Monthly Wrap Up – November

December 5, 2016 by Erin Leave a Comment

December is here and I can’t believe 2016 is almost over!  Personally I am really looking forward to some time off of work so I can get caught up on my reading goal for the year.  While November wasn’t crazy busy around here, we read some good books and spent some time with family which was great.  Check it out!

Fun with our Blogger Besties – Swoony Boys Podcast!
WHADDA YA KNOW WEDNESDAY

With the holidays this month, we decided to pick this back up in the new year.  Make sure you join us in January for the first game of 2017!  If you don’t know what #WYAKW is…it’s our YA trivia night!  We have been having so much fun with it and we hope you will join in!  Whadda Ya Know Wednesday takes place on the 3rd Wednesday of every month…(ok, sometimes it is the 4th one instead)!  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!

INSTAGRAM – DECEMBER BOOK CHALLENGE

We love putting together the monthly Instagram challenge and really hope you will join us for December!  We want to see all your posts so don’t forget to use the hashtag #SwoonyFictionNovember and feel free to tag @swoonyboys and @jaimearkin when you post your pictures!

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!
