      Let's see…
      I followed your blog, we're already friends on Goodreads, and I just added Orphan's Song to my TBR. That's…twelve, I think?
      So excited for this. :)

        If you wrote the review last week and earned points for it, then it doesn't earn additional points this week. But if you just posted the review, then yes!

      Is Orphan's Song in the same comedy vein as When Destiny Calls?

        No, Orphan's Song has its moments of comedy and comedic characters, but it's pretty different stylistically from When Destiny Comes Calling.

        Haha! If we had been a little more prepared, we would have pre-ordered it… :D But I wanted the paperback, so… Anyway, I like to think that the fact it's out of stock proves it's selling well!

      Ooh, more yummy things!

      I've added Orphan's Song on Goodreads, I'm your friend there, I follow on Twitter, and I just tweeted about it…

      I'm guessing mentioning it in a blogpost LAST week doesn't count…?

      Ooh, extra incentive to get my review up this week! I'm going to try… What day does "this week" officially end? Sunday? I'm still reading it but I'm sick and NaNo things are assailing me so I'm busy. D: *flail* BUT YOUR WRITING IS SO BEAUTIFUL ALSDKJFLDJ HOW DO YOU DOOOOO IT?? <3 …Ahem. Okay I'm done now. XD

        This week will "officially" end on Wednesday, October 15th, which is when the next Incentive will go live! :)

        I do hope you feel better soon. Being sick is no fun. :( But it is always more enjoyable when you have something to read!
