2. Author
3. Copyright
4. How long was the book languishing in your TBR pile?
5. What made you buy/borrow the book in the first place?
6. What were your thoughts on the story?

Summer Is For Hanging With Family and Friends

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketThere is a twist to winning a book this month.

We tend to hang out more with our family and friends during the warmer months. So why not hang out together in the blogosphere??

Grab a family member or friend and ask them to join the challenge. Your friends have towering TBR piles too!

Anyone can sign up for the challenge. You can sign up by yourself.

But to be entered in the draw, you must bring a friend. Do they have to blog??? No. They can answer their challenge questions on your blog.

ANNDDD.... when I draw names, both of you will win a book. Hey, I'm going on a book diet this month. NO NEW BOOKS for me. So I can gift two for you.

Are you up to the challenge?

And the Winner Is...

First, let me tell you how much fun it was pulling names out of a hat! (My son pulled the name and he even got jazzed about it! You would have thought we were going to win. Go figure.)

Go ahead and laugh. I'll wait...

Everyone Is On the Playground But Me

Didn't you hate when all your friends finished their test before you and were allowed to go to recess early? Well that's how I feel.

I've got to get cracking!

I'm the only one without an entry! I know I have till May 31st, but I don't HAVE to always be the last one... do I?

Sheesh.

The draw will still be held on the June 1st JUST in case someone wants to enter. It is not too late.

Book Up For Grabs

Looks like Rel's name will be the only one in the hat to win this month's draw!

You can use Ransomed Dreams as an entry. My heart belongs to law enforcement and it will give Amy Wallace's book more exposure to your readers.
