A Backwards Story, Happy Birthday!!!
In my first year, I had 30-odd posts for the entire YEAR. Now, I tend to have that many posts in a single month. My first year, I had less than 20 followers. I made a New Year's Resolution to get serious about blogging and now, two years later, the blog is flourishing.
This week, we even hit 1,000 members!!!!!
I'm flabbergasted, continually amazed, and head-over-heels in love with each and every one of you bookworms.
Thank you to all of the readers, bloggers, authors, and publishers who have made A Backwards Story such a great place to hang out.
To thank you, I want to share one of my favorite new YA titles with year.
I went to an amazing signing last weekend and got some autographed goodies for you! (Check out today's signing wrap-up)
Not only is there a signed copy of INCARNATE in one lucky reader's future (check out today's review!), but there's also signed swag!
That's right, one lucky winner will receive:
*Autographed copy of INCARNATE by Jodi Meadows in paperback, complete with a butterfly drawing
*Signed bookmarks from Brodi Ashton (EVERNEATH, EVERBOUND), Cynthia Hand (UNEARTHLY, HALLOWED, BOUNDLESS), and Teri Terry (SLATED)
*An EVERBOUND guitar pick necklace
*ASUNDER stickers
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit me each week. I hope you continue to come back and discover great new books to read!

| Sorry for the horrible image! I emailed myself the photo from my phone, then deleted the file from my phone, and somehow, it deleted the photo from my attachment, too... So this is a still from the video I filmed!!! |
I loved Asunder! I've been pushing it on all my friends with Kindles since it's such a great deal! It's probably going to be our read-along book in April. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm reviewing it tomorrow. ADORE!! I loaned two friends read INCARNATE before the signing, and they each loved it enough to buy their own copies! Nook has the deal, too, btw! :)
DeleteThis is already in my TBR, and your review made me want to bump it up. It sounds like a great read. I love the premise and I think it will be a wonderful story. Also, the cover is a huge draw. Thank you for the chance to win and to read and review.
DeleteYou're welcome. Good luck, and I hope you love it!! I had so much fun with this book!
DeleteHappy 3 year anniversary! I've got about 1.5 years on my blog, so I know it's an accomplishment. Good for you! I should have said so first. My apologies.
DeleteHappy Blogoversary!!! :D

Thank you so much! It's so amazing to look back on how far I've come. And I didn't even know you a year ago, close as you are to me. CRAZY!
DeleteThe cover was probably the main thing that pushed me to read Incarnate. Can't wait to read Asunder!
ReplyDeleteThis series's idea is so original! It's good to read something like that from time to time.
