Bodacious Blogging Book Reviewers Award


I was delighted to receive this award from Cheryl at CMash Loves To Read - thanks so much. 

If you are given this award you must first accept it by leaving a comment on the post you were nominated on. Then copy and paste the post and add it to your own blog. Make a list of the last 5 books you read and pass the award on to 5 other bloggers (no backsies!). Please also identify the blog from which you got the award and don't forget to tell your picks that they have a blog award!

The last five books I read are

The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austin by Syrie James
Avalon by Anya Seton
A Note from an Old Aquaintance by Bill Walker
New York by Edward Rutherfurd
Cursed by Carol Higgins Clark

I'm passing this award on to

Emidy at Une Parole
Laurel-Rain Snow at Curl Up and Read
Lydia at  The Lost Entwife

Enjoy!

A Week of Awards!

The first time for anything is always exciting and receiving one's first blog award is no exception. I was delighted and then to add to the thrill there came another.........and another. Funny how things often come all at once. Thank you so much to the three lovely ladies who thought me a worthy recipient.
Of course, once the euphoria wore off came the realisation I had to pass them on and that meant some serious thinking and decision making. I'm sure everyone feels like giving them to everyone and the book blogging world is so full of wonderful people and blogs.
So.........here we go


A big thank you to Marg at Reading Adventures for the gorgeous dragon award. I really appreciate this one because commenting is something I've tried to work on.

This award is for those followers who are the most loyal and give bloggers joy by commenting regularly and giving their support. Pass it on to 3 to 7 followers who are as loyal as dragons.

I'm passing this one on to five bloggers who took the time from their busy lives to welcome the new kid on the block , who commented on my first posts and became my first followers. Your encouragement and support was much appreciated - thank you!
