Orchard House Giveaway

This Giveaway is unfortunately, over. But check back every Thursday from now until May, 2021, for more great book givaways!

Welcome to the second of my thirteen-book giveaway! This one is for a brand new release of Heidi Chiavaroli’s latest novel, The Orchard House. Make sure to see how to enter below.

What a great picture!

Award-winning author Heidi Chiavaroli transports readers across time and place in this time-slip novel that will appeal to fans of Little Women.

Two women, one living in present day Massachusetts and another in Louisa May Alcott’s Orchard House soon after the Civil War, overcome their own personal demons and search for a place to belong.

Does that sound like a great read? I can’t wait to read it myself, and when I do, I’ll put up a review on my blog, as well as on Bookbub, Goodreads, and Amazon. Authors really appreciate reviews from readers so if you read a good book, make sure to spread the word.

Another thing authors love is bookstores! Especially indie bookstores. My favorite is Valley Bookseller here in Stillwater, MN. Heidi’s favorite store is Inkfish Books in Warren, Rhode Island. Make sure to use one of these or your own favorite indie when you’re looking for books.

Heidi was kind enough to be one of the very first readers of In A Far-Off Land. Here’s what she had to say about my newest release:

One of the best books I’ve read this year! In A Far-Off Land is a beautiful story echoing the power of mercy, forgiveness, and love as it peels back the multi-faceted layers of those living in Hollywood during the Great Depression. Stephanie Landsem weaves a heroine with as much spunk and edge as heart and soul. Just a gorgeous, page-turning novel. — Heidi Chiavaroli, Carol Award-winning author of The Orchard House

In A Far Off Land, will be released in Summer 2021. It’s a story of murder, glamour, and redemption set in the glittering world of 1930s Hollywood. You can read more about HERE. And you can pre-order at Valley Bookseller or your favorite online bookstore.

  3. Right now I am reading Daughter of Cana by Angela Elwell Hunt, and I am loving it! Thanks for your book giveaway promotions. It’s fun!

  5. I am currently reading In This House of Brede. My favorite Alcott book is Little Women.

  6. I am reading A Perfect Amish Romance by Shelley Shepard Gray. I love books around the civil war era! The cover looks anazing

  7. My favorite was Little Women. I read it several times and as a result watched the movie which came out a couple of years ago. I was definitely a fan. Right now I am reading a book by Amy Lillard “A New Love for Charlotte”.

  8. I am reading a book that was written in 1940 by Graham Greene, The Power and the Glory. It was recommended by our Assoc. Pastor. It is to be Greene’s best novel.

    1. I started The Power and the Glory but I didn’t finish it. I really want to but I got bogged down, maybe because I was listening to it on audio. But I LOVED The End of the Affair by Graham Greene.

  9. I am reading Yours Truly, Thomas by Rachel Fordham. I just recently started the book. Thank you for the opportunity to win a book!

  10. Favorite Alcott – Little Women Just finished The Appalling Strangeness of the Mercy of God

  11. I am currently reading Dancing Shoes by Lynne Gentry. Since I am the pastor’s wife of a small church, I am really enjoying this series.

  13. I actually just finished reading Little Women – for the first time – a few weeks ago (hard to admit for a librarian)! I loved it, and now I’m trying to find out which film adaptation is my favorite.

  14. I love, loved, loved reading the rather obscure title by Alcott: “A Long, Fatal Love Chase”. That’s my favorite but all her writing is great!

  15. My favorite Louisa May Alcott book is An Old-Fashioned Girl! (And I am currently reading Wrapped in Rain by Charles Martin.)

    1. I’m so jealous! My local bookstore has my copy (signed by the author!) but it’s been so cold here I haven’t ventured out to get it. But I am so looking forward to Depression era!

  17. My favorite was Little Women. Just finished The Proud Breed by Celeste De Blasis. It’s a 3 generational saga of California starting in the 1800’s. It’s one that’s difficult to put down. Working on The Code Girls now. About the women who were the main ones behind breaking all the codes of the Japanese and Germans during WWII. They were not allowed to tell anyone about their jobs, not even family. Later they got little to no credit for the work they did. Slow read, but really good.

  21. I have just finished reading This Tender Land by William Kent Krueger, a Minnesota author.

  26. I am reading Glory Over Everything by Kathleen Grissom. It is the sequel to the Kitchen House, a novel about the antebellum period in the south and the lives of the slaves that revolve around the kitchen of the plantation. I love historical fiction!! I just finished Auntie Poldi & the Sicilian Lions by Mario Giardano for my Book Club read. Next up Daisy Jones & the Six which is also historical fiction.

  28. The only Alcott book that I have read is Little Women, which I enjoyed as a young teen. One of the books that I’m reading is Home At Last by Deborah Raney. It’s is the fifth and last of the Chicory Inn series. I’ve really enjoyed it. Thank you for the giveaway and congratulations on your upcoming release! Your first three books are great, so I know I’ll enjoy this new one.

  29. Right now I am reading Lady Wydnwood’s Spies 1: Archer. I love Little Women and have read and reread all those books many times. Thanks for the giveaway 🙂

  31. I just finished The Way It Should Be by Christina Suzann Nelson and I am going to read The Moonlight School by Suzanne Woods Fisher now. Thank you for the chance.

  33. I just finished “On The Edge” by Parker Hudson. Wow! What a book.
    I loved “Little Women” by Alcott.
    “ Cilka’s Journey” by Heather Morris really good too.
    I just love to read.

  35. My favorite LMA book is also one of my current reads: Little Women. I found an absolutely gorgeous illustrated vintage copy at a thrift store a few months back and knew it had to come home with me. I finally started re-reading it recently!

  36. I LOVE Little Women!!!! I watch any movie adaptation I get a chance to. I haven’t actually read the book in a very long time, but it’s one of my all time favorites.

  37. Currently reading Find Me in Havana by Serena Burdock. I had a little trouble determining who was who but am loving it now and can’t put it down!

  39. I have Little Women on my list to read but I am not ready for it yet. It will remind me too much of my current situation. I am ready The Year of Yes by Shonda Rhimes.

  42. My favorite is Little Women. I’m currently reading 1984 by George Orwell, and I’m finishing up a book by Marissa Meyer, Fairest.

    1. Ooh. I read 1984 just about a month ago. The beginning is the best part. I thought it got a little draggy toward the end, and depressing. But it is a good read and one that you think about long after.

  43. I love Little Women. I have good memories of my mother reading it to my brother, sister and me one cold and snowy winter in North Dakota. We were just kids and she would read a chapter each night. I really looked forward to every new chapter. Right now I’m reading Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah.

  45. I would like to read the Orchard house as i like historical fiction. My favorite book by Louisa May Alcott is Little Women.

  46. Little Women is my favorite and I also enjoyed Little Men. Currently reading Jesus of Nazareth by Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. Looking forward to retirement when I can read more classics.

  47. I read a lot of Louisa May Alcott as a teen, but Little Women made the deepest impression. Last night I finished The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness…a bit different.

  48. Right now I am reading King’s Shadow (The Silent Years Book 4) by Angela Hunt. Good book by a great author. Thanks for your book giveaway promotions. P.S. I cannot wait to read your latest book Stephanie Landsem.

  49. I’ve only read Little Women, but lately, I’ve been reading Georgette Heyer and Julie Klassen.

  50. I am reading “Kings Shadow” right now too. Debra Hancock is my cousin and we are reading it together. (Her in Arizona and me in Nevada.) Fun!

  52. I am re-reading The Swan House by Elizabeth Musser. A lovely historical fiction with southern roots.

  53. I’m currently reading Egypt’s Daugther by Angela Hunt! And my fav Louisa May Alcott books are (I can’t choose just one ) Little Women and Rose in Bloom
