prose at gmail.com
I’ve never read her books, but they sound interesting. Thanks.

I would love to read Some Tame Gazelle because Pym writes about two spinster sisters living together. I love my sister, and I would love to live with her when we are old!

I think I would choose Jane and Prudence, but I have not read anything by her yet so either would be fine! Thanks for the opportunity!
