LOOKING AHEAD TO NEXT WEEK:

No Conversations with Kav this Sunday. Tomorrow is the kind of overbooked seasonal day that happens from time to time. I have church in the morning, a friend visiting from out of town in the afternoon, a Carol Concert early evening followed by a potluck so….not only won’t I be around most of the day, I’ll be too addlepated from all the fesitivies to make much sense anyway!

HOWEVER

You might notice a theme in the book reviews this coming week. I blame it on reading ‘The Heart of Bennet Hollow’ several weeks ago which triggered a craving for more retellings, fairy tale or otherwise, which sent me on a hunt and even re-reading a bunch which then led me to thinking it would be fun to do a whole week’s worth of Retelling / Reimagining novels and here we are…with several more books to spare. So, this week there will be a giveaway for every book, Monday – Friday, just remember to check edition availabilities for each book.

Woohoo — thanks to all who participated in Best Reads first ever Holiday Bingo! This is what the Wheel of Names Generator looked like after I inputted everybody multiple times in order their bingo reports came in:

And the wnners of the $20 gift cards are:

TAMMY (CDN) AND CARYL KANE
