1st birthday GIVEAWAY



Happy birthday to blog. Happy birthday to blog. Happy birthday to blogggggggg. Happy birthday to blog!

If you couldn't tell from my disastrous singing voice (sorry for that, by the way) it's Adventures from the Bookshelf's first birthday! My blog is now walking, talking and getting up to all kinds of mischief. At least I think that's what a one year old does, I don't know, I don't have children.

It's been a great year and despite my many stops and starts, I can't wait to get back into the routine of blogging. I've been welcomed by my fellow book and lifestyle bloggers with open arms and have felt so welcomed to the community. I couldn't be more grateful for the friends I've made so far.

And to show my appreciation to everybody who's helped back my blog what it is today in the past year, I'm hosting a little giveaway!



Get your mitts on a £10 Waterstones gift voucher to treat yourself to some lovely books in the January sale. No doubt I'll be very jealous of whoever wins as I'm currently on a six month book buying ban. (I had to get my Mom to purchase the voucher for me as I do not trust myself in a book shop at the moment...)

The competition is UK only - sorry to international readers - and will run until midnight on 19th January 2014. Good luck - may the odds ever be in your favour!  
 
 
a Rafflecopter giveaway

  13. Happy Birthday to your blog <3 Well done, and hopefully more years to come.

    I'm doing a reading challenge this year where I am reading predominantly female authors, so I'd get a few of those if I possibly could. Although I spotted a beautiful book about architecture the other day and I'm dying to learn what the correct term for drainpipes is. Oh, it's probably just drainpipe, right? How boring.

    Congrats again <3
