Two Chicks on Books Turns 5! And A Giveaway!


Wow! I can't believe it's been 5 years! It seems like these past 5 years have flown by. I still remember my very first post, a review of Angelfire by Courtney Allison Moulton (which was a horribly written review lol). I remember the first people I met from blogging and some of them have become my best friends! Yes Rachel, Mindy, Nancy, Bella, Damaris,  Jess, Bonnie, Cameron, Bridget, Sophie, Katie, Jenny, Danny, Amber, Julie, Brittany, Rachel, Crystal, and Jen I'm talking to you! Love you ladies :D

I also remember the awesome authors and publishers who have been a blessing to work with I love you all! If I mentioned everyone this would be quite a long post. But I did want to send a special shout out to Veronica Rossi, Talia Vance, Katherine Longshore, Cory Jackson, AG Howard, Sara B Larson, Claudia Gray, Martina Boone, Maria V. Snyder, Cat Winters, Evelyn Skye, Sabaa Tahir, Renee Ahdieh, and Joelle Charbonneau you have been some of my favorite authors and have become amazing friends! To the local ladies we must meet for Margaritas soon!

So what has changed in 5 years? It doesn't seem like much but it's actually been a lot. To start I had a partner... but after the first year it wasn't working out so we parted ways. I couldn't lose the blog name I had come to love so I'm still Two Chicks on Books. I've also gone through 3 blog designs and this current one is by far my favorite but I may be looking for a new design next year I've had this one for 3 years lol! When I first started blogging I had always dreamed of working in publishing and 4 years ago that dream started to come true. I became an intern at Entangled Publishing and 4 years later I'm a Publicity and Marketing Director for Month9Books! I love my company so much! Thanks Georgia McBride for having faith in me and giving me a job that I love doing everyday! I also started a blog tour company with one of my besties Rachel from Fiktshun and Rockstar Book Tours has been a blast! I can't believe we've been doing this for 3 years now!

So ok I'm not one for long winded posts but what I really wanted to say is thank you!!! All of you who have been a part of this 5 year journey I am so blessed to have each of you in my life and I'm looking forward to more years of blogging to come and to meeting more awesome people! And to celebrate turning 5 I'm giving away stuff because whats's better than giveaways?!?!
