    I always want to do something like this, but forget to keep track of awesome posts I read. I should really utilize my Feedly better. Thanks for featuring my reviews. I really appreciate it.

      You're welcome! I find this a fun feature to do as it motivates me to read what everyone is posted and look at reviews for genres I don't generally read!

    Thanks for the shoutout! I don't typically read contemporary YA, but I'm glad that one worked out for me.

    I'll have to read that 1/2 star post. I know it's a minor thing but I wish they had them on Goodreads.

      Same here, I've asked several times but got nowhere. I feel there are different levels of like that are better explained by adding 2.5 and 3.5 alongside 3! Mind you, going back and changing it all would take ages! At some point I am planning to go and adjust things to get the right rating with half stars on all my reviews!

    This is onne of those things where I think I'll remember a blog or post and five minutes later I forgot all about it. I have learned to flag emails, but the trick is to not delete them before I've done follow up. lol

      I have sympathy as I have a shocking short term memory! I'm always forgeting which blog I saw something on and not noting down important stuff!

    I've been so behind on my blog visiting this past week so I've missed all of these! Lots of blog visiting ahead.

      Some weeks it is just impossible to find the time! We're in for a busy time with all the stuff I need to do. Today I need to do a washing and scrub the front door which is grimy after all the rain. Then I have two beds to change and wash the sheets over the weekend plus cleaning the bathroom and next week it'll be ironing and furniture shifting. Ugh, I need a House Elf!
