It's my fourth blogoversary. Wow.
I honestly never thought I'd still be blogging in the sixth form. I thought I'd have given up some time around my GCSEs.
And I did think about it. Many times. But I also thought I couldn't leave the community of the many friends I have gained through starting blogging, all the people I've met, all the things I wouldn't have done.
I've been to publisher launches (Love you, Hot Key Books. RIP, Strange Chemistry!). I've hosted semi-successful events (Rainbow Reads, The Month Before Halloween). I've written for The Guardian and been featured on it too. I've read much more widely than I would have done. I've met too many people to list, and been in contact with so many more.
I haven't been brilliant at it. Output has drastically fallen and attempts to increase it must be delayed until after coursework.
But this blog is still alive, and that calls for celebration.
So, international giveaway time!
TWO winners will each get to pick books that I have featured on the blog, to a value of up to £10 from The Book Depository. They could have been my wishlist, books I recieved, books I reviewed, anything. Just have a browse. If I convinced you to try a book, please say!
The rafflecopter below lets you enter, and you can earn extra by sharing the word.
The giveaway ends at the end of Sunday 15 March 2015. Good luck!

Congrats on your blog turning 6! That's amazing that you've stuck with it so long. It seems like so many blogs I follow are dwindling out and it makes me sad. I hope you have another 6 years in ya ;)
ReplyDeleteBTW... you are killing me with that cake picture. I'm seriously having some major cravings for it now.
