order your boxes of books now!

Well, well, well. I would have sworn I had just done one of these promotions but it’s apparently been a very long time and now I understand why I have so many books spilling out of every available space in my house and why so many of you are asking when I’m offering boxes of books again!

So, readers, here you go!

Here’s all you have to do to get a big juicy box of books delivered right to your door:

1. Write a check for at least $20 per box ($13.65 goes to the shipping for a medium flat rate box from the United States Post Office, and the rest will go to the ACLU) and make it out to Lois Alter Mark. Readers have always been extremely generous, and if there was ever a time to support the ACLU, this is it. If you prefer to send by PayPal, my account is loism57@aol.com. Just check off that you’re sending money to a friend. You are!

2. Enclose a piece of paper with your name, mailing address and email address. Be sure to tell me which of these genres you prefer (mention as many as you’d like): fiction, literary fiction, historical fiction, chick lit, mystery/thriller, cookbooks, self-improvement, biography, crafts, memoir, non-fiction, anything I’ve forgotten. I can’t promise but I always try and often succeed in fulfilling these requests.

3. PayPal me with your list of genres or put the check and the paper in an envelope addressed to Lois Alter Mark, Midlife at the Oasis, 3525 Del Mar Heights Road #582, San Diego, CA 92130.

4. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email me at lois@midlifeattheoasis.com.

Don’t wait! These boxes always go really fast even though it seems like I have tons of books.

It’s so much fun to get one of these boxes in your mailbox. You can also order them for your friends, sisters, daughters, moms, whoever. Just remember to include their names and addresses as well, and let me know if there’s anything specific they like. Feel free to include a note for me to stick in their box or I can write one myself. I love love love when you share books with the women in your lives. They make great surprise treats.

Everyone is always happy with their boxes of books — thank you for the nice emails and Facebook posts! — and that makes me especially happy.

Can’t wait to get your orders!
