And the Winners of the 2013 Mad Reviewer Challenge Are…
First off, congratulations to everyone who completed the 2013 Mad Reviewer Reading & Reviewing Challenge. Not all of you completed the levels you set out to but some of you doubled your goal. Still, everyone is a winner here because they posted more reviews and helped authors in the process.
I won’t keep you in suspense. Everyone who completed the challenge had their names written on scraps of paper according to what level they completed. I just drew the names out of my cookie tin and here are the winners:
Grand prize winner: Diantha Jones
1st runner up: Shirley Ford
2nd runner up: James Kennedy
3rd runner up: Scatty
Congratulations to all of the winners! Both Diantha Jones and Scatty completed the Crazy Reviewer levels, James Kennedy went all out and completed the Mad Reviewer level and Shirley Ford finished her goal of Slightly Sane Reviewer.
If you’re a winner we’ll be in touch today. If you don’t hear from me, please drop me a line either through my contact page, email or Twitter.
The Mad Reviewer Reading and Reviewing Challenge 2014 Sign Up
The 2013 Mad Reviewing Reading & Reviewing Challenge is still in progress of course but I’m liking it so much that I figured I may as well start people on the sign up sheet. The challenge is the same as last year:
The Mad Reviewer Reading Challenge is to read and review (either on Goodreads, Amazon or your own blog) 104 books in one year starting January 1, 2014 and ending December 31, 2014.
I’m fully aware that not everyone has time to read 104 books which is why I’ve created different levels of the challenge that you can aspire to:
1. Mad Reviewer: 104 books in one year. (2 books a week all year.)
2. Crazy Reviewer: 52 books in one year. (1 book a week all year.)
3. Slightly Sane Reviewer: 26 books in one year. (1 book every fortnight all year.)
4. Sane Reviewer: 12 books in one year. (1 book every month all year.) Continue reading
Giveaway: You Are Mine and Mine to Tarnish by Janeal Falor
Today I’m happy to announce that my latest giveaway is in conjunction with the lovely Janeal Falor, whose debut novel You Are Mine is an awesome mixture of romance and speculative fiction. Even if you’re not heavy into romance I would highly recommend it because the romance isn’t the main focus. So if you love dystopias, well fleshed out characters and fantastic world-building, the best thing you can do is enter this giveaway. Go ahead! You know you want to.
Giveaway: The Devil of Ponong Series by Jill Braden
Today I’m lucky enough to be doing a giveaway in conjunction with author Jill Braden and her publisher, Wayzgoose Press. For my review of The Devil’s Concubine, her first amazing book, see here. For my gushing review of her even more amazing second book, see here. The fact that I gushed in both reviews should tell you all you need to know about how awesome Jill Braden’s writing is and how lucky you would be to win a copy of her book. Just follow the Rafflecopter link below and spread the word!
This giveaway will run from today (September 23) until midnight on October 6. Winners will be announced on the seventh and in addition to the prizes listed, there might be some more special swag thrown in. Who knows?
