I am feeling a little bit nostalgic and a little bit fun for October's book bag.First the fun: October's bag is this adorable, colorful tote by Modsacks. I fell in love with their bags the minute I saw the website and would love to share one with you. This is a roomy tote with pockets inside for your cell phone, keys, etc.
Now for the nostalgia: In my Q&A posts I mentioned that The Grapes of Wrath is my very favorite book. And, since the reason I started Jill's Book Bag in the first place was to give away books I love, I thought October was the perfect time to pass on a copy of this wonderful classic.To enter, just leave a comment (one per person). I'd love it if you'd link back here on your own blog, but it's not necessary.
I'll choose a winner using a random number generator on Wednesday, October 31.
Thanks!

Such a cute bag! Love the blog!
This bag is wonderful. What a great site you have.
I love the bag, gorgeous, roomy, stylish, I could wax lyrical for hours but I'll stop here.
The book is an added bonus as I've heard many good things about it but never actually read it. I've not even seen the film.
Would sure LOVE this...gorgeous.
