I recently reviewed Andy Andrew’s new book The Heart Mender: A Story of Second Chances.
I really loved the story. In fact, I’ve enjoyed every book by Andy Andrews that I’ve ever read. I encourage you to read my original review for my overall impressions, but I assure you: it is highly positive.
I received an extra review copy for free from BookSneeze.com, and so I thought it might be fun to give it away through my blog.
And so, over the next week, The Randleman Review will conduct a contest to determine a recipient for The Heart Mender.
Here are the rules:
The winner will be selected at random from the comments section of this post using an automated generator, such as Random.org. Therefore, the more you comment, the better your chances of winning the book.
The comments must appear on this post at The Randleman Review, and not on the copy of this post that is posted on my FaceBook account. Comments on the FaceBook note are appreciated, but will not be considered as entries into the contest.
The contest will end at midnight on Thursday, May 27th. The winner will be announced on Friday, May 28th.
Comment away!

I want to know how you have so much time to read. I'm slowly getting back to my books. Maybe I'll have a little more time to read them once Johnny goes to school?
Looks like a great book. I want it!!
I wanna win!
HEY! Give me the book!
One more chance for me to WIN!
I just got an error message that said "You're posting comments too quickly, slow down" (Like that'll stop me…)
I'm determined!
How many comments are too many, 'cause I could keep going all day…
OK – so I really do have other things I should be doing, but I'll be back!
Hello?
Did I win yet?
I want a free book!
How 'bout now?
Well…. I see that in future contests, I may have to limit the number of comments that count as entries. Hmmm…
Jenny, have you read any of Andy Andrews other stuff? It's all really good…
By the way, I will exempt my comments from the contest entries…
I haven't read any of his stuff but I went to Amazon to look at this one after I saw your post. It looks like an incredible book, and one I could really "get lost in" right now.
And just so you know, I'm well aware that the entries aren't limited this time around…. I latched right on to your "Therefore, the more you comment…." suggestion!! lol
BTW – congratulations on the new baby you guys are expecting!
WordPress Error: You are posting comments too quickly. Slow down.
Just had to throw that last one in since I've seen it many times now! (Sorry if I'm getting on your last nerve. I REALLY want that book!)
Seriously, who names their kid ANDY if their last name is ANDREWS??!
Jenny, it's probably a pen name.
Lots of people do it.
And a lot of people use a last name starting with "A" because it shows up in the first part of the bookshelf.
We have lots of lazy people that don't look past "A's" when looking for a book.
But I don't think that's the case with Jeff.
By the way, I think it's funny that Jeff's found a "replacement" for Rachel and I.
Is that annoying, Jeff?
I read other reviews of the book. They are (MOSTLY) all great. Just a few negative ones, but that's just because people don't know what they're talking about.
This is my last comment. I think I've entered enough. 🙂
And I promise to write MY review of the book– if I am lucky enough to get picked.
I'm not going to be as petty as Amanda and Jenny to comment so many times.
I'm not going to be as petty as Amanda and Jenny to comment so many times…..
I'm not going to be as petty as Amanda and Jenny to comment so many times………………………………
okay, so maybe i am
why does your blog keep telling me I'm responding too quickly? Who is your blog to tell me how quickly I can and can't respond?
I don't want to slow down
also, so why does the blog say I posted at 7:39? It's 2:42
Time issue should be fixed now…
and you live in the same time zone as me
At least for all future comments…
Robin Hood's a good movie
I like peanut butter
and Chinese food
I just had a triple espresso shot in a cup of coffee

I'll never give up
I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather.. Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car.
We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public.
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.
I discovered I scream the same way whether I'm about to be devoured by a great white shark or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot.
The sole purpose of a child's middle name, is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.
It's ours it is, and we wants it! We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious.
So bright… so beautiful… our precious.
Well, I have all your equipment in my locker. You should probably come get it cause I can't fit my numchucks in there anymore.
You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills… Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills.
Knock it off, Napoleon, just make yourself a dang quesadilla!
Fascinating! Semmi, look at this! America is great indeed. Imagine a country so free, one can throw glass on the streets!
Apparently these are the best women Queens has to offer. Pick one and let's go home.

Good morning!
I'm ready to WIN my new book!! 🙂
I'm going to laugh if I post the least amount of times and still win. HAHAHAHA!
And if I don't win, that's okay. I'll survive. It's a book. An INTERESTING-sounding book, but a book. 🙂
That's all.

Had to post that last one 'cause I wasn't sure that I'd been totally clear yet about the fact that I wanna win.
Tomorrow is the last day, right?
Admit Jeff, you're gonna miss all of us when this is over!
So sleepy….. wish I could take a nap.
I have a gut feeling that I'm NOT gonna win…. but I just keep trying anyway!
Another chance…
We're getting 'sort of' close to the home stretch, right?

Not much longer now!!!
I'm having a lousy week – need this book to cheer me up!!
If this were a "voting" contest, perhaps that last one would have gotten me some sympathy votes! lol

I saw the books in my friends facebook wall, I really want to read the book. I just love Andy Andrews’s perspective about living.
It’s definitely worth reading. Unfortunately, the contest is over, but there is a link in the post where you can order a copy if you’d like. Thanks!
