It was back to winter this week with temps well below the zero mark. Winter does not want to leave this year.
I got a lovely email from Feedspot this week telling me that my blog has been selected as one of the Top 25 Canadian Book Bloggers. This is the most comprehensive list of the best Canadian Book Bloggers on the Internet and I'm honoured to have been chosen. Yay!

This one is described as a witty Regency romance.
Free Kindle books:
A novella Regency fairytale. Pure escapism.

ReplyDeleteReading that book makes me proud to be Italian.:-)
DeleteCongrats on being one of the top bloggers! Have a great week and enjoy your new books.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Thanks AJ!
DeleteSame here it was warm and then it got cold again. The temps are supposed to go back up into the 70s this week but I don't know if Spring is here to stay. Congrats on being a top blogger. I hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteWe usually go from winter to summer, from winter coats to shorts. Not much of a spring...
DeleteCongratulations!!! That's awesome- and well deserved. Good for you! :)
ReplyDeleteSame here w/ weather- it's been cold and snowed twice this week. Spring is AWOL!
Thank you so much!
DeleteOh Winter won't leave here either! Congrats on the blog. That is awesome. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteCongrats on the recognition. We are trying to push winter out too, but it is being stubborn.
ReplyDeleteYeah, makes me wish I lived in California.
DeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being chosen one of Canada's top bloggers! Well deserved. Winter isn't leaving Minnesota yet either. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteCongrats on being part of the Top 25! The Beast of Bath is eye catching. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the amazing recognition from Feedspot. I don't know about you, but unsolicited praise always makes me feel special and makes it all worth while!
ReplyDeleteWhilst your historical romance book choices are a bit too over the top for my liking, I do like the cover of 'A Wager To Win' and when I checked out the premise of 'The Beast Of Bath', certain aspects of the story line struck me as very 'Beauty And The Beast-ish'
Enjoy all your books and have a good week :)

2018 has been a tough year for me so far so this DID make me feel good. I don't usually read too much romance but these books did catch my eye for some reason.
DeleteCongrats and enjoy all your books! I'm looking forward to spring too.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I am visiting your site and I should say I love it. And your blog deserves the prize and more. Can you send more of winter to my place at Dubai? The summer is almost here and I dread it already.
ReplyDeleteGayathri @ Elgee Writes
Thank you for your kind words! I have a sister who lived in Dubai for 5 months and said that the summers are unbearable. But I'd gladly send you some cold if you trade in some of that heat!
DeleteA witty regency romance sounds a good description! Congrats on making it onto a list of Canadian book bloggers, something to lift your heart.
ReplyDeleteI know, right? Whenever I see the words witty and Regency together I think it a great combination. Yes, the nomination was uplifting!
DeleteIt's just been entirely too wintery this year. lol Hope yall warm up a smidge!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great group of books. A Wager to Win needs to go on my wish list. Let's hope for some spring to come soon. Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS, Laura. :) They chose a great blog for sure. Exciting news for you.
ReplyDeleteIt snowed lightly all day yesterday, and it is quite cold today. I hope warm temperatures arrive for all of us soon.
ENJOY your books, and CONGRATS again.
Congratulations on being top blogger.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
