RITA Reader Challenge: Thank You

Bitchin' Blog Posts

I want to thank all the readers who submitted RITA® Reader Challenge, who pitched in at the last minute to help me post a review for nearly every nominated book. I have to say, I enjoyed having a knowledge of each of the nominees, and it made the awards more fun and exciting for me.

I also want to thank the Romance Writers of America, Inc., for granting permission for me to use the RITA® image and name (over and over and over and over and over again).

I’ll definitely do it again next year - and I’ll try not to post 10 reviews in a day next time! Thank you so much everyone for making this reviewapalooza so much fun!

Thank you Sarah for all your hard work! Thank you so much to everyone who reviewed, you’ve done untold damage to my book buying budget and I couldn’t be happier. Happy to have participated, can’t wait until next year!

Sarah it was wonderful and my TBR list is now about a mile long. Thanks a bunch, like I didn’t have enough work to do with that overdue tax return my accountant keeps hassling me about…

haha kayword moral 79 - the moral of the story is that there are at least 79 books I would rather read than do that tax return. And that’s just this week.

I really enjoyed Reviewapalooza—more than I thought I would. Plus I added some books to my TBR pile because of it, which has got to be good :)

Is it wrong, though, that the reviews I like the best are the worst reviews?

@Maria: you have HABO withdrawal? Ha! That is is funny. I promise some very soon!

I am so happy you all enjoyed the RITA challenge!

Reviewapolooza - I love it. Knowing something about each book made it more fun - I’m terrible at remembering book titles, so I’ve been checking the review list to remind myself about each category winner. I’ve already finished one book I discovered from this (The Wicked Wyckerly) and have more on my tbr list.

Thanks for posting the reviews and the winners. Besides adding to my TBR list, it was big fun.

Seeing my reviews posted was a big thrill for me. I thank you for the opportunity to put by big fat opinion out there for all to see. Lord knows my co-worker are tired of hearing them.
