One of my favorite things about writing on this here wideworldintertubeblogsite is that I get to share stuff I like with you, the internets. And today, I am ever-so-delighted to share some books by Marla Taviano, who has one of the most down-to-earth and engaging writing styles that you ever did see, amen.
Marla writes about stuff that many of us can relate to – marriage, babies, and the, um, activity that leads to the babies – and she does so in a way that makes reading her books feel like you’re talking with a girlfriend who has been right where you are and knows exactly how you feel.
No self-righteousness, no here’s-what-I-think-and-you’re-wrong-if-you-don’t-think-the-same-thing. Just practical, sound encouragement from someone who is grounded in Truth and wants to spur on her readers as they make their way through a season of life that can sometimes get a little cuckoo.
Triple love that.
Marla is giving away five copies of her books, and if you’d like to win one of them, here’s all you have to do:
1. Click here to visit Marla’s website.
2. Take a look at her three books. You can even read excerpts while you’re there.
3. Come back here and tell me which book you’d like to win.
4. That’s it!
I’ll leave this giveaway open until next Monday, June 9. At that point I’ll use random.org to draw for five winners.
And if you think you can’t possibly wait until then, or if you know that you’d like to give Marla’s books as gifts, you can take advantage of what she has dubbed her Fancy BooMama Special (picture me, eating fried chicken and blushing) and buy all three books for only $20.
Personally, I think that three brand-spankin’ new books for $20 is a mighty fine deal indeed.
I hope y’all enjoy digging a little deeper into Marla’s books – I know you’re going to love them.
Have fun, everybody!
This giveaway is now closed.

Am I really the first commenter? Well, then, I’ll never win! The random integer thingie never picks number 1!
Nevertheless, I’d like either Changing the world one diaper at a time (I’m a mom of 10m triplets…this would be a very appropriate book for me)
OR
Is that all he thinks about because well…we have 5 kids!
have a great night.
Bring on the sex! You can never learn to much about it! H
I’ve got the sex book and it’s quite good. Love Marla and I’m always amazed by all she has going on.
For me.. it’s got to be Changing Your World One Diaper at a Time. I mean, who couldn’t use a little encouragement when it comes to being a mommy?.. especially if it’s grounded in the Word of God.
Fun! I’d love the “Is that all he thinks about” book! :-)
Not familiar with Marla, but absolutely loved her website and blog, and can’t wait to read her books! Would love to read “Changing Your World One Diaper at a Time” first.
Thanks-I’d love the sex book. And yes, that IS all he thinks about. :)
Is That All He Thinks About…
Is That All He Thinks About?
I need this book!!!! Need I say more???
i’m voting for the sex book. oh yeah!
I’m going for the “Is That All He Thinks about?”
and yes , yes it is girls. but thats NOT a bad thing when he’s coming home to you wanting it!!!
Sign me up for “From Blushing Bride To Wedded Wife”, please, Sophie.
And thanks for hosting the giveaway!

Is that all he thinks about?
For sure. This one.
Thanks, Boomama!
Ooo, I’m always looking for good resources for when we mentor newly married couples. Cool!
Changing Your World One Diaper at a Time would be perfect for me, as a new mom to a 6 month old. I read the first few pages of the excerpt and I’ve decided I need this book, even if I don’t win. Fingers crossed though! Thanks BooMama!
i’m with heather…can you know too much about sex with your hubby? i want the sex one! :)
the marriage book – or the makin’ babies book. both sound great!
I think I’d like the “Is that all he thinks about?” book.
The makin babies for me. However, if either my husband or I get pregnant, someone has some splainin to do.
The SEX book, hands down! I guess the internet is as good a place as any to announce that that book might really come in handy these days… *cringe*
Gonna go with Is That Really All He Thinks About b/c my youngest three girls are already almost 2. We’re not going back to first year baby stuff ever, and DH and I are approaching our 9th anniversary this summer. Woohoo!
Sweet Husband and I are hoping to enter into the diaper phase of life soon, so I’d love to have “Changing Your World One Diaper at a Time.”
I would get “Is That All He Thinks About?”. Actually, I would get all three because I would share them with my daughters-in-law!

All the books look very interesting & helpful. I would choose “Is That All He Thinks About?”
Is That All He Thinks About?…..yep, I think so.
For the love of all that’s good, “Is That All He Thinks About?”. I need that book. And Mr. Random knows it, too.
I first thought I would choose “Changing Your World One Diaper at a time”, but I think after some serious consideration, I think I would choose “is that all he thinks about?”
Thanks for referring a new author!
“Is That All He Thinks About” is a book that I could definitely use right now. If I don’t win, I’ll just have to buy it. ;o)
I’ll toot my horn with the horny bunch (wink) for Is That ALL He Thinks About please.
I’d love to win From Blushing Bride to Wedded Wife! :-)
I read the excerpt from “Is That All He Thinks About” and um, I want that book!
Definitely “Is that all he thinks about?”. Need a word from the Lord on this one =)
I think I would pick “Is That All He Thinks About!”
Thanks for hosting…
Definitely “Is that all he thinks about?”.
“Is that all he thinks about,” for sure. I’m glad to see by the above comments that I’m NOT ALONE in my need for this book. I was embarrassed at first, but realize I’m one of millions of women who have some needs in this area. :)
Is That All He Thinks About?
I would love to read “Changing the World, One Diaper at a Time”. Thanks!
I’m past the Blushing Bride to Wedded Wife transition. I’m not yet at the One Diaper… phase. So, I’ll go with “Is that All He Thinks About?” For my DH, it’s not, but I’m always looking for greater wisdom and good tips where mattress dancing is concerned.
And judging by the other comments thus far, so are most of us!
Thanks BooMama!
Is that all he thinks about is the one for me too please.
Changing the World…since I’m due with my third in October. Thanks!
WIN this book, read it, and do everything Marla says. Edited version of my (her husband) phrase on the back of the Is That All He Thinks About book especially for BooMama’s giveaway!
As a wife, mother and author, there have definitely been days my wife needs some encouragement. She needs a boost like we all do, and I’m thankful God’s brought her many more smiles through your blog!
Looks like I’m going with the crowd and hoping for “Is That All he Thinks about?”.
Pick me. Please pick me. :)
Is That All He Thinks About is what I would like to win. Thanks!
“blushing bride”
ha ha! The “is that all he thinks about” book. Love it!!
I’d love the “Is That All He Thinks About?” book! And the “One Diaper At A Time” sounds great too!
For sure…Changing Your World One Diaper at A Time!!
I’d love a copy of Is That All He Thinks About!
Going with everyone else…bring on the sex!
Is That All He Thinks About? seems to be the top dog here. But if I were going to win a book I would have to choose that one also. Even after 25+ years of marriage and 3 mostly grown children, there’s still room for improvement (I just hope there’s still “time”.)
