December was a busy month here at AudioGals. We unveiled our latest Romance Audio Infographic dedicated to the best in Historical Romance on the 1st, which was accompanied by our Historical Romance Hall of Fame. We ran our fabulous holiday giveaway, posted a cute video of Laura Kinsale interviewing Nicholas Boulton, launched a new Currently Playing for the Gals feature, welcomed two new reviewers (Diana and Jessica) AND still found time to squeeze in twenty-two reviews!
We’re looking forward to more fabulous features and reviews in January, and we’ll be launching our biggest ever audio giveaway, so here’s to a very Happy Listening New Year!
