Giveaway - On the Bright Side: The New Secret Diary of Hendrik Groen

I thoroughly enjoyed the first Hendrik Groen book and I'm looking forward to reading his continuing story in On the Bright Side: The New Secret Diary of Hendrik Groen, 85 Years Old. And I have a copy to giveaway to one lucky reader!

From Grand Central Publishing:

"In the acclaimed follow-up to the #1 international bestseller The Secret Diary of Hendrik Groen, everyone’s favorite curmudgeon is back and as funny and charming as ever with the newest adventures of the Old-But-Not-Dead Club — for fans of Frederik Backman and Graeme Simsion.

Everyone’s favorite octogenarian is back and, together with his pals in the Old-But-Not-Dead Club, he is more determined than ever to wreak havoc and turn a twinkly eye on the brighter side of life.

After a year spent mourning the death of his beloved friend Eefje, Hendrik may be older and a little more wobbly, but his youthful appetite for mischief hasn’t diminished. When fears arise that the home is set for demolition, it’s up to Hendrik and the Old-But-Not-Dead Club to intervene." Read an excerpt of On the Bright Side.

"Hendrik Groen started his pseudonymous diary on the literary website of Torpedo Magazine. He says about his first novel: “There’s not one sentence that’s a lie, but not every word is true.” The Secret Diary of Hendrik Groen has been translated into over twenty languages."
