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

One month down already in this year.  For me, January already goes by fast, but this year a good portion of my month got sucked down the black hole of a bad cold---first my daughter, then my son, then me.  Fun stuff...NOT.  My poor blogoversary flew by uncelebrated, but I won't let that go for long now that I'm feeling better :D.   Meanwhile, its freaking spring weather already here and I'm feeling a bit robbed of my winter---someone send me just a little rain please!

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 January's giveaway was: Holly! Congratulations! :D
