2013 LIKES The Book Avenue PITSTOP Challenge



We call this challenge a PITSTOP since we want to take a MOMENT, STOP and say THANK YOU to everyone especially to all the frequent visitors of our website which includes our favorite authors, fellow bloggers, followers and readers who have shown us their great support and love throughout this journey.

So what exactly is pitstop and how does it relate to our challenge?

Simple. In motorsports, a pit stop is where a racing vehicle stops in the pits during a race for refuelling, new tires, repairs, mechanical adjustments, a driver change, or any combination of the above.

So as we hit the 2013 likes, The Book Avenue would like to refuel, gas up and change drivers.
We want you to be the drivers! 

So this challenge is all about you, tell us what you think about the page, tell us what you like and don't like, tell us who and what you want to be featured next.

In exchange, we are throwing away a few of our favorite books, some of which are new releases, best sellers and soon to be released titles.




SO ARE YOU READY TO TAKE 
THE PITSTOP CHALLENGE?

Very difficult question and I honestly do not have an answer! Do I still get an "e" for effort?? I think you ladies do an amazing job from awesome trailers... to daily posts... to keeping all of your followers up to date on the new authors as well as what's coming up with the ones we already adore. I love you ladies and appreciate all everything you do!
