A Book Wanderer’s One Year Blogiversary Giveaway!!!

(Is it blogoversary or blogiversary?? I’m so confused. πŸ˜‰ )

Today it’s been one year since I shared my very first post on this blog! (If you’re curious, it was a review of Frankly in Love by David Yoon.) I’d wanted to start a blog for years, even purchasing my domain several years ago, but I was nervous and procrastinated, settling on focusing on my bookstagram instead. I’m not sure what finally made me take the plunge, but I did, and I’m so happy!

I had no idea, of course, that the next year would be such a strange one. Having this blog during a time of quarantine and social distancing has been a kind of mental savior. In other words, you all have helped to keep me sane. πŸ˜‰ So, to say THANK YOU, I wanted to host a giveaway to celebrate! <3

The Giveaway(s)!

I’m hosting two giveaways, one for my US readers and one that will include my international readers, as well. When I ended up with two copies of Anna K: A Love Story by Jenny Lee, I immediately thought I would love to use the extra copy for a giveaway. I meant to do it several months ago, but… here we are. Ha. I adored this young adult modernized version of Anna Karenina. You can check out my review here!

My second giveaway will be winner’s choice of $20 gift card from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Kobo or $20 worth of books from Book Depository!

The Rules:

  • Giveaway runs from today, September 10, 2020 through the rest of the month. It will end at midnight (Central Time) on September 30, 2020.
  • Only US readers can enter the Anna K book giveaway, but everyone can enter the $20 Gift Card giveaway, as long as Book Depository ships to wherever you are.
  • I will email the winners, and if the prizes haven’t been claimed within 48 hours, I’ll choose new winners.
  • I will ship/award prizes within 48 hours of finalizing winners.
  • I’m not responsible for any damaged, lost, or stolen prizes through shipping.

Good Luck!

Happy Wandering!
