What makes a novel sparkle, truly sparkle? For me it all comes down to one deceptively simple word – character.

The No Rest Winner Post
… NOT!
Hey Everyone!
After an uber-tiring hellish week at work (yeah, I know I sound like a broken record, but for the past 4 weeks it seems those are the kind of days/weeks I’m having at the office) this weekend instead of sleeping the day away and chilling we had our office retreat. I wasn’t very enthusiastic about spending 7 days of the week cooped up with my colleagues and start the week right away with no rest at all *sighs* Even though we went to a beautiful lakeside hotel and had fun having a scavenger hunt in the beautiful autumn forest, I still miss not having those 2 extra days to let the steam off and recharge my batteries before Monday rolls around. But enough complaining, let me tell you who were the winners this week.
This week congratulations are in order to
the lucky winners of a paperback copy of …
