The Getting To Know You Giveaway Hop is hosted by the brilliant ladies Kat and Steph at Cuddlebuggery to let people know a little about yourself and who you are.
Well, let’s see. Hi, my name is Kelly. -insert crazy waving here- I am a Pokemon obsessed, Criminal Minds obsessed, somewhat awkward, compulsive book buyer with tons of books but no place to put them. Therefore I resort to desk stacking and soon floor stacking.
Some of my favorite books ever include Since You’ve Been Gone by Morgan Matson (friendships! Frank freakin’ Porter! Lists! And Frank freakin’ Porter!), Split Second by Kasie West (Trevor! Connor! Friendships! Swoons!), and Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins (Paris! St. Clair! Friendship!) in no particular order.
As for this giveaway, what can you win? Well, even though I haven’t read this book yet, I just know that I can relate to the main character of the book –
That’s right, I’m giving away a copy of Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. Not only am I giving away a copy of Fangirl, it is also the special edition of it. And not only am I giving away the limited edition of Fangirl, but I can also get it signed AND personalized just for you since Rainbow Rowell is coming to my city a few days after this event ends.
Excited? I know I am.
Terms & Conditions:
- This contest is open INTERNATIONALLY.
- You must be 18 years or older, or have parents’ permission to enter.

I’m out of book space too, I was floor-stacking but then I cleared out the bottom shelf of my wardrobe.

A fact about me is that I like to put vegemite on sweet things like pikelets, pancakes, and crumpets
i can’t stand riding merry go rounds or even a ferries wheel…the circular movement and up and down motion even in slow motion gives me muscle tension :( and also not fond of heights! ugh! carnival rides and such are no fun for me although i really really want to brave it but i just can’t relax.
Until I read twilight, I only read adult mystery books I couldn’t have told you what ya was.

A fact about me is that apart from being a book hoarder I also love hoarding jewelry. If it’s pretty and shiny I buy it. I kid you not I seriously have way too many bracelet’s and necklaces that I don’t even wear its like a weird addiction I have. Whenever I go to a store and there’s jewelry I’m on it like white on rice.
I love to read, I have never ever cut the grass….hmm….. I have an obsession with David Gandy!
I met my husband because of Harry Potter! Also, I’m an English major who now works for the USPS.

This is a great giveaway. Thanks!
I’m 34 and often feel really old when I go into a bookstore and head to the ya section. My 14 year old son agrees I think. Sigh. But he sure doesn’t mind wondering off with MY books. :)
Hi Kelly. Here are a few facts about me. My name is Hillary. I love Pokémon too, but I miss the old episodes from when it first started. May was also my favorite female character. I love Pikachu and Charmander the most. I like singing. I hate dancing since I suck lol. I used to care about how I dressed to school way back when in high school, but now I really don’t care if I get out of the house in simple clothes or sweat pants and a t-shirt. If I don’t have to wear heels I won’t. I wear makeup simply unless I’m going back to work next year where I did this year and saw cute guys everywhere. Then I do wear a little more. I love horror movies the most, but none have been that scary lately. I still watch Disney channel even though I’m almost twenty-one. I don’t drive yet, but I know how to. I just don’t have a license. I also got my first job this year which is so embarrassing. I hate hot days and prefer rainy-cloudy weather. And I think that’s it. Oh, I’m most likely not going to live in Southern California for the rest of my life.
I loved the book fangirl and would Love to own it!
Fun facts; This year is the first year in which I’ve gotten ‘serious’ about reading. . As in the past few years before I would read about 1-2 books a month. Now it’s about 6 if i’m ”good’. I have started thinking creating a blog of my own – but have since decided I would not rock at it, like you and a few others I follow do. I Love Pretty Little Liars! I live in Oregon. And want to become a photographer. I can not drive(i’m 17) , and I hate the fact there is no good book store close by.
Hello, I’m from Philippines and I love to read and to travel :)
A random fact about me is I just got my learners permit the other day and I am going driving for the very first time today!
