"What's New": January New Releases & Giveaway!

Happy 2014, Everyone!!
It's a fresh start and I'm finally getting back to my little spot on the web. I've truly missed it and I'm glad to be back on my feet after a few health set-backs.  January is looking to be a fantastic month, with my 4 year blogoversary coming up (wha???), my birthday just around the corner, and look at that amazing list of new releases!!  Publishers more than make up for the December slow-down with all those lovely new titles---so many I'm looking forward to!

So if you're new to Stories & Sweeties, here's a little run-down of this feature: at the start of each month, I do a little thing called the "What's New List & Giveaway" where you'll find a full list of the new releases in YA for the month, and entry to the giveaway. At the end of each month, one lucky winner will get to choose any new release as their prize!

 First things first! The winner of November's giveaway was: Maria! Congratulations! :D
