July 2018 Discussion Challenge Link Up & Giveaway ⋆ It Starts at Midnight

Welcome to the July monthly link-up for the 2018 Book Blog Discussion Challenge hosted by Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction and Shannon @ It Starts at Midnight!

Well, we’re halfway through the year, and the discussions have been going strong. Consider this a little mid-year pep talk—we can do it! Keep going!

The winner of our May discussion challenge link-up was Kristen @ Metaphors and Moonlight! Congrats, Kristen!

If you don’t know what this challenge is all about or haven’t signed up yet (but want to), head on over to the challenge sign-up page to learn more!

Even if you’d rather not join, we hope you’ll stop by occasionally to check out the MANY discussion posts that are being linked up here – there’s lots of great discussions going on!

We’re no longer giving discussion ideas each month (because not that many people seemed to need them), BUT you can check out our list of the topics we’ve suggested over the past two years if you need some inspiration. There are LOTS of ideas there, and I’m sure you’ll find one you love!

Looking for even more inspiration, or want to see some discussion posts as an example? Check out the discussion posts on Feed Your Fiction Addiction or It Starts at Midnight!

Featured Blogger(s!)

This month’s featured blogger (as chosen by Nicole & Random.org) is Sam @ We Live and Breathe Books. Sam has been with this challenge for a long time and has posted many fantastic discussions.
Here are just a few of Nicole’s favorites:

(Commenting on any of Sam’s discussions will give you extra entries in the giveaway, by the way—if you already commented on them when they went up originally, that counts too!)

Since we’re halfway through the year, I say, let’s celebrate! You can choose any book released in 2018 (can be a pre-order if you’d like).

As always, the giveaway is open to anyone that The Book Depository ships to (or, if TBD doesn’t ship to you, you could choose an ebook!) up to $17 value.

Make sure to link up all of your July discussion posts here. This linky and the July giveaway will be open until August 7th (to give people a little extra time to link up – just in case you’re disorganized like we are). If, by some chance, you forget to link up a post this month, you can add it to next month’s linky (but no duplicates, please).
