Sharing Beyond Books #453 Comment Giveaway December 17, 2022

Welcome to Sharing Beyond Books. (Note - I am going to continue to post monthly now, probably through the end of the year. This one runs through January 14, 2023.) As much as I appreciate the six to eight regular commenters, I am thinking about ending this post. I haven't updated books for a while and I have been so busy that I am not keeping up with mail outs and payouts.  I know I will get to them but the time input adds to my work load. I checked my spreadsheet and there are five or so questions still available (that haven't been asked before) so I might continue for those. We'll see how I feel in January

Thanks to everyone who commented on the last question.
Last post SBB #452: Alina asked: What are some of your favorite holiday traditions??
I enjoyed the different traditions that were shared. Elaine noted that her family opens one gift on Christmas Eve. I like that and we did that when I was young. In our home, mom and dad picked the gift and it was always pajamas.

The Winner from SBB #451 comments is #2 BN100 who can make a GC choice if international or book choice from the Updated (**Finally!) ARC/Review titles or (recently updated) Love and Christmas titles - all linked near the end of the post. -- [9-18-2021 I have added a new box and crossed off books no longer available through August 2021.]

Please let me know your choice by completing the WINNER FORM.
WEEK #452
(One Question.)
Ashfa asks: Do you enjoy reading books from villain’s POV? Who is your favorite villain??
I have enjoyed some stories from the villain's POV. The one that comes to mind is Villains Rule. When I was looking for an image, I was reminded of: Voldemort (Harry Potter), Cornelius Snow (Hunger Games), Pennywise (It), Maleficent, and more. Of course, most of those are not from the villain's POV.

Thanks to those who are sending in Questions. DON'T BE SHY! Surely everyone has a Q or two you'd like to ask. Input suggestions in this Suggested Question Form. At the end of each month, I draw from the suggestions I used during the month and that person will get a 1/2 book choice or $2.50 towards GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions. Thanks for sending in questions! The supply of questions is dwindling so share some if you think of any -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify them.
November question was provided by ASHFA who gets a GC credit.


Your turn to share.

  4. Congrats to the winners!

    I don't think I've actually read a book from the villain's POV before! Can only think of Maleficent really.

    Although if retellings count then 1 off my faves is about Hades!
