Birthday Giveaway! LC's Adventures Turns One Year Old!

So I can't even believe it, but today is March 26th and  it has been exactly one year (and 3 days haha) since I started LC's Adventures in Libraryland!! And boy let me tell you, a lot has happened in that year. I am beyond happy to have found such a wonderfully supportive online community of fellow book lovers, authors, publishers, and others who share an enthusiasm for reading, writing and blogging. I love all of you guys! No way did I think this time last year-- when I was still so new to blogging-- that I would now have the kind of blog that I have today. So here is a brief year in review-- and then a GIVEAWAY of course!!! :D

Some Highlights!

First Book Review: Fallen by Lauren Kate

First Blog Follower: Deborah from Deborah's Books (She also gave me my first blog award, and I cannot thank her enough for being such a cheerleader for my blog when it was just starting out!)

First Book Blog Meme: In My Mailbox!
Biggest Questions: What are these "ARC" things and how do you make a grab button?
Biggest Help: Parajunkee's Book Blogging 101-- I think I read every single entry she wrote!!

Favorite Part About Blogging:

My favorite part about being a book blogger is getting to know all the other amazing book bloggers out there and-- of course!-- talk about books. I love blogging because of the awesome community of book bloggers, and if it wasn't for you guys, blogging would not be nearly as fun or rewarding, so a big THANK YOU to you all! :)

 A Year in Review!

The Changing Faces of LC's Adventures in Libraryland:

My blog has undergone several changes over the past year! I've loved each and every design I created for LC's Adventures, and now I have settled on something that is all me :)
