I tried following the links for the July sweepstakes but at some point it switches to say June. And the rules show must be entered by June 30 2016?
Sorry about that! It should have updated by now.
When I clicked to enter, the June 2016 Bookshelf pops up. Can I just change the month in the Subject Line to enter?
You can! Sorry, I was late to update but all should be good now.
Boy, what a thrill it would be to win all those books!
Best of luck!
