It is hard to believe summer is gone…we had an AMAZING August. Â Not only is it our birthday month but we also got to go see Hamilton (OH MY GOD – SOOOOO GOOD) and Coldplay (Always a fantastic show)! Â If you haven’t seen either, you definitely should if you can. Â I am excited for fall though – there are some great books coming out and of course, sweater weather is my favorite! Â Check out what we’ve been up to and let us know how things are going in the comments!
Fun with our Blogger Besties – Swoony Boys Podcast!
We are back – Join us in September for some trivia fun!!
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!  We have a new scoring system and if you invite your friends and they play, you have an even better chance of winning so make sure you invite and remind them to join in the fun!  Make sure you’re following @Fictionfare and @Swoonyboys to play along and invite your friends!
New Feature!
We have a new feature on the blog called In the Spotlight! Â We have been trying to find a way to spotlight all the bookish stores and products we love and thought this would be a great way to reach those of you not always on Twitter and Instagram. Â Our first post introduces you to Brittany from Novelly Yours – Check it out!
