Hey there everyone! Here is another Friday and I am happy to say another Hop day… YAY!

First thing, let me take a moment and *Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee* I reached 950 Blog Followers tonight and I just cannot believe it!

Thanks so much to all my wonderful followers!!!!

A HUGE Followers Giveaway is coming up in a couple weeks, you won’t want to miss it!

Oh I just wanted to say that since last week the hop had over 300 links up, OMG, I just can’t visit them all… So, this week I will only stop by the new blogs on the hop and on the blogs of those who stop by here =) I think that’s fair… no? I do feel guilty about that =/ but I need to focus and do some reading and writing this weekend.

I’ve had a less busy week this week, I am happy to say, but I do have some things to share with you all.

I actually did a re-organizing of my sidebars and cleaned it up a bit. I have added a Blogroll, and if you don’t see you blog there (left sidebar at the bottom) there is a form there where you can let me know your blog and I’ll add it =)

I’ll host Flashback Friday every Friday and I will be adding Mr. Linky on the post so if you feel like joining, you’re more than welcome to do it. You can go back as soon and as far as you’d like on the Flashback Friday, 1 month / 1 year, it’s up to you.

Click on the feature’s image above for more info about it and to access my first post with the meme. Or you can just go to the main blog page to find it =)

Ok, so let me share these week’s posts with you:

Reviews:

Interview & SIGNED Book Giveaway:

I also have TWO giveaways going on, you can find the links to them on my left sidebar near the top or at the end of this post =)

In the spirit of spreading the love to some great blogs I’ve found through the hop, I’ll feature one every week on my Hop post…

I found Savannah’s blog, Books with Bite, on the hop and I just love it. The content, the design, everything =)

Every week Jen from Crazy-for-Books asks us a question to answer on the Hop, this week’s is:

TELL US ABOUT THE BOOK YOU ARE CURRENTLY READING!

Oh my, I actually just finished a great UF book, Spider’s Bite and My review will be up soon.

I started today Whirlpool, a sexy shifter ménage eBook that is so yummy!

    Hi Larissa! Thanks for your comment on an earlier blog post of mine which was about not finishing books. Just wanted to ask, how do you let authors know when you can't finish their books and what's their response to that?

    I'm already an old follower too! :) Happy Friday!

  17. I am a new follower :)

    I am currently reading "By Midnight" by Mia James. The book is well written with a original plot and take on vampires. A great read so far.

  18. Have a fantastic weekend :) I hope it is full of fun!

  19. Jennifer says:

  22. Happy Follow Friday! I'm helping you get to 1000 followers by following you!

  23. Here by way of Follow Friday. I can't wait to dig through your reviews and see how you affect my "to read" list.

    OOooh, I see that you're reading Seers of Light. I'll definitely be back to see your thoughts on that. *nods* I read it earlier this year, but don't know many others who've read it.

    I'm adding your blog to Google Reader so I can keep up.

    Happy Friday!
