ReplyDeletesorry ,I don't have a favorite traditionally published author. I don't have a favorite author at all as of now. I kind of just read of eye & ear. "Oh, the vanity!" . . . I know, I know.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary!! You've done amazing in your two years as a blogger!
ReplyDeleteThe signed set of Easy and Breakable sounds awesome, as do all the two book necklaces and all the prizes under that. :) Thank you so much for the giveaway!
Local bookstores are important. It feels a bit personal. You can drop in & see releases & events compared to driving out or a quick click online. . .but the bookstore has to be involved w/ it's customers to make an impact.
ReplyDeleteI love
ReplyDeletepaper cuts!
stay bookish!
the escapist !
& ur blog, duh! (:
I'm grateful for Ya authors. We all know writing a book obviously isn't easy & I've seen many of them connect w/ their fans. . .that's very admirable. I also love book bloggers that give honest reviews. A teen only has so much money . . . a honest review really is needed. I also appreciate the giveaways !
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the book necklaces and the e-copies of Infinite Repeat. I'm also interested in the Syrena trilogy and that mystery book from Crystal!
ReplyDeletePersonally, I want *all* the books ^^
ReplyDeleteAlso, it's only been two years? Oooh, I feel like its been longer~ but congrats~
Congratulations! So many milestones! And fabulous prizes, wow. I'd love to have the Syrena Trilogy!
ReplyDeleteHappy blogoversary! Congrats on all your accomplishments, I hope you have another awesome blogging year! All of these prizes look amazing! I think I'm most excited for the signed copy of the Selection and the Fire and Flood swag. I can't wait for your Twitter party! :)
