Giveaway Announcement // Thank You for 500 Followers!

To start this post off, I wanted to say thank you all so much for 500 followers! Whenever I started this blog, it was primarily to simply archive all of the reviews that I wrote on Goodreads. I never thought I’d meet so many great people, bond over amazing books, and become so connected to so many of you in the community. I love being a part of this.

Screenshot (47)Saturday night I got the notification that my blog had reached 500 follows and I truly cannot express to you how ecstatic that made me! When I took a month long break from blogging, my follow count had really plateaued (since I was not posting) and I honestly thought it would be a while before I reached this milestone. To anyone new, I’m so happy to have you here and I hope that you enjoy the content! I know it has been a while since I’ve written a book review, and I was actually planning to today, but once this happened, I knew I needed to make this post a priority! However, I will be posting a few very soon.

To celebrate and to thank you all, I’ve decided to do a giveaway! In an effort to show some love and support to international readers, there will actually be two: one for U.S. readers, & one for international readers. Doing it this way ensures that an international reader, whoever it may be, will win a free book! While I am excited to offer a prize to U.S. readers as well, it has always bugged me that international readers have noticeably less access to books and I wanted to give you an equal chance! The 2 winners will get their pick of any book under $15 on Book Depository, given that it ships to you!

I will, of course, not be using my own affiliate links for this, but have still chosen to support another affiliate: Caitlin @ Caitlin Althea. Both prizes will be chosen through her affiliate links.

The entries are the exact same for both giveaways, and each entry (besides the required following of this blog) is optional! There are 5 ways in which you can enter your name, so you can chose to do just 1 entry, or up to all 5! The choice is yours! (: Note: one of the entries is to comment on this post and tell me what book you’d choose if you were to win! You must still click the link below to check off that you’ve done this to have your name entered!

Both giveaways will be one week long, starting today and ending Monday the 19th.

  1. Super Congrats! You much deserve the recognition. See how much we missed you??? I’d like to join in the giveaway. If I win, I want to donate the book of your choice to one of your new followers. I think that would be a nice thing to do. Have a great day!

    1. Thank you so much!! You’ve always been very kind and supportive. Your idea to gift the winnings to a new follower is very generous of you Darnell! Since I’m doing the giveaway through the raffle site (in order to make sure everything is recorded the right way and the winner is completely random) to officially enter, click the ‘U.S. Giveaway’ link & input your email address. You’re already eligible for three entries: you already follow my blog and my twitter, and you commented! So all you have to do is check them off and the site will add your name to the drawing! (:

  2. Super exciting! Congrats!! I can tell you are passionate about books and work har Sri make this blog a huge success. If chosen, I’d love “Girl, Stop Apologizing” if it fits the price range. If not, there’s still so many others out there I’m sure I could find another one I’d love!

    1. Thank you! And you’re welcome! I’m so excited to have the opportunity to do the giveaway and when I started planning it out, I knew I had to make sure to involve international readers as well! I’m happy to be able to offer it!

      Oooh, interesting choice! I’ve never read any of Cassandra Clare’s books but I’ve heard endlessly good things about them!

  5. Brittany, this milestone is so so well deserved! But you deserve like, a million followers! Nobody deserves to be deprived of your amazing personality and posts! I’m also so happy that you’re choosing to use my bd link 😭😭 this may seem taboo to say, but one of my biggest blogging dreams is to make money out of it, even just a little, and I’m so glad that you’re making it come true 💚💚💚💚

  6. Yay! Congrats Brittany, 500 followers is amazing 🙂
    If I was lucky enough to win I’d pick a preorder of Darkdawn by Jay Kristoff I think.
