It’s countdown time again!


Some of you may remember our Countdown to Christmas 2009 last year. It was so much fun that we’ve decided to do another countdown for summer!

From June 1 through June 21 on the LDSWBR Blog we will be highlighting different authors and their books that were published, or will be published, between January 1 and July 31 of this year. You are sure to discover several great books to add to your summer reading list.

Just like the last countdown, we will be holding a contest as well. Read on to find out how you can be entered into the drawing for a $25 Amazon gift card, a 3 chapter/30 page critique by author Nichole Giles, and one of 11 awesome books donated by the authors participating in our countdown.

  1. I’ve got a novel out called “Lipstick Wars” (published by CFI) that I’d love to send you for review. It’s the story of a struggling young mother with an escaping toddler who takes Eden places she never expected to go. Through the help of a crazy artist, a perfect professional and, of course, her visiting teachers, Eden is able to concur her personal “Lipstick War.”

    Where would I send it?
