One Year Blogoversary!

It's been just over a year since I posted my first review here on Reading in the Corner! (2/11/11) The blog and my style has changed a lot since then! I never even dreamed that I would really, REALLY do this and love it as much as I do.  I never imagined that I would actually get a (fabulous) custom blog design. And I definitely didn't think that I'd be able to do it consistently for a whole YEAR. As a previously failed blogger (when talking about general "life" things and another about cooking), I really didn't have high hopes that I would find/maintain the motivation to do this for real.  I think that the community itself has probably been the biggest sustaining force for me this time. It's really incredible how many fabulous people that I've met.

 Anyway, I decided that I would try to do a couple of small giveaways for this event, even though money things are fairly tight right now.  I just love you all so much! :)

NOTE: If the Rafflecopter forms are not showing up, trying using one of the links (such as the Enter to Win) and it *should* pop up. (It did for me.)

First giveaway: I went to a signing in St. Louis with Ally Condie back in November and I bought and had signed a beautiful paperback copy of Matched just for you! The paperback cover really is beautiful. I almost want to keep it for myself but I got the hardcover personalized to match Crossed...

Second giveaway: I have a couple of ARCs sitting around that I would like to give away! I'll give 2 winners a choice of one of these ARCs. (I'll try to get a real picture of them in here later tonight) My ARC of Shatter Me is from before it had a cover (hence the image below), but I promise that the content inside is just as fabulous!
