Setting BBAW Goals

image

What I like about my blog is that I get to choose what books I want to read and review. I've expanded the reviews on my blog to include now mainstream chick lit and YA which are two genres I dearly love. I'm enjoying myself and I've told myself (jokingly) I'll stop blogging when my TBR pile disappears. Which might be a while as I have 600 + books...

A year from now, hopefully I'll still be blogging. I'm almost positive I will be, but I don't know how my career will be like then so we will have to see. The biggest thing I want to accomplish is that I hope to eventually self host my blog or at least get my own domain name.

Either way I'm really proud of my blog, next week is my 3 year blogiversary and I'm planning something really special so stop by again next Monday!

    600+ books? Wow! I thought my TBR was big.

    I bought my own domain name, a .com, but now I want .net. I'll probably own both. The 72 hour transition from publishing to blogger to the custom domain is daunting. So is getting everyone to update their links, and creating MetaTags, and getting a site map. I think I've just given myself a panic attack!

    I didn't participate in this post because the only goal I have right now is to be blurbed in a book like you!

    You are doing great and I hope to still see you blogging next year. You read many books that I don't, so exposes me to new things - expands my repertoire.

US and Canada addresses only (No PO Boxes). Good luck! PLEASE LEAVE A WAY FO R ME TO CONTACT YOU!!!! ENTRIES WITHOUT CONTACT INFO WILL NOT BE ENTERED. I was more than pleasantly surprised and shocked while reading this book. I have the first three books of the Twilight series and I will admit that I am not really a fan of them. The writing in those books is not very well done, plus I have problems with the storyline and the characters in general. Plus with all the hype surrounding them, it just makes the reading seem more tedious. Therefore I approached The Host with rather low expectations and prepared myself for another Twilight except with aliens. Boy was I in for a shocker. When I started reading, I was amazed at how I got sucked into the book. I really didn't expect to, be...

It's here! Today is my 3 year blogiversary! (Never mind tha t the first entry is marked on 9/20, I had written that post the day after and then backdated it) . I can't believe that I'm still here and blogging away! As al ways, the reason why I started blogging was thanks to Camy Tang's blog which inspired m e to write my own blog. My main goal was to blog about the books I read because I figured I'd like others to know about the good books that were ou t there . I honestly can't believe that it's lasted this long and I hope to keep going strong. I've met so many new friends in the past year alone and I've even gotten to meet several in person and I'm going to meet more next week at the National Book Festival! I'd also like to say thank you to those who nominated me for Best Cultural Review Blog for the 2009 BBAW Awards. It's truly been an honor that you considered me for that award and even more awesome that I made the shortlist...
