WINNERS! + an award

I chose 5 names to win The Night Gardener by George Pelecanos out of 51 valid entries (yay!). The winners are:

Alexa!
gahome2mom!
Chey!
Jwx4!
Sarah Z.!

Emails are on the way to you, please get back to me with your mailing address within 48 hours.

Liyana over at Liyanaland was kind enough to give me the Proximidade Award:

This blog invests and believes in the Proximity - nearness in space, time and relationships. These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement! Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this clever-written text into the body of their award.

Thanks Liyana!

I nominate:
Senfaye at A Maze of Books
Isalys and Vanessa at Book Soulmates
Ladybug at Escape in a Book
Library Lounge Lizard
Rebecca at Number One Novels
Enchante at Sleeping with Books
The Book Blogger
Lauren at Shooting Stars Mag

I know for some of you passing this along can be a pain, so don't worry about it. I just want you all to know that I love your blogs!
