Unbelievably, we are almost at the end of 2023, and almost at the end of our FOURTH year of #BookSpin !!! If you have completed or bailed on ANY of your spins this year, you qualify for the giveaway!! Below are the details!!

1. Each BookSpin or DoubleSpin completed or bailed on this year counts as an entry!!
2. Books read for additional BookSpinBingo spaces do NOT count - only the official Spins each month (so, a limit of two entries per month).⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) 3. If you want to enter the giveaway, you MUST complete the Google Form!! The link to the form is: https://forms.gle/tc6U17AuVw4ssG2v8 There are even more instructions there because I LOVE overexplaining things!!😂

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) 4. The form can also be used to track spins throughout the year, even if you don‘t want to be entered in the giveaway. If you do not include your mailing address on the form, I will assume that you are using it for tracking purposes only.

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) 5. Because I have this form set up for both personal tracking and giveaway tracking, there are blanks for you to put in the title/author for each of your spins, and then checkboxes to show which ones you actually COMPLETED. You must check the box to qualify that spin for the giveaway entry!! Otherwise I will assume that you didn‘t actually get around to reading that one. ⬇ 1y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) 6. I will be choosing FIVE winners!!! Each of these winners will receive ONE book!! In the past I have used Book Depository for international winners, so this year I will be trying Blackwell‘s and hoping for the best!!! If you win, I will contact you for your preference. I can either send you a random book from your TBR or you can provide me with a “top five” list and I‘ll choose a title from those. ⬇ 1y
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) 7. I genuinely wish I could send a book to each of you!! There are 255 people on the 2023 tag list, which is just mind-blowing to me! Thank you all SO MUCH for making this challenge so fun and engaging.
8. Even if you aren‘t doing the giveaway, I would love it if you took a moment to fill out the Google Form (sans address if you prefer) just for the fun of the stats – seeing how many books we all managed to read together this year!! ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) 9. On January 3, I‘ll be closing the 2023 form and downloading all the info to sort through. I‘ll try to announce the winners sometime that following weekend, around January 5-7.
10. I am using the 2023 tag list for the final time today!!! Going forward, I‘ll be switching to the new 2024 tag list!!

yourfavouritemixtape This challenge was so much fun. Thank you for doing this!! 1y
ImperfectCJ This is such an awesome challenge. I remember when I first started (just before lockdown, I think) and had so many questions about how it worked...your over-explanations really hit the spot for me! I skipped one month this year, and August just didn't feel complete, so now I know that this is one challenge I absolutely need in my life! 1y
Crazeedi Is there a new form for 2024, alas I didn't read much this year, tragedy and medical issues. But I want to join in again next year. Thank you 1y
TheAromaofBooks @Crazeedi - The link in this post is for the 2023 form. I will post the brand new 2024 link on January 2 when I post the January numbers!! Even if you only read one spin this year, feel free to fill out the form. This has been a very tumultuous year for me as well. Trying to push forward!! 1y
Crazeedi @TheAromaofBooks thank you so much for doing this! 1y
Kristelh @TheAromaofBooks where do I find the form for 2023? 1y
Singout Thank you, Sarah! I‘m confused though: why is the form posted here not the one I‘ve been filling out all year? Each month I‘ve been adding my titles and whether or not I finished them and the previous content has been there. This form is totally blank. Which is fine, if that‘s how you have to do it, but I don‘t quite get it. 1y
Kristelh Never mind; I found the form 1y
TheAromaofBooks @Singout - The first time you filled out your form, Google should have sent you a confirmation link, and using that link should open your WIP form. Opening this link while signed into whatever email you used originally may also work. Unfortunately, I can't send you a direct link to your partial form. However, it does show that you have submitted one!! (I can't see your specific responses until I download the whole thing, though.) ⬇ 1y
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) If you need to submit a new form, I should be able to eliminate any double responses when I download the information into a spreadsheet. But hopefully you can find your form out there somewhere!!!! 1y
Singout Thanks again! I just redid the link above with the cut and paste from my good form: just the ones I actually read! No biggie if it doesn‘t work when I already won a book this year! 1y
Bookwormjillk I just submitted (sorry if I have two- technical difficulties.) Such a good year! Thanks for doing this. 1y
Yuki_Onna Hi Sarah, just wanted to make sure you got my completed form? 🤗 I'm still a bit insecure when it comes to Google forms... 1y
TheAromaofBooks @Yuki_Onna - Yes!! I see your name!! 1y
Yuki_Onna Cool, thanks! 🎉 1y
keys_on_fire Thank you so much for all you do for #bookspin (and its spinoffs!). While I didn‘t officially participate this year, I still kept up my journal entries on my own. Can I be added to the 2024 tag list, please? 1y
TheAromaofBooks @keys_on_fire - You are on this year's tag list, and please feel free to fill in the form if you completed any Spins, even if you didn't post about them. I'm way better at participating in challenges than I am about posting about them, so no judgment here 😂 1y
AllDebooks Form completed. Looking forward to another year of spins. Thank you for hosting Sarah x 1y
Read-y_Picker Hi Sarah! Happy New Year! Please add me to the list for 2024. Thank you for all you do in this community 🥰 1y
Aconight forgot to post, holidays were hectic! Im focusing on chunksters this year so I may or may not join bingo as much. Appreciate a tag still just in case. :) 1y
