This hop is hosted by Cuddlebuggery from November 15-29th
This is the Getting to Know You Blog Hop so let’s talk about me for a second.
I’m 22 and a college graduate with a degree in English Literature and a minor in Writing. I’ve had a large book collection all my life but it has sort of exploded over the last 2 or 3 years. Now we have something like 17 bookshelves all over the house, though most of them live in our dedicated library.
Myself and Mindy McGinnis |
If you want to know more you can explore the blog!
I’m all about choices so here’s what I’m going to do: the winner of this giveaway can choose any book from my giveaway box. There are over 20 books to choose from: ARCs, finished copies, both adult and YA.

!!! are great! Nice to meet you (in sort of real life).
This sounds like a fun hop! It's amazing you have 17 bookshelves!! I only have 1 super over filling one. Haha! I've always wanted a library in my house. 🙂
Nice meeting you~
Cindy @ In This World of Books..
It's kind of crazy, yeah. We just consolidated it into a proper library last year.
I've been following and loving your blog for quite some time now. This post was just an awesome way for me to get to know you better. Great post! 17 shelves? OMG I only have four D:
Alex @ The Book's Buzz
YAY! I know you've been around. 🙂 Four isn't bad, not every book on my 17 is mine, I share with my mom.
Wow…if I thought there was ever a person who could beat me at bookshelves (at least before I moved)…you would definitely be it haha. SEVENTEEN?! That's a pretty impressive number haha
Bookshelf skills! 🙂 Thanks. What about you?
Sadly, I'm now down to 5 bookshelves, but before I moved I probably had about 10 (and in my parent's house we had a WHOLE ROOM made with bookshelves…out of the wall? Like they were part of the wall…I'm crap at explaining things haha). I've moved so many times though and no longer have a childhood home so I had to WAAAAY cut back on my books 🙁
My mom wants to get built-in shelves on one of the walls in the library, I think she thinks all the standing shelves look cluttered. I need to go through mine and cut them down because there's a bunch I'll never read.
I'm a college student and a book lover.
What year?
I've always wanted my own library
It's small but it's nice.
I love reading YA books and love watching the movies that go along with the books!! 🙂
Ohhhhh yes, I love a good adaptation. The bad ones not so much.
I am so jealous of your 17 shelves of books!! That is SOO awesome!!! I have shelves… and drawers… because I ran out of shelves and so I have resorted to putting books in my dresser drawers!
Oh, I never thought of that! Brilliant!
Just like Rory from Gilmore Girls!! Love it!
I love watching B movies from the 50s. My cousin has a walk-in closet with book shelves. He calls it a "book pantry". Thanks for another great givie.
Oooh book pantry! Sounds so cool! I love B movies from all eras, especially the monster films.
I'm so glad I got to find your blog through the blog hop! Thanks for participating!
Thanks! And thanks for visiting me!
I'm so impressed by your 17 shelves! I'm a former English major who now works for the USPS. Also, I met my husband because of Harry Potter. We've been married for five years.
This is a great giveaway! Thanks!
Oh that's pretty cool. I met my fiancee online because we were both nerds.
My mom's an English teacher and my dad's a freelance writer.
That's awesome! I would have loved that.
I plan on minoring in writing in two years. I am insanely jealous of your 17 book shelves, I own a small one that is barley filled up. Thanks for the giveaway!
I have the opposite problem. Most of mine are double stacked.
I am semi-afraid of cows…
Cows? Is there a reason behind the fear?
I wear glasses but only for the 3 minutes before I get in bed. I hate wearing them!
Dede
It took me forever to start wearing mine. I love my new ones.
Such an awesome thing to have like 17 bookshelves!! I have a little bookshelf in my bedroom, and now it couldn't fit with more books, so I put my books all over the house 🙂 Thank you so much for the giveaway!
I used to have mine all piled up in my room. It was a disaster.
I have always loved reading books all my entire life and love winning them or anything also!!!
Well good luck.
I dream of writing a novel, but it's much harder than I thought. Thanks for the giveaway! 🙂
It is difficult. I want to write but I haven't pulled myself together enough to write more than an outline and a few scenes.
I'm so jealous that you have a dedicated library! That is my goal for the next place we lease: enough room to have a library or an office big enough for me to have a library corner at least, hehe. Thanks for the giveaway and it was great to get to know you 😀
When I move out I'll have to give up my library. I'll be so sad.
Aside from loving books in a way that unbookish people just don't understand, I am a happily married dog lover with 3 mutts running around my house! Not little ones either; my two girls and little boy are big ones!
Hahaha. And yes, the non-bookish don't understand at all.
Hi, I am also a senior in college… so I will soon be a graduate. (haha I don't want to leave college yet)
I am right with you in terms of my love for books have just exploded within these past few years.
I'm a book worm so I like to collect books! My dream goal is to make a mini-library like the Beauty and the Beast! Thank you for this amazing giveaway! 🙂
I really want a rolling ladder.
I really want to go to Paris! And meet Anna and Etienne
I still haven't read that book even though I own two copies.
Apart from being a book lover, I love watching Korean and Thailand dramas.
I'm from Iowa but live in NM now. Retired and have more time to read book and blog.
I'm from KY. I'm single and love to read all kinds of books.
I'm about to be a first time mom and the very first thing I bought for my baby girl was a book! I'm super excited to read to her everyday and pass on my love of reading! 🙂
Seventeen shelves sound awesome! I would love that. 🙂
I've lived in the same house since I was two (so, 17 years).
