Fiction Fare

Monthly Wrap Up – February

by 3 Comments

Well January flew by! We have been lucky here in the Midwest with a pretty tame winter which means we aren’t spending a ton of time sitting in the house reading…unfortunately.  Check out what we have been up to this month!

Fun with our Blogger Besties – Swoony Boys Podcast!

If you don’t know what #WYAKW is…it’s our YA trivia night!  We have been having so much fun with it and we hope you will join in!  Whadda Ya Know Wednesday takes place on the 3rd Wednesday of every month…(ok, sometimes it is the 4th one instead)!  We love interacting with all of you and we love talking books, book boys, and gushing over our favorite authors. We couldn’t think of a better way to do all of that than by combining all of those things, throwing in some awesome prizes, and having a blast while doing it!  We have a new scoring system and if you invite your friends and they play, you have an even better chance of winning so make sure you invite and remind them to join in the fun!  Make sure you’re following @Fictionfare and @Swoonyboys to play along!

EVENTS: STEPHANIE GARBER – CARAVAL
We had the opportunity to meet Stephanie Garber this month as she had a tourstop in Illinois.  Of course we made the roadtrip down to Anderson’s Bookshop and not only was Stephanie great, I found out she has the same taste in books as I do!  I did happen to get an extra copy of this book so if you are wanting a copy…we will be doing a giveaway soon.  The cover is GORGEOUS and I can’t wait to read!
INSTAGRAM – MARCH BOOK CHALLENGE

We love putting together the monthly Instagram challenge and really hope you will join us for March!  This month we decided to do a color challenge and we want to see all your posts so don’t forget to use the hashtag #SwoonyFictionColors and feel free to tag @swoonyboys and @jaimearkin when you post your pictures!

 
AUTHOR TALK
If you haven’t seen this feature on the blog (as well as Swoony Boys Podcast) go check them out!  We have had some great interviews with some amazing authors already posted and continue to schedule more.  If you want us to interview anyone specific, please let us know in the comments or reach out to us via social media.  We have so much fun with these and will continue to do them as often as we can!
