So, do you like the banner for this year? My very talented brother took one of my travel snaps and added a dragon!
Thanks to everyone who entered the giveaway and spread the word of the feature 🙂 And now, back to semi-normal programming…
Thank you so much for the chance to win some really really great Australian books! I also LOVE the banner you and your brother put together. When I first saw it, I couldn’t stop gazing at it! I sat in front of my laptop just admiring it. lol! Its SO COOL!
I’ll continue to check out all of your reviews for the month of July, so be prepared for more comments, Angelya. 😉
Thanks Marly, you’re awesome 🙂
I love your annual program!
Do you think you’d be open for me or any other blog to participate too next year? It would be super-fun!
I read lots of fantasy and I also find that I read lots of by Aussie female authors 🙂
Tien recently posted..Review: Secrets of Catalpa Hall
Absolutely! Last year’s feature had quite a few guest posts from other bloggers and authors, and while I did actually put the call out for help this time I didn’t get any responses and didn’t have time to chase it up too much. I’ll certainly remember you for next year Tien 🙂
Oh, did you? I must’ve missed the call-out if it was quite early this year – got too wrapped up in RL, ha ha ha
Please do remember me next year 🙂
