~Spring Into Rummer Read-a-Thon~

This post is to announce to the world that I'm participating in the Spring into Summer read-a-thon hosted by Enna Isilee of Squeaky Books!

This read-a-thon is going to be so great! It's two days where you try do NOTHING but read. It's a great chance to get rid of some of those books that have been sitting on your TBR pile forever.

But that's not all! There will also be awesome mini-challenges and a TON of giveaways! In fact, just for signing up you are entered to win a $25 gift card to Amazon! SO GO SIGN UP! And if you say that HIRA HASNAIN sent you, you'll get 5 extra entries to win that gift card! CLICK HERE to enter to win, and know all there is to know about the read-a-thon.

Here's my goal:

I plan to participate on: both days, the ENTIRE weekend, really.
I plan to read:  At least 830 pages
I hope to read: "Midwife's Confession" by Diane Chamberlain and "Very Bad Men" by Harry Dolan, and possibly finish "The Sweetness of Tears" by Nafisa Haji

Well, have you signed up yet? DO IT NOW!

~Winner Announcement - The "Happy Birthday Mr. Enamored Soul" Giveaway~

First of all, I want to apologize to everyone for not making the announcement for the winner yesterday. Unfortunately, due to some unforeseen (family emergency) circumstances, I had to travel 400 miles up North to San Francisco, and that delayed my picking and announcing a winner.

Before I announce the winner, I want to THANK every one who decided to participate in this giveaway/contest. I thank you wholeheartedly for the lovely and kind words/wishes that you left for Mr. Enamored Soul - they mean the world to both him and me. I honestly wish that I could get each one of you a copy of the book that you'd wanted - but since I haven't struck gold in my backyard yet, I have to pick a winner.

And the winner of The "Happy Birthday Mr. Enamored Soul" Giveaway is:

***drumroll***

Miranda @ My Eclectic Bookshelf who picked "This Lullaby" by Sarah Dessen.

I am already planning another giveaway, and I think I'll be hosting it either this coming week, or the week after that, so stay tuned. Again, I am so sorry for those who did not win, happy for the winner who did, and infinitely gracious for your participation as well as for your support. THANK YOU!!! :)
