Women of Genre Fiction Reacing Challenge

The first Women of Genre Fiction Reading Challenge review poll is now closed.  After 70 votes we had a clear first and second place but for the third spot we had a 3-way tie. To break the tie we had Rico (icowrich) re-read the 3 reviews and cast his vote. (He was the only one of us who had not already voted.)

January WoGF Review Poll Winners:

1st Place: Carl V. Anderson (Carl V.)
Dragonflight by Anne McCaffrey
2nd Place: Matt W. (Mattastrophic)
Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood
3rd Place: Sue Bricknell (SueCCCP)
Kindred by Octavia E. Butler

Our three winners will find an Amazon gift card, $25, $15 and $10 respectively, waiting for them in their email. We hope they’ll use them to buy books and regale us with more great reviews!

Congrats to our winners and thanks to everyone who participated in the poll. There are more prizes up for grabs each month so if you didn’t win this time you still have plenty more chances.

Great job for the first month of the Challenge everyone and congrats to my fellow winners. Thank you all so much who voted for me and thank you WWE for such a great prize and great challenge. I’m having more fun than I suspected I would, and I had pretty high expectations!!! I’ve been introduced to some great new authors and look forward to continuing to share my reviews during the months ahead.

Congratulations to SueCCCP, Mattastrophic, and Carl V., and thanks for writing such great reviews! I’m looking forward to seeing what interesting reviews will pop up in the next eleven months. 🙂

Congratulations to the winners!
I voted for Carl and Sue’s reviews and I am super happy that you both won a gift voucher. Go buy more books and keep writing great reviews. You write the kind of reviews that make me want to immediately put everything else aside and pick up the book you’re talking about. (In Carl’s case, I desperately wanted to read the next in the Pern series – I’m somewhere in the middle of that one).

Altogether, the first month of this wonderful challenge offered some great reviews. Both my wallet and bookshelves are suffering for it, but hey, there are worse vices than buying books, right?

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
