Hellooooo there guys!!
I might be a lil too happy for it being a Monday BUT it's MY birthday!! And even if I'm getting rather old already! (I can't believe I'm turning 35!!, I wish I could have got stuck at 28, I loved being 28) it's a day to celebrate and to do whatever the heck I want!
And because of that, I'm gonna be hosting a giveaway that will last the whole week here in my blog and another one in my Twitter!
As an unrepentant bookwyrm there's no better way to celebrate my birthday than with books (and of course cupcakes!!). I wish I had a bit more time to have organized a lil bit more of a celebration of my birthday, but with my regular work and all the work that is still to be done in my apartment... I just didn't have the energy!
This year was a recovery year for me, and I think I'm fully recovered yet but I'm getting much much better and I have so many amazing things that happened to me, so I gotta count it as a win!
- I attended BEA and got the most awesome roomies ever (I love you Britt, Becs and Sarah!!), and also got to meet and hang out with other amazing bloggers that I loooove and that I cannot wait to meet again next year!! ( Cassi, Octavia, Nikki, Christina, Cristina, Melissa!!).
And of course meeting so many amazing authors and getting books signed and getting some brilliant early ARCs and well, it was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!
And BEA is relevant to this giveaway because what I'm giving away is a preorder or copy of one of my top 5 books from BEA that I've read so far!
And which one are those books you might ask? Here they are:

Best of luck everyone! I'll have a busy day having lunch with the parentals, spending time with a friend in the afternoon and having my nephews over for dinner! Oh boy, I think I need a cupcake now!
Have a great Monday and Happy birthday to me! ;)

ReplyDeleteWheeeee! Happy birthday, Pili! I didn't know you were going to turn 35, because to be honest, you still look so young (like a 28 to me, no joke! ;D). Thanks for this giveaway! I won't be participating because I've read some of them already and want to give the chance to others, BUT YOU ARE SO GENEROUS. Best of luck to those participating and happy birthday again!!! :D

Both sound awesome. ANd I saw a copy of Six of Crows and I love the way the pages are black on the edges! Thanks for the awesome birthday giveaway!
