This is the last round-up I will pull together from Google Reader (waily waily). After doing this 185 times using Google Reader, I have it down to an efficient system, and I am very worried about trying to do it with Bloglovin. But hope on, hope ever...and let me know if my efficient system failed to find your post this week!

Other Good Stuff
I put up a call for help last Friday--I would very much like to know how one can keep current with MG and YA fantasy/Sci Fi releases in the UK, and indeed in all countries where books in English are published. Here's the post with the useful links I know of so far....more are welcome!
Top ten horror stories for junior high readers, at The Nerdy Book Club
And a beautiful (mostly) middle grade fantasy giveaway at Random Musings of a Bibliophile
Even though I don't actually love McDonalds, per se, I am tickled to pieces by this Hello Kitty meets Fairy Tales promotion (which happened in Singapore, and is now over...). This is Hello Kitty meets "The Singing Bone."
Read more at Once Upon a Blog
(not middle grade, but I have an ARC of Proxy, by Alex London, to giveaway courtesy of the publisher here, just in case anyone's interested....)
Thanks for all the links. I can see I missed a lot while on vacation.
ReplyDeleteHope it goes well with Bloglovin. I am amazed that you put together this list every week. I always find a couple of things I've missed, so thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the links.
ReplyDeleteI'm on my way to visit.
