HAPPY BLOGOVERSARY TO UNABRIDGED BOOKSHELF!
Can you guys believe it has been a year, since I started Unabridged Bookshelf!!
It has been a wonderful and crazy first year!
When I started my blog, I did not think it would gain any readers or followers what so ever.
My first year goal was to have 250 followers, and well that has been majorly surpassed.
First, I want to say THANK YOU, yes you, the person who is taking time out of their busy lives to visit and read what I have to say.
Thank you to every single one of you that has stopped by, read a review or post that I put up, followed this blog, said something nice, or just left a comment.
Every time someone takes time to check out Unabridged Bookshelf, my heart just swells.
YOU ALL ARE TRULY AMAZING!!
THINGS I HAVE LEARNED IN THE FIRST YEAR
- Blogging is not easy, and it is a lot of work, but also a lot of fun!
- Do NOT Procrastinate (still working on this one!)
- There are more amazing books out there, then I will ever have time to read.
- Life is too short to read a bad book
- Every once and a while I need to read a book just for me
- The biggest lesson: HAVE FUN!

PRIZE PACK 1 is US ONLY, because shipping would be way to expensive!
Sorry International Followers, but I have other goodies for you!

Sort of small virtual mystery box.
