Lovely! Please count me in. You rock!
That is completely amazing! (And I love this blog!)
Should I feel guilty for lusting after more books?
I will promote your generosity so you can share the wealth.
My fingers are cross for hardbound books to make a big comeback. Thank you for this wonderful blog.
Alcott collection very pretty in green. I'm in.
Sorry. Make that "crossed" ... my fingers are only angry about the death of print.
timeless...classics...paradigms for any Ophelias out there..[14 year old girls who think they need boyfriends to exist]

What a nice set of books. I'd clear a space in my bookcase for these, for sure! If I did this right now would I increase the likelihood (nice word!) of winning? I'm a newbie to your site and I love it. Thanks!

Wow! Amazing! And I had to comment even though I probably won't be the winner, since I'm an international. :(
I still have my first copy of Little Women, and I am an old woman now. I would love to win such a lovely collection of her works.
I love Louisa May Alcott!!!
She is the first author I pursued all her works to read, and I was TEN!
I still consider her my favorite!

Awesome blog! Thanks

Yes please! What a lovely set! We don't really buy sets at the shop where I work, so I rarely get to see things like this (to lust after).
Thank you for keeping this blog!
I have a copy of my Grandma' Little Women that she got for Christmas as a young girl in 1949! It is one of my most treasured books.
Oh, how neat! My first visit to your site. I'd love the books for my daughter and I to read together, but even if they don't, your site is quite an eye-catcher. I'll be reading just to see such wonderful interaction with your readers, who all appear to fall under the older definition of that word, as well. :)
Oh gosh this giveaway is mind blowing. *crosses fingers*
yay!
What lovely binding!
Oh I fear I will be too late to enter! But if not... here's hoping!
Phooey. I bet I'm too late... congratulations to the lucky winner!
I have this same set!! The edges of the pages are raw - the books feel like they have real history. One day they will belong to one of my daughters..
