As noted in Shelf Awareness, the Monique and the Mango Rains is a Literary Ventures Fund-sponsored book. Our publicist took note of the wonderful blog philanthropy (bloganthropy) going on and thought it deserved to be recognized. So many thanks and cheers to you for getting the ball rolling with your initial review of Monique! Good things come to those who have big hearts and do good things.

He sort of looked at me funny when I said that and I had to explain, "you know, not people who I interact with on LibraryThing, not people whose blogs I read." It didn't really help, he still looked at me funny. Kelly,

I was telling my husband about it last night and telling him that ‘even lots of people I don’t know commented!’ He sort of looked at me funny when I said that and I had to explain, “you know, not people who I interact with on LibraryThing, not people whose blogs I read.”

It didn’t really help, he still looked at me funny.

I ran downstairs and very excitedly told my daughter all about it. She responded, "and you know this person?" "Oh Yes!" I exclaimed. She asked,"from where?" And I spent a few bumbling minutes explaining that even though I haven't met you, I read your blog, and we're both readers, and this is a really big huge cool thing. She just didn't get it...oh well...I'm so psyched for you!!! Congratulations!! I never got the chance to add mine to the ARC Junkies board, but I was basking in your glow all day!!
