Monthly Wrap Up – April

May 3, 2015 by Erin Leave a Comment

So…you may have noticed that there are new things going on with our website!!  We are SUPER excited about the new look and have to thank the lovely @kassiah for the work she did!  We hope everyone loves it as much as we do!!

Here we go!
We’ve partnered up with our lovely friends Meg & Kassiah over at Swoony Boys Podcast for some awesome features!  We hope you join us for all the conversations and fun!  
WHADDA YA KNOW WEDNESDAY
This is something NEW we are starting out and will take place on the 3rd Wednesday of every month!  We love interacting with all of you and we love talking books, book boys, and gushing over our favorite authors. We couldn’t think of a better way to do all of that than by combining all of those things, throwing in some awesome prizes, and having a blast while doing it!  Please join us and make sure you’re following @Fictionfare and @Swoonyboys to play along!

REAL BOOK CHALLENGE

We will be doing the Real Book Challenge for 2015 & we hope you will join us!  Check out what it is all about below and don’t forget to join the challenge! 

Have you gotten used to reading on your Kindle, iPad, Nook, or other reading device? Do you have tons of pretty books filling your bookshelves that are just begging to be read (and maybe sniffed a little too)? Do you have a favorite book or series that you’ve been looking for a reason to reread? All these scenarios, and so many more, are the perfect reason to join the “Real” Book Challenge! Join us in a quest to put down the electronic devices and pick up a physical copy of your favorite book(s).

FLASHBACK FRIDAY

This is a way for us to highlight books that are older that maybe don’t get as much recognition now because they have been out for a while.  Books that we read and loved or books that have been on our To Be Read lists for ages, but we just haven’t gotten around to them yet.

About Erin

In no particular order, I love books, music, and sarcasm. Traveling is one of my most favorite things to do and there are 3 crazy cats that basically run our house. I sometimes talk about all of these things!
