I started my Book Review Giveaway for two reasons: one, I wanted more people to read my reviews. Most bloggers I know bemoan the fact that even though book reviews are the main reason they blog, readers gravitate towards more “exciting” posts like memes, lists, giveaways, and discussions. Two, I wanted to put one of the books I’ve read each month in the hands of someone who’s really excited to read it. I stopped doing it because I just needed a break. Well, the break is over! Here’s how my giveaway works:
- Each month around the 15th, I’ll post the giveaway, featuring all the books I reviewed the previous month. (sort of like a wrap-up post, but with bonus content!)
- I’ll leave links to my reviews because I want you to read them if you haven’t!
- The giveaway will run for two weeks, until the end of the month, at which point I’ll randomly choose a winner.
- **Bonus: If I manage to post EIGHT reviews in a month, I will choose TWO winners! (That’s gonna be hard, my average is 6-7)
- The giveaway is INTERNATIONAL, provided The Book Depository ships to your country.
- No substitutions! If you win and you’ve already read the books, or you just don’t like the sound of any, then I suggest you don’t enter. This giveaway is pretty specific and this is one rule I’m strict with. I usually post a variety of books, both adult and YA, in lots of genres, so hopefully there will be something that interests you.
- I use Rafflecopter for my giveaways, and there are multiple ways to enter. You don’t have to have a Twitter account to participate!
And that’s it! Without further ado, here are the books I read and reviewed in April:
A Boy and his Dog at the End of the World by C.A. Fletcher
The Princess and the Fangirl by Ashley Poston
Atlas Alone (Planetfall #4) by Emma Newman
Wicked Saints by Emily A. Duncan
The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling
I love this idea, Tammy! So fun and a great way to wrap up your month in reads!
So much fun! And you had some great reads last month.

Interesting collection of options!
I would pick Wicked Saints.
My favorite book from April was Eleanor & Grey by Brittainy C. Cherry.
Glad to see this start back up. I never entered before so now I’ll start – of course you know I love your reviews and am always finding new books here. I would pick Wicked Saints and my favorite book in April was Magic Bleeds (Kate Daniels #4). Well, it was my only 5 star read so I’m going with that.
I think I’d probably pick “Wicked Saints”!
If I win I’d like to get A Boy amd His Dog at tje End of the World. 🙂
Yippee! You always share books I want to read. I would love to win A Boy And His Dog At The End Of The World! Thanks for the fun giveaway:)

Only two of the reviews, “Westside” and “Atlas Alone” have a comment box, so I am commenting on the “A Boy and his Dog at the End of the World ” review here. …I like the sound of the book being “exquisitely written.” Excellent writing is definitely one of the main things I require in a good read. It sound like an odd, strange story. I suspect it would make a good episode of “The Twilight Zone,” searching for a dog after the apocalypse.
Hey John, thanks for letting me know about that. I’ve fixed it now so you can leave a comment on any review. Good catch!
Ooh, these all look so good but if I win I’d pick Wicked Saints or A Boy and his dog at the end of the World
I would choose “Wicked Saints”! Thanks for the chance!!
I read and reviewed A Boy and His Dog at the End of the World and loved it. I would love to read Westside. Thank you
Great way to generate traffic! I’d pick A Boy and his Dog.
I would choose A Boy and his Dog at the End of the World <3 Thanks for the chance!

I would pick Titanshade (or possibly Westside).
I like A Boy and his Dog at the End of the World. Thanks for the chance to win it!
I’d be thrilled with either Princess and the Fangirl or Westside. Thanks for the great reviews and for the giveaway.
Oooh, Wicked Saints, please! That one has been on my radar for a while. Though I’ll have to check out your review of it to see why it was a 3.5-star read for you…

I would go with Titanshade by Dan Stout.
I’d pick between “A boy and his dog…” and “Titan Shade”
Some good reads this month!

This is such a cool feature, especially since you always read such a great variety of books. A Boy and his Dog at the End of the World is one I would definitely love to read after seeing your 5 star review for it.

I think I would choose The Princess and the Fangirl. It seems adorable. 😀
That’s a cool idea and you always have a great variety of books you’ve reviewed.
I really want to try Titan Shade!

Oh, this is such a cool idea for a giveaway!
Oh man! I’m excited for The Princess and the Fangirl and Wicked Saints :):) thank you so much for this opportunity 🙂
I’m not sure which I would choose, you read several that really appeal to me, maybe Wicked Saints or The Princess and The Fangirl.
Thank you so much for the amazing giveaway – I think I’d pick Wicked Saints 🙂
I would choose a Boy and His Dog because it sounds so well written and different.
Such a lovely giveaway and some great titles to choose from.
I would love Titan Shade.
Lynn 😀
I think A Boy And His Dog At The End Of The World sounds really good to me. I really enjoyed the review.
