Indie Author Hop winner - congratulations!

Thanks to everyone who took part in my paperback giveaway as part of the Indie Author Hop, from June 13-19, hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer & Krazy Book Lady

Congratulations to Elizabeth Kotkiewicz Hyatt, chosen by random through Rafflecopter, who wins a paperbackcopy of Kiwi in Cat City and a signed bookmark. I hope you enjoy it!

I really enjoyed reading all of the answers to the question:
what 5 things would you take to a desert island? 

I'd be inclined to cheat and take a house, a speedboat, friends, a fridge that never ran out of anything, especially Milky Bar choc, and... my cutie cat, of course!!

Here are the answers that I received... all anonymous, of course! I think they make great reading. They show how different we all are... but books and food are constants! And someone is even taking Mr Depp! Good taste! I love how some answers are totally serious and practical, and others are not at all! :) Thanks also to the person who nominated my book! It made me chuckle that books, food, GPS and Kindles were the most popular choices here... way above hubbies :) And kitties got a mention too :) There also seems to be a demand for solar-powered Kindles... come on Amazon... make their day!

So, what would you take?

Here are some of the replies for your enjoyment... 

My Nook, a generator (just for my Nook), Kellan Lutz, water, food and a bed
