Happy Blogiversary Giveaway


Woohoo! Today is A Bookworm's World 2nd Blogiversary! I wrote my first post two years ago and thought I would just record my thoughts on the books I read. Wow - this has turned out much bigger than I ever thought possible. And so much fun!!

This year it's been a little harder to keep up with my reading - both books and blogs. I went from part time to full time work and it's really cut into my reading and blogging time! Although, I must say, I have a pretty excellent job - I work at a public library.

With that in mind, and my inability to read every book I see, I'm going to launch a new feature - Over the Counter. (Unless any of you can come up with a catchier name....) I'll be mentioning books that pass under my scanner and over the counter at the library that I find interesting, but don't have the time to read cover to cover.

And to celebrate my second blogiversary I have a giveaway. I have a brand new copy of Bitten by Canadian Kelley Armstrong to giveaway. (Watch for my review next month) And this one's international. Just leave me a comment to be entered. Ends. April 18th at 6 pm EST.

Thank you to each and every reader, commenter, subscriber and all my bloggy friends out there!

Happy Blogiversary! (I passed the two year mark last month but forgot to mention it - maybe I'll remember on the 3rd). Congrats on going full-time, at a library no less!!! Yay!

Luanne, a very happy blogversary to you!! I think your new feature sounds wonderful. Having just retired from working at the library, I do understand about not getting to read all the books that pass over your scanner. :-)

Don't enter me in the giveaway. I already have this book. But, thanks for sharing your book journey with us!!

bookaholic said...

TWO??? That's it?? You are such a veteran of this stuff. I'd have guessed you're older, like me.

Anyway, happy blogiversary. And all that good stuff, too.

No need to enter me -- I actually read Bitten a few years back. I'm dropping in with the official thanks for the e-mail. I've got this posted at Win a Book for you.

Emidy @ Une Parole said...

Wow, happy blogoversary! Hope your blog will be around for another two years, at least.

That new feature sounds like such a good idea! It'll be interesting to see what cool books people are checking out from the library.
