Blog Tour Review - To Cage A God by Elizabeth May

 Blog Tour Review - To Cage A God by Elizabeth May To cage a god is divine. To be divine is to rule. To rule is to destroy. Using ancient secrets, Galina and Sera’s mother grafted gods into their bones. Bound to brutal deities and granted forbidden power no commoner has held in a millennia, the sisters have grown up to become living weapons. Raised to overthrow an empire―no matter the cost. With their mother gone and their country on the brink of war, it falls to the sisters to take the helm of the rebellion and end the cruel reign of a royal family possessed by destructive gods. Because when the ruling alurea invade, they conquer with fire and blood. And when they clash, common folk burn. While Sera reunites with her estranged lover turned violent rebel leader, Galina infiltrates the palace. In this world of deception and danger, her only refuge is an isolated princess, whose whip-smart tongue and sharp gaze threaten to uncover Galina’s secret. Torn between desire and duty, Galina mus

The Seventh Day of Blogmas - Blogger Recognition Award

Good evening,
I got tagged with this by Jennie from jenniely.com, via Twitter. I love tags! I really do. Mainly because I feel like I'm happiest writing within some kind of organised structure. It's lovely to get tagged on things like this when my blog has only been going a week. The book blogger community, especially those I've met on Twitter, have been so lovely and welcoming and supportive. I'm sure there is drama, but it's happening way over there somewhere, out of my sight! So I'm starting with a big thank you to Jennie, and check out her blog

How my blog started

Hmm, let's see if I can remember. It's been so long now.
A couple of weeks ago, I was browsing around other people's blogs, and I saw all this fabulous content and interesting reviews and yeah, tags. And I thought to myself I'd like to do that. Twitter is fine, but you can only really say so much there. Maybe I need a blog.
At the time I was in the middle of NaNoWriMo, so the sensible part of my brain decided that it would be sensible to wait until NaNoWriMo had finished, and to start a blog in December. The other part of my brain decided that in that case I should start by doing this Blogmas thing everyone was talking about, and do a post a day in the 24 days leading up to Christmas. Of course, I listened to both parts, and here I am.
I've pretty much dived into the deep end here. In the new year I'm planning on developing a better theme for this place, with my own headers and some distinctive content. I already have one participatory challenge in mind, that I'll be looking for volunteers for. 

Advice for New Bloggers


  1. Just go for it. If you feel like you've got something to say, say it. Find your voice.
  2. Look at what other people are doing, talk to them, get advice and support (and hopefully they'll help to promote your content) but don't be intimidated by blogs that have been running for a long time. If you stick with it, and put the work in, you can get there too!
So Jennie already tagged a lot of the bloggers I know, and there's no way I can come up with fifteen! But I'm going to tag:
