2 Year Blogoversary Giveaway



That's right folks! This month, Addicted 2 Novels turns 2 years old. *TEAR* It feels like only yesterday when I was trying to come up with a name for my blog and hated it immediately. Le sigh!

First off, I wanted to thank all of you guys who have followed me and supported me these past 2 years. Y'all rock my socks off, and I can't tell you how much all this means to me!

An extra special thanks goes out to two of my favorite people in the world, Karen at FWIW and Tiger at All-Consuming Books.

Karen, you were one of my first blog buddies and quite simply one of the sweetest, kindest, funniest people I know. I remember when I only had 10 followers, and you were one of them! You introduced me to emoticon poo! I can't wait till ALA midwinter so we can finally hang out and high-five and all that good stuff.

Tiger, I've known you before blogging and when we were die hard Rathers. You are the Dark Queen for life, and I hope Niall (pronounced Neil, not Nile) comes and showers you with his uhh, darkness? *AWKWARD* You make me laugh so much and just simply brilliant. I know you're going places, and I can't wait to tell people "Hey, I know her! She pressured me to read Ilona Andrew's Kate Daniels series, and introduced me to the Beast Lord, rawr!"

And to everyone else, especially all you Texas peeps and everyone I met at ALA and signings, thank you so much for blessing me with your friendship. I love y'all like whoa.

GIVEAWAY TIME!!!

Through out the month of October, I'll be hosting giveaways, interviews and more, so be sure to stay tuned. The grand prize will be any YA book of your choice, even if it's a preordered copy. YAY!

All you have to do to enter is follow the instructions for the rafflecopter form below. Extra entries will be given to those who "prank tweet" my Karen. This giveaway is open to international participants (provided The Book Depository delivers to your area) and will end November 1st at midnight, EST. The winner will be contacted via email and will have 72 hours before a new winner is selected.

Good luck, everyone, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

    Aww Happy Blog Birthday! My blogs turning 2 this month too! And I'm also doing a giveaway -hint hint-. I'll enter yours if you enter mine xD. In fact if you enter you'll probably be the first because no one wants to win stuff it seems. I am selling you my sad story to get a sympathy entry xD. I have no shame.

    Love you!
