Summer 2017 Comment Challenge: August Sign-up

Thank you to everyone who has participated this summer. We’ve had so much fun and would love it if you join us for the final month of this challenge. For those unfamiliar, the Summer 2017 Comment Challenge is hosted by Lonna @ FLYLēF and Alicia @ A Kernel of Nonsense and was put together as a way to help book bloggers form new blogging friendships. Each month we pair bloggers and encourage them to comment on each other’s blogs all month long. July participants are currently getting to know one another, but starting today you can now sign-up for August. Scroll down for all the details about this challenge including the sign-up sheet. Join us and make a new blogging friend!
