Four-Year Blogoversary Celebration and Giveaway!

Check it out, friends! I've reached my four-year blogoversary today! Whaaaaaaaat!

(I'm a Star Wars mood today. Unapologetic about it.)

Book blogging has changed my life. I started while I was halfway through my senior year of high school, and here I am, halfway through my senior year of undergrad/university. My final semester in college is coming up, and I'm scared, excited, and hopeful.

Blogging has been such a wonderful outlet for me, over the years. College is hard, but reading has always been something "there" for me. I could say the same about blogging. I've not missed a single day of posting on my blog in the last four years, and that is a privilege as much as it is hard work.

I'm so grateful to everyone who has had a hand in my blogging journey. There have been so many, some who have come and gone, some who have been there from the start, some who I've just met. I'm thankful for all of you. And I'm listing as many people as I can remember because I adore you all. You've inspired me, cheered me on, put up with me; know that I appreciate everything!

Pili, Carina, Liza, Erin, Sophia, Jessica, Nereyda, Nick, Cyra, Meredith, Katiria, Jessica, Jessica, Jana, Cookie, Grace, Eileen, Kel, Jess, Shannon, Anna, Rachel, Rachel, Jasprit, Heather, Aila, Aneeqah, Jaime, Jaime, Lily, Brooke, Lauren, Cyn, Zareena, Angela, Theresa, Keionda, Becky, Di, Lis, Steph, Teresa, Renee, Kristyn, Rachel, Zeee, Jess, Lisa, Amy, Danya, Carole, Genni, Julie, Genesis, Tammy, Lauren -- thank you for being there for me, in some capacity, during this year.
