It's been THREE*** years ago today that I wrote my first post. It received 3 comments - one from my daughter, one from my niece and one from JOY from Thoughts of Joy. Since that time . . . Well, you all know because the same thing has happened to you.
I started writing a blog as a means of recording the books I'd read. Then people commented and I discovered there were other book blogs. And as time went on I met people and developed wonderful e-friendships. You all shared so many recommendations for good books that my TBR mountain grew and toppled over many times. That's okay because I read fewer duds and a lot more really good books.
I want to celebrate and say THANKS for all that you've shared with me by holding a drawing for a free book. I chose a book that was published on Feb 5 - just barely! And, I know this is corny, but because OUR PATHS HAVE CROSSED,
the book is
Crossed by Nicole Galland
Leave me a comment and you could win!
I will draw a name on Feb 29
I finished 2 books I was reading, but read the first chapter of Crossed last night before going to bed. It was very engaging. I think we're really going to enjoy this tale of the Fourth Crusade.
***Okay, so I CAN'T add. My daughter pointed out to me that I've only been blogging for 2 years. It's those big numbers - they've always been a problem for me!

Congratulations on three years of blogging! Your mentioning hitting the three year mark reminded me that I just hit the three mark in my current position at work. Wow. It feels like a long time and yet it also feels like it flew by.
Happy Anniversary!
Congratulations on three years of an exceptional blog. It is always fresh and classy. You lay it out and decorate it wonderfully. As for your book reviews, they're awesome. You have great taste in fiction and every time I take one of your suggestions, I'm not disappointed. I also seem to get more out of a book you've reviewed. I'd have never fully appreciated Poisonwood Bible, for instance, without your help.
Thanks and best wishes on your next three years.
I was so happy when I found your blog about 6 months ago. The problem is, I feel I can never catch up with all the good books you recommend!
Happy blogging anniversary!
Happy anniversary! 3 years! I always enjoy stopping by and seeing what you are reading. Great reviews and lots of additions to my TBR pile. Thanks for being here and we'll look forward to reading with you for a long time to come I hope!
Congratulations on your third blog birthday! I wish you lots of good reads and blogging fun for many years to come!
Congratulations! I'm a longtime lurker, and I enjoy your blog very, very much!

Happy Blogiversary! I always enjoy reading what you have to say! Here's to three more years...at least!

Happy Blogiversary! The book sounds interesting. Thanks for doing this.
Wow, three years! Congratulations!!

Happy Blogiversary! I just checked out one of Nicole Galland's other books out from the library. Hope you enjoy this one!
Congrats! I found your blog about a year ago, and have been enjoying your wonderful reviews ever since. Thanks for all the great recommendations!
Congrats on the anniversary! I really enjoy reading your blog.
I'm just here to wish you a HaPpY BlOg BiRtHdAy, BoOkLoGgEd!!! Three years...woo hoo! I look forward to visiting this haven of book talk for the next three as well. :)
WOW, three years! You put us all to shame!
Congrats! I'm a fairly new subscriber to your blog, and just this year started a blog to keep track of the books I've read as well.
Happy blogaversary! I think I've been reading you for two of those three years, and I've loved reading your reviews. You've come a long way from three comments! :)
Congratulations! Three years is a long time in the blogosphere. Crossed sounds wonderful - I'd love to win it.
Happy Blog Birthday! Your reviews are always fun to read and I look forward to reading them for many more years to come :)
Congratulations on your blogiversary! 3 years is quite a long time! I've only been reading your blog for a couple of months, but so far, it's been a great experience (if hard on the book wish list). Here's to another great year! =)
Congrats on your blogiversary! I'd love to be entered for a chance to win!
Congratulations! Three years is quite an accomplishment. I thoroughly enjoy your blog and have enlarged my TBR list based on your recommendations. Keep up the good work.
Congratulations on 3 years of blogging! I so enjoy your blog and hearing about what you are reading. Many happy returns of the day...and I wish you many more years of blogging!
Happy Blogiversary. Three Years what a wonderful accomplishment. I do enjoy reading your blog. I have come across more books to add to my ever growing TBR list thanks to you.
I was just getting ready to comment on the THREE years when I saw your note at the bottom of the post! I didn't even know about blogs three years ago. ;) Congrats on TWO years of blogging. Yours is one of my favorites that I check in on every day. I've gotten so many good ideas from your reviews and I loved reading about your travels this past summer. Here's to many, many more years of books, vacations, and friendship.
I don't want to enter the drawing, but I do want to wish you a very happy blogiversary :-)
LOL! Well whether it's been three years or two years, I still wish you a happy blog anniversary! :)
Three years? You are my hero!
Congrats!!! What a wonderful thing!! I can't believe you've been up and running for two years, I can't wait for one! Happy bloggy-versary
LOL! Two years is great, also. Sounds like something I'd do. Tonight, I missed photographing an owl because I forgot to put the memory card back in my camera. Much, much worse than counting wrong.
Has it been two years? I blame my blossoming book fetish on you, you know. Before I was content to go to library and settle for whatever they had. No more! Anyway, congratulations.
Congratulations on two wonderful years of blogging!
I just subscribed to your blog and have been poking around. Love it! Congrats on your two years!
Happy blog day! two years is awesome, and our paths have really crossed too! Your classic challenge introduced me to blogger and book blogging, so thank you, I've had a great year (I missed my one year anniversary, oops) and here's to many more *raises a toast*
Huge congratulations on the blog bday!
I've been slow about sending out your prize Violet on the Runway, but just got it off today so you should get it soon! Sorry for the delay. :)
I don't need any books right now, but I'm so glad for your presence here in the blog world! Happy Anniversary!
Happy blogging birthday!! :) I have been enjoying the blog!!
happy blogiversary, booklogged! here's to many more books read and reviewed! :)
Happy happy blogging birthday. And WOW! 40 comments. That's awesome. I went for days with 0 comments and wondered if anyone read my blogs and now I'm up to about 5 or 6 comments daily. How do you do it? You must have pretty awesome book reviews and posts. I'll be visiting more often.
Well, Congrats!! (Even 2 years is a huge accomplishment!) I've come to realize blogging is actually work sometimes! Now that I'm working so many hours, it's harder and harder to post. And I miss it when I do!!
Keep it up though. I love your blog!!
Greetings! Congratulations on three years of blogging. What a mile stone. I wish you many more years of blogging. Please enter me in your drawing. I appreciate it! Thanks,Cindi

Thanks for visiting my blog and sharing with me how you do this so well.
Congratulations! What fun! Thanks for the giveaway. Looks like an interesting book!
Congratulations on 2 years of blogging; and on getting 45 comments. I'd love to be entered in the drawing for Crossed. I haven't a clue what it's about but the cover is lovely.
Congratulations for two years blogging. May you have many more. And more book giveaways too. LOL!
Do consider me for crossed, if it is not too much of trouble!
Count me in on this one!
And congratulations on two years! I'm still counting the months. *grin*
