I have an announcement (I have always wanted to say these words) *g* Last night I was told that this review site was shortlisted in the Best GBLT Blog category of the Book Bloggers Awards. I didn’t nominate the site so I would like to thank whoever did – I appreciate the fact that you like the site and the content.
To be shortlisted I had to submit 5 posts, including 2 of my reviews, and obviously the judging panel liked the submissions. Unfortunately the button that was sent to me to post, for some reason isn’t showing either here or on the website, so I’ll ask Christian to fix it, if he can. (He just did, Yay)
The next step is the voting which closes September 12. Here is the link to the BBAW website if you want to vote for this site (or any of the other nominees for that matter)

Thanks guys – you rock, and don’t forget to vote.
Congrats, Wave! Just went and voted for you.
Thanks Nichem – yours might be the only vote.:)
Nope, you’ve got at least two. 🙂 Congratulations. I looked through the others but didn’t recognise any of them so didn’t want to vote at random. Good luck.
Sigh. And I’m STILL American it seems. Or at least located there. LOL
Thanks Tam. I appreciate it. I would offer you a cookie but am afraid that could be regarded as a bribe.:)
On the flag thing – that is all Cathleen’s fault. Christian is still trying to find out why it works sometimes but not all the time.
CONGRATS! That is wonderful and exciting news. I’m glad to see that some is noticing all the hard and excellent work everyone has put into this site.
I still haven’t figured out what’s wrong with the stupid flag thing… but I voted for you, too! 😀
I voted for you too… I hope u win.
Suzi.
That’s absolutely terrific! This site deserves to win. I’m going to go vote for you. 🙂
*done voting* 🙂
Congrats, Wave! The blog is getting better and bigger!
Yay! Congrats!!!
(throws confetti)
Thanks guys
I really appreciate the vote of confidence for the blog. Whether or not we win, just to be recognized means a lot, not just for me but for everyone here who does such outstanding work – Jenre, Lynn, Kassa, Kris and last, but certainly not least, Christian the man.:) Now if only he could fix the flags!!
Congrats, Wave and crew!! You guys deserve the recognition for your detailed and helpful reviews.

Thanks very much. I appreciate the congratulations on behalf of everyone here.

Thanks. You’ll be pleased to know that one of the reviews I submitted was for Two Steps Up so in a way your book was also responsible for the site being shortlisted.:)
I added my 2 cents and voted. I have to say, there were lots of blogs listed for awards that I have never heard of and I like to think I keep on top of this stuff. Oh well, so much for that! LOL
