IT'S
OUR
BLOGOVERSARY!!!!
YUP! A year ago Jodie started this blog all on her own! She soon realized that it would be a funner experience if she invited some friends to join her. Now, there's three of us, Jodie, Megan (me) and Delilah. *the crowd cheers* We love doing this blog together and barely a day goes by that we're not in contact with each-other in some form or other. It's been a wonderful experience and we're so thankful for it.
And speaking of being thankful...
We wouldn't have had such an awesome time with this blog if it wasn't for you guys, our fabulous followers. Thanks for sticking with us during this long haul. We love hearing from you. A lot of you have become great book friends! Have some cake with us people.

Plus, what kind of celebration would it be without presents? "Presents for who?", you might ask.
Presents for you!!!
So, while we finish partying, why don't you guys check out the prezzies that we're giving away to a few spectacular followers.
Thank you for your support!

Hi Debby! I hear you on the rafflecopter. I am a total failure with those things, both putting them up and using them. Glad it is working for you and good luck! Thanks for being with us today!
DeleteLMAO!
DeleteThanks Debby.
DeleteGlad its working for you
Congratulations on the blogoversary, you should be very proud!
ReplyDeleteI like the variety of books you cover. I was also a big fan of the XXX week.
Thanks Andrea! We have tried to broaden what our horizons with our selections of books and I'm glad to know that you are enjoying them. And who isn't a fan of that XXX week? Especially the Hump Day Hotties!!! Thanks for being with us today!
DeleteThose XXX weeks would have been flops if not for my partners in crime.
DeleteThanks Andrea.
DeleteI think we need to do another XXX week soon ladies.
I LOVE your reviews! The variety is wonderful!
ReplyDeletesionedkla@gmail.com
Thanks Kassandra! All of us have different tastes and we love sharing those books with you guys. I'm so glad that you have enjoyed them! Thanks for being with us on Blogoversary!
DeleteThanks Kassandra. And K is spot on. We all have different tastes and different authors we stalk, so we can bring more variety.
DeleteThank you for commenting and I'm glad you love our reviews.
I believe everything happens for a reason. When I answered Jodie's ad last summer for a blogger I never in a million years thought I would be here on Riverina Romantics! Not only have I made two lifelong friends with Megan and Jodie but I get to share my love of reading with you all. And it has also prompted me to be that aspiring author I have always dreamed about. I want to say thanks to my girls for all the fun we have, from our love of books to our love of the XXX Hump Day Hotties, we never stop laughing! And I want to say thanks to you, the readers, for stopping in every day with your comments and love for the blog, which totally puts a smile on each of our faces! Knowing that you all enjoy what we have for you guys makes all the hard work we do totally worth it!
ReplyDeleteMuch Love Everyone!
Delilah
xoxo
BTW We have Vampire Week coming up the end of May, WOOT WOOT!
Kisses!
DeleteI agree, everything happens for a reason. And I can still remember the day I received your email about joining our team. I told Megan, "Not sure why, but I have a good feeling about this chick"
DeleteMy feelings are usually spot on :)
I love all!! But most? Probably.. The pictures :))
ReplyDeleteHappy blogoversary!!
I try *trying to look bashful*
DeleteI totally agree and for the most part we have our internet queen Megan to thank for that!
DeleteI think we found another screen licker ladies.
