And, BOOM! We’re done until next July. When I started the Summer Book Trek Reading Challenge a few years ago, I never dreamed it could be so awesome! This year, we gave away 112 books! (Participants, check your emails. The last of the winner notification emails went out this morning.)
Thank you so much to all the authors and publishers who donated their books as prizes for the challenge. Several of you have reported back to me that you’ve seen a bit of a bump in sales and reviews on those books, and that is the one of the reasons I do this craziness every summer.
So are you ready for the numbers?
