The time it was my 2 year blogiversary

Well.  It's been another year. [Technically, it was a year on 10/26, but whatever.]

This year has been a little different from my first year of blogging.  I hit some pretty major [for me] milestones, expanded into author interviews and blog tours as well as being invited to be a Throne of Glass Ambassador by Bloomsbury and the designated blogger for Macmillan. Twice.  Not to mention all of the new and awesome friends I've made and authors I've stalked found.

And seriously, you guys, I can't thank you enough.  You've come along with me on this crazy, amazing ride and I wouldn't still be doing this if it wasn't for all of you.  Extra special thanks to the few of you who have been with me from the beginning...your support means everything to me.

Now, let's get to the good stuff, yes?

We can't have a blogiversary celebration without a giveaway and I think this one is pretty good.  I've been hoarding these books through out the year, with this in mind.  I give you.... my blogiversary arcstravaganza!

Up for grabs to one winner are the following signed arcs:

Icons by Margaret Stohl
Asylum by Madeleine Roux
Tandem by Anna Jarzab
Crewel  and Altered by Gennifer Albin
SYLO by DJ MacHale
School Spirits by Rachel Hawkins
The Program by Suzanne Young
Let the Sky Fall by Shannon Messenger
MILA 2.0 by Debra Driza
Parallel by Lauren Miller
Reboot by Amy Tintera

This giveaway is US only. [I went back and forth with the idea of offering INT with the stipulation that the winner pays for some of the shipping cost. And while it seems shitty, it would be necessary with this stack of books. If you're international and you want to enter, email me and we can discuss it.]

As always, the rules are listed on the "terms & conditions" of the Rafflecopter widget.

Before I let you loose to run amok and enter, stand there and let me hug you.

**Good Luck!!**

The time it was my blogiversary

Well.  It's been a year.

When I started this blog [Thank you, LeAnna], I never expected to continue writing things, let alone be recognized at various events by people.  Needless to say, this year has been quite interesting.  I've gotten some amazing books, met some awesome people, seen some phenomenal authors and found some friends I can't live without.

And for all of this, I say thank you.  The best way to show my appreciation for all of you reading my posts, retweeting them and just plain pimping me out is to have one hell of a giveaway.

There will be one winner.

Yep. You read that correctly. ONE WINNER.

So.  Let's see what we've got...

White Cat, Red Glove and Black Heart by Holly Black.  All hardcover, all signed.  WC and RG are gently used copies, but both are in excellent condition.  BH is brand new.

Matched by Ally Condie, an ARC of Carnival of Souls by Melissa Marr, The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson.  All three brand new, not signed. 

A UK version of White Cat by Holly Black and a paperback version of Divergent by Veronica Roth.  Both brand new, both signed.

Ten by Gretchen McNeil and High School Bites: Two Books in One [Vlad/Joss] by Heather Brewer.  Both are brand new, both signed. Ten is hardcover, HSB is paperback.

Beautiful Creatures, Beautiful Darkness, Beautiful Chaos and Beautiful Redemption by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. BC, BD, and BC are all paperback, BR is hardcover. All brand new, all signed. [BR is not pictured because I don't have it yet.  I'll see Kami and Margie on 10/23.]

Also included is a "Light Caster" shirt that I got from Comic-Con with both Kami and Margie's signatures.

The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin.  Brand new, paperback, signed.  I don't have an actual picture of this book because it's not in my possession yet.  I am flying to Chicago to see Michelle on 10/29 and will be getting it then.  I will also include any extra swag I pick up from the signing, including pins, Noah Shaw bookplates, stickers, etc.

If you have any questions beyond what I've posted here, please contact me. Thank you all for reading, commenting and fangirling right along with me.  I doubt I'd still be doing this if you weren't coming along for the ride.
