I hope your experience it good this year. I thought it was promtfest not giftfest though, but I could be wrong. (I think I remembered PMing you to commiserate as I'd had a somewhat similar experience in the promptfest's first year running.)

I'd love an audible of The Chine. I already have both Her Minder and The Chine in e-book and Her Minder on Audible. It might be a little while before I actually get around to reading/listening and doing a review as I have a huge backlog of books on the TBR pile and some travels coming up soon that will keep me busy for awhile.
