1,000,000 Pageviews Giveaway!

Happy Wednesday! In addition to my usual Waiting on Wednesday post (below this one!), I've got a thing to celebrate! 

I've been remiss! An entire month has passed since I announced that my blog passed 1,000,000 pageviews. Yup, you read that correctly. 1,000,000 pageviews! ONE MILLION!

Well, this happened sometime today. 😭😭😭 Thank you all. Thank you thank you thank you. The Eater of Books! would be NOTHING without you. 💜💜💜 pic.twitter.com/0NVODlDliG

I wanted to do something special for the milestone, and I do apologize for posting about it so late. The Eater of Books! is now well past 1,000,000 pageviews so, ah, I'm sorry!

Thank you all so much for your support! These 1,000,000+ pageviews couldn't have all come from me! Some days I wonder though - maybe it's just me visiting my own blog? But no, it's all you guys. Thank you for everything! Especially these last few months; I'm still incredibly behind and I will definitely catch up soon (maybe by the end of spring break, which is this week?). A downside of publishing blog posts every day (and sometimes more than twice a day) is that I'm always going to have posts to catch up on (in terms of comments). But I'd be lying if I said that I didn't love it. I appreciate every pageviews, every comment, every visitor. Hugs to all of you - you make my life brighter every day. =)

And I promised a giveaway! Well, I have three of them. You ready?

(Note: if you win this prize pack, and indicate that you like adult romance, I may be able to sneak some adult romance novels in your box! It looks like there will be room in the box when I ship the books. I'm specifying extra adult books because they are small in length/width. So, extra books for those who like adult in addition to YA! Just saying!)

The Big News (Lots of News, Really) Celebration and GIVEAWAY!

Well... this is awkward. This post has been a long time coming. I knew about the BIG big news since last Thursday.

But there are a lot of things I want to celebrate. 

You see, blogging isn't exactly easy, when you have ten billion things going on. I know some people have more things going on than I do, but what I have going on is enough for me. I recently started going to Johns Hopkins University, as an undergraduate freshman. I'm double-majoring in environmental engineering and Spanish (language).

So anyway. What am I celebrating?

- 2500+ blog followers
- 800 GFC followers: shout-out to @LostInEA for being the 800th one!
- Almost 150+ reviews
- Less than 100 days until my blogoversary
- 500+ published blog posts
- Auto-approval from Harper on Edelweiss
- THE BIG ONE: 100,000 unique pageviews

DID YOU READ THAT?

100,000 UNIQUE PAGEVIEWS!

In less than ten months of blogging!

WOOHOO! Thank you all for your support and love - I so so so appreciate it! It's because of you all that I am where I am, in less than a year of blogging :D

So, let's celebrate. Win a book of your choice, up to $15, from the Book Depository! So, it's an internationally open contest. Please read the giveaway rules on the Giveaways page.

Hey everyone!

I've reached 1000 followers on Twitter! Join me tonight, 08/08, 9 p.m., EST, on Twitter, to celebrate! Check out the deets:

A fun chat! Guest authors! Tons of prize! Alyssa's shenanigans! Hope to see you all tonight!

CHECK THIS OUT! An Amazing Blogging First is Achieved!

GUESS WHAT I GOT TODAY!!!!

Ready, ready, ready?!

AHHHHH!!!!!!!!! 

FEAST YOUR EYES!!!!

An ARC of Alienated by Melissa Anders

An ARC of These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner

MY FIRST EVER ARC STRAIGHT FROM THE PUBLISHER!!!! MY FIRST TWO ARCS!!!

(PRINT ARCs, guys. Not eARCs. I've been getting eARCs since my first month of blogging).

And if any of you know anything about Disney Hyperion, it's that they don't send ARCs to just anyone. I read an article where Disney Hyperion has basically stopped accepting most review requests, especially to new requesters (like me). You experienced bloggers, with like, two years under your belt, have better success with them.

Well. Clearly they accepted mine! I submitted one request for these two on FRIDAY, May 3rd. That was so fast!

And guys. Get this.

I'VE ONLY BEEN BLOGGING FOR FOUR MONTHS!!! 

So, thank you ALL, for following me, and viewing my blog, and commenting on my posts. Without you lovely followers and visitors, I wouldn't have gotten my first ARC, and my second ARC, straight from the publisher. From one of the most selective publishers!

I actually passed a ton of blogging firsts in the passed four months, so that means something big is going to happen very, very soon. *Cough* giveaway *cough*

AHHHHH!!!!! :D
