Hosted by I Am a Reader & Buried in Books
This giveaway is special for me. Not only is it Back to Books Hop, but I’m also celebrating 400+ followers! So this is my follower appreciation giveaway as well, I’m combining the two – which means you are going to have the chance to win something I’m SO jealous about! As soon as I saw this, I knew I had to give this away, and I realized I desperately wanted one for myself too!
OK, so without further ado, this is what you have the chance to win here at
My Shelf Confessions:
The journal is completely handmade. The leather is embossed and the key is also coming with it! So you can write your own shelf confessions – or whatever else your heart desires.
Since this is a follower appreciation giveaway, I am making following mandatory – this is the only way I an ensure that a follower is a winner, I know I don’t usually do this and it won’t happen for any other giveaways.
Thanks so much for following me, for being part of my blog experience – for reading, and for celebrating with me! Good luck to you all!

What a beautiful prize! I couldn’t see if the contest was international or not. I’ve entered, but live in Canada… maybe you can delete my enteries if contest is US only.
It says it’s US only on the Hop Linky but it is actually INTL – so you’re good! Thanks for letting me know though, really appreciate it!
Good luck!

That has to be the most amazing journal ever! Thanks for the giveaway!
Your so welcome! Glad you like it! Best of luck
I’m an avid journal writer. I would LOVE this journal to death. Thanks for the giveaway!
I used to journal all the time too, if I had this one I think i’d probably journal more often – and not just on my computer! Your welcome and good luck!
Thanks! Good luck!!
Oh dear books – oh how I love you, love you more than I love my poor little fingers that have been worn to the nub on this blog hopping business. They say they will only forgive me if I win something. *yes I’ve gone quite looney – I’ve been at this hopping for days – its madness I say! longest hop ever!* Though I do love your giveaway. Good idea, good show my dear, good show!
hahaha best comment for the giveaway EVER!
Good luck!
That is because tis true tis true! I’m going to require a new pair of reading glasses – I’ve strained my eyes nigh unto bursting a blood vessel or some such thing. For some crazy reason I’m determined to visit all the sites (there are 280 currently on the main linky). I could be playing Alice on the ps3 right now hacking away at bolterflies! Yes, yes I shall win the precious….I predict the luck and fates will take pity on me at least once out of 300!! *cackles madly* now back off to the hippity hop. Do come come have a chat sometime! How many have YOU visited – now that is the question!
haha I love your comments, I definitely am going to come over and have a chat! I always try to at least get to the sites who have come to mine, and also a few extra, the past few days have been sort of busy for me though so this is the first time in a long time I haven’t gotten to do that – but I’m not finished either! So we’ll see how the week continues!
I failed – I failed! I was only able to visit around 220 of the 280. The linky was taken down a few hours ago and so I couldn’t find the rest of the stops. Oh well – I’m sure my eyes will burst some other day. *I wasn’t a member of the hop just some crazy hop junkie I suppose* Now back to reading my book.
The linky was taken down already? Really? I thought it was supposed to go until midnight? But maybe I’m in the wrong time zone than she is.. hmm.. well my giveaway is open until midnight EST so! LOL Crazy hop junkies are seriously the best kind though, more fun than being a host, well I SHOULD say they make being a host TOTALLY more fun!! By the way I’m following your blog and your twitter now
And definitely, if you’ve visited everyone on the hop linky then you REALLY deserve at least ONE prize!! Hopefully fate and luck and wisdom shines it’s light upon you and blesses you with a win somewhere along the line! I’ve never been able to hop to EVERYONE on the hop, there is just no way haha I can totally understand you needing new glasses and bursting blood vessles, probably bloody stumps for fingers by now!
Well in my opinion approximately 300 stops on a hop of a week just isn’t long enough! Who could possibly manage that? some blog stop will inevitably be left out. Perhaps a limit is in order for sanity’s sake.
*I did win a few books last night from some other month long event that they announced many of the winners last night – so at least I have something to show for my insane blog stalking*
Congratz on your winnings!! And I agree, a week for 300+ stops is getting to be a bit much, it’s great they are getting so many hosts, but a week is not long enough for people wanting to enter.
when I visited I’m a reader it wasn’t there on her two posts anymore nor on others I revisited – but I found it on another blog – so perhaps its still operations. I’m hitting a few more. I’m sure some of them are probably closed and I should really just stop…smack me and tell me enough is enough!! Glad you are following! You can enter the few giveaways my sister and I will be doing. We are going to do a zombie plush giveaway…some sort of practical magic (in honor of the movie) giveaway….oh and I think even though she isn’t a book blogger she might sign up for that spooktacular one and give away some bookmarkers a gc and maybe a plush “bookworm”. We are crazy crafters. Course I’m a crazy crafter and book nut – I just don’t see how you all have the time to keep up with the blogging.
Thanks for the opportunity to win. Good luck with the surgery.
