There has been a lot of shenans and hullabaloo this week. Our anniversary evening was a total cluster and it was 100% my fault…. and of course I also blame Target, and its black hole of ALL THE THINGS. I walk in there and poof 3 hours just disappears from my life every single time.
And then there was more apartment drama. The full story on part 2: the 2013 2-bedroom apartment saga – coming soon, I promise.
All of that to say: I had plans for writing, but writing there was none. And wow, here it is Friday. What the hell? How did that happen? My life is in fast forward and I haven’t even put pants on yet.
But that is beside the point, today I am announcing the 5 winners of the mystery book giveaways!! YAY! And can I just say…. reading the stories in the comments was amazing. Amazing. Amazing. You guys are super super interesting, super funny, thoughtful, the whole thing was awesome. I’ll definitely doing a giveaway like this again. Plus yay books. Yay books indeed. Without further ado! The Winners!

I’ll be contacting all of you this weekend and getting your book bundles together and sent off next week! <3 Thank you for playing!
Sweet! Super excited to see what books you send!! π
Yay!! So excited π
Oh yaay! So happy! And I am curious about the apartment… hope one of them worked out?
Horray horray!! I love books! I just finished the first of a series of three 1000 pagers yesterday, and everything else I have to read are also series, so this is awesome!! Thank you so much Lauren, you’re so freakin’ awesome π
Oh my goodness, so exciting! I can’t wait to get some sweet new reads and winning a drawing from telling a story was one of the most fun things ever! Yay! π
hahahaaaa this = “My life is in fast forward and I havenβt even put pants on yet.”
My books arrived! My books arrived! I had a pretty dang stressful day (including a tearful silent melt down as my mom described the specifics of a conference she went to about working with people who have had a stroke and ohmygoodnessIdon’twanttohaveastroke also notreallycryingaboutthatjustsostressedout) and the box of books waiting on my doorstep was totally a much needed highlight to a pretty not so great day. I have only read one of them (Bel Canto) and that book happens to be one of my favorites OF ALL TIME so I’m so pumped to own a copy so that I can lend it out to the people I recommend it to and maybe even re-read it myself (not a big re-reader, but there are exceptions). The other two are brand new to me! They are top of my list for once I get through my big comprehensive exams (T minus two weeks!) and I am so so glad to have hand-picked new novels on my shelf. They make me do a little happy dance every time I walk by. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
