September Giveaway Winner

I completely forgot to draw this on Sept. 30th so here tis.

The winner of September's book giveaway (thanks to random.org) is...

FinEsse!

Congratulations Esther! You are the first NZer to win the monthly giveaway (and local too). 'Comes a Horseman' is a bit of a bloke's book I'm afraid... so good thing you are engaged to one ;-) I'll get the book to you this weekend.

Everyone else, thanks heaps for becoming followers of Flannelgraph. This month's giveaway is These Boots Weren't Made For Walking by Melody Carlson. You'll be in with a chance to win again (if you are a follower that is ;-). And be sure to check out FinEsse's blog... she has legendary art skills!

GBU, Burton (and the Flannel friends)

About Flannelgraph

Any church-going kid growing up in the 70's will remember Flannelgraph only too well. It was THE Christian storytelling tool back in the day. Nowadays, it is nothing more than a nostalgic memory (although I'm sure some retired Sunday school teachers still swear by it.)

I love reading, especially stories which strengthen my faith in Christ. I also love recommending good books to others.
So, I have come up with a cunning plan. To create a blog where myself and other like-minded friends can share our views on the various novels we've read... hopefully encouraging you to buy them, read them, be encouareged, and support the authors in using their gifts to glorify God.

What better name to call this... than 'flannelgraph'?

Review Ratings

0-1.5 (out of 10)
Absolutely terrible. No redeeming qualities and is not recommended for anything except fireplace fodder, or under a table leg to make it level.

2-3.5 (out of 10)
Below average, but may have some very minor elements that barely keep it from becoming fireplace fodder...

4-5.5 (out of 10)
Very, very average. You may enjoy this book if you have different literary tastes to the reviewer, but please don’t get your hopes up.

6-7.5 (out of 10)
Good-ish. If you like the series, genre or author already, possibly worth the read.

8 to 9.5 (out of 10)
Very, very good. An example of excellent authorship and any flaws are easily passed over.

10 (out of 10) HALL OF FAME!
A masterpiece! 10/10 books become immortalised in Flannelgraph's coveted 'Hall of Fame'.
