1 Year Blogversary and Giveaway!

     You have go to be kidding me. It's been one YEAR since I started this blog?! I am in shock! I still feel like it was yesterday when I called Zareen and told her I am starting a blog. At that moment we both decided the blogs will be created. This past year has been some journey. I have met amazing people, been to the most amazing book events ever, and the best part I made life long friends! zfrom author visits at school, to attending events, and random adventures with my crzy by amazing book pals, this year was just wonderful! I can't even explain how fast this year went! But I couldn't have gotten this far if these bloggers hadn't existed:

First off Zareen from Reach for the Stars...and the Books. First off she is my best friend, and blogging partner. Though we do not have the same blog url, our blogs are still connected. And the fact I get to celebrate my blogversary with her seriously makes it amazing! You guys must check out her blog, it is fabulously fantastic and has great reviews :).

Next I need to thank my Big Sib, Savannah from Books With Bite. Savannah helped me learn the rules of blogging. She was one of the people who guided me early on, on how to ask publishers for requests, great tips on review writing, and a posting schedule! She knows how the blogging world works so if you need help you must ask her! She has helped me get this far, without her I have no idea what my blog would be!

Third is the most random blogger around! Patrick from iRandom Blogger. Patrick quickly accepted me into the Chatting group! If you guys have no clue what I am talking about, well check out the Paperbacks and Parley  chatting blog! This is a great blog where you can meet other bloggers and find about the latest books! Now back to Patrick, or as I like to call him Patricio ;D. He has a fun blog, and he is quite the personality!

Then there is my biggest inspiration...Katie from Katie's Book Blog. Katie is everything I want to be. Her blog sweet, simple, and just plain awesome! As a college student I can't believe her blog is so organized, and she always has a new post. I am a constant reader of Katie's Blog, and over this past year I have learned she has some of the best reviews! They are well thought out, to the point, but still have a lot of personality. Over this past year Katie has helped me with so much, and given me so much advice. I can not thank her enough! I hope one day I can have a blog that is as awesome as hers!

There are a ton of other bloggers who have been amazing friends such as Lucia from iLive, iLaugh, iLove Books (she got me interested in design, after she made my first banner!), Kreag from I Devour Books, and DforDarla's Definite Reads have this year memorable!

But not only are there amazing bloggers, but so many authors as well! Because of them I discovered the amazing world of books! I would also love to thank all the authors who came to my book club event at school, as well as all the authors I have connected with online. Y'all have no idea how much it means to me to talk to you all of you! I would love to mention all of you one-by-one, but then this post might get too long ;D. For all the authors out there, you are all my inspiration!
