Hello, lovely readers (and anyone else who may have clicked through by mistake)!
Welcome to the return of Novelicious and what I hope is going to be a fantastic relaunch week to get us back into the swing of things!
Can you tell I'm excited? I am totally excited. As you may have noticed, the site has had a few design tweaks (whaddaya think?) and the navbar above gives a clue to some of the new features we have coming up.
Things I need to tell you before we begin;
* We have been selected as official book bloggers for sheknows.com and will be taking part in bi-monthly book club discussions over on their site. This is a fantastic opportunity for Novelicious to meet more readers and will hopefully open up the site to many more chick lit-aholics!
If you would like to join in with the book club, or chat to us on the message boards, just clink the link above and have a gander. Would be great to see you there!
* We have decided to change review marks to an out of ten rather than an out of five. Myself and the team feel that this gives a lot more scope with regards to scoring books. Obviously ten will be the highest score.
* We are going to be dedicating the whole of Thursdays to the Little Black Dress Books imprint; when the books are coming out, reviews of the books and interviews with the authors.
* We are tentatively stepping into the world of YA. These books will only be featured on one day of the week. There are some great YA books being released this year, so we thought it would be nice to cover them.
* New features include 'Top Tens' with posts such as 'Top Ten Chick Lit Book Covers', 'Top Ten Chick Lit Bastards' and 'Top Ten Funniest Girly Books' coming soon. We will also be doing a series called 'Chick Lit you Might Not Have Read and Probably Should', which I hope will be most enlightening, as well as a brand new column by an aspiring Chick Lit Writer – this will be appearing on Writers' Tuesdays.
I hope that all the above sounds good to you?! Make sure you stay tuned because we have some cracking competitions coming up throughout the whole week as well as the usual news, reviews and interviews.
Thanks for staying with us 🙂
Love,
Kirsty (Editor)
