* For Authors, we prefer you to link to your blog if you have one. Please link unique posts each time ~ no repeats please. *

4. If you like, grab the button above and put it somewhere on your blog, preferably the post you’re linking up. If you’d prefer, you can just add a text link back to this Hop so that others can find it and check out all these great book links!
