I can’t believe it’s been five years since I first pressed the publish button when my blog went live on blogspot on the 1st June 2016, I moved to WordPress the following year in 2017. I have read some incredible books in that time and I have found new favourite authors who I probably would never have come across had it not been for blogging. It’s also been amazing to be part of the blogging community and I have made many friends through this way. I really had no idea what I was doing when I first started and I had no idea that I would still be doing it five years later.
Through blogging I’ve had the privilege of meeting some of my favourite authors and I have also gained confidence to start attending book festivals and other book events.
My first post which I published was a book review for The Widow by Fiona Barton and if you would like to check out my very first review you can do so by clicking here. I must admit, it does make me cringe when I read my earlier reviews. I hope they have improved over time.
To say thank you for sticking with my blog over the last five years, I’m giving away a £15.00 Amazon gift card. To enter, all you have to do is follow my blog and leave a comment below. You can follow my blog by clicking on the follow blog button on the right hand side, if you have a WordPress account, or by email. This competition will run until 23.59 p.m. UK time, Friday, 4th June 2021. One winner will be selected as random. Good luck!
Happy 5th blogiversary! 🎂 xx
