1 Year Blogoversary!


It's my 1 year blogoversary today!
I can't believe it's been a whole year since I started blogging, it only feels like yesterday. I was having a little look back at my first couple of blog posts (back when I had no idea what I was doing) and god are they terrible. I've learnt so much about blogging over the past year, and I'm still learning! It's amazing how much a year can change everything. And this has definitely been one of the best years ever!

Over the past year I've met so many amazing bloggers; read so many amazing books and had a hell of a lot of fun running my blog. And it's all been because of you guys - my amazing followers. 
You guys are just amazing and I love you all! Thank you so much for sticking around with me, it's been one brilliant year :)

And to thank you guys for been fantastically awesome, I'm doing a giveaway!
It's an International Giveaway, so anyone can enter as long as the Book Depository ships to your country!

Again, thank you guys so much for being so awesome!

  2. And my fave book of the year so far?? Hmmm, it'll be a very tough fight between many books but the two that have made me more emotional and have made me feel all the feels are Clockwork Princess and Crown of Midnight... even though there are many other books I've absolutely adored too!

    I've read too many incredible books this year to narrow it down to one. I'll give you three instead. ;) Eleanor & Park, Remember When, and The Sea of Tranquility.
