Canadian Spotlight Month Recap and Thanks

The entire month of July has been dedicated to all things Canadian here at Ramblings of a Daydreamer. With Canada Day on July 1st, I decided it would be the perfect time to kick off both the Canadian Reading Challenge and the Canadian Spotlight Month. All month long I've shone the spotlight on Canadian authors, bloggers, celebrities, and cities. I've had giveaways for over a dozen books, mostly donated by wonderfully generous authors and bloggers. It's been a crazy month, but I've had a lot of fun, and I've loved hearing such positive feedback from fellow bloggers. Thank you all!

I'd like to say a huge thank you to the following authors for contributing to Canadian Spotlight Month with guest posts, interviews, and/or giveaways.

Leah Bobet

Melanie Cusick-Jones

Kelley Armstrong

Sarah Mlynowski

Alyxandra Harvey

Linda Poitevin

Kevin Harkness

Allison Cosgrove 

And I'd also like to say a very big thank you to these amazing bloggers for contributing:

Sarah from Workaday Reads

Rachelia from Bookish Comforts

Chrystal from Snowdrop Dreams of Books

I feel incredibly blessed to have had the opportunity to work with such incredible people this month. You've all been a joy, and I'm so grateful to you for sharing your love of Canada!
