One year blogoversary!

Today is the first anniversary of my blog. Yeah, I made it! I didn’t know if I would manage to keep doing it when I started, but I did, so I am a little bit proud of myself.

An anniversary speech usually has some numbers in it, so here are my blog numbers for the past year:

I have 11 followers, and I am very proud to have gathered you all. Thank you for reading my blog, and for commenting on my posts.
I have blogged a grand total of 308 times.
I have made 238 book reviews.
I have read more than that, as I didn’t always made a review when rereading a book, or reading a book in Dutch, my first language.
I have not kept a list right from the start, but I have bought 232 books since June 2010.

Of course, this calls for a little bookparty, so I have decided to do a book give away. Now I cannot possibly part with one of my own books, so the lucky winner will be able to choose one paperback from the Bookdepository. You can choose any book you want of the books I have written a review about, and if it is still available at the Bookdepository.

The rules: you have to be a follower, and you have to comment on this post.
Please leave your email address in the comment, if I don’t already have it.

I will draw the lucky follower/commenter out of a hat Sunday April 17.

So, let’s hope the coming year will be just as good, with many great new books to read and to review.
