When Black Friday Comes...

It's the most wonderful time of the year, indeed! And to commemorate this joyful season, boys and girls, Reviews by Cat Ellington - The Complete Anthology Limited Edition Holiday Gift Set (Books 1 & 2) will be released on the biggest shopping day of the year - yes, that's right, Black Friday!

The Holidays are so very exciting and I have always loved them. More is my overt enthusiasm for this, what the release of my very first holiday gift set inspired, of course, by my passion for those lovely fragrance gift sets (like Taylor's White Diamonds and  Passion ... and Givenchy's Organza) sold in various retail outlets during the holiday season. And much like those fragrance gift sets, that only dwell in retail for a restricted time, so will it be for Reviews by Cat Ellington - The Complete Anthology Limited Edition Holiday Gift Set (Books 1 & 2). So splurge on yourselves in this festive time, why don't you, and prepare to bask in a double shot of staunch literary criticism — gleefully brought to you by moi. Reviews by Cat Ellington. A unique critique. 💋

• Reviews by Cat Ellington - The Complete Anthology Limited Edition Holiday Gift Set (Books 1 & 2) is now available for pre-order at Amazon and in the Google Play Store
