Personal Planner Mini Review & Giveaway

Hi Everyone!

Today I have something a little bit different for you all! The lovely people from Personal Planner contacted me wanting to know if I would be interested in receiving a planner and also doing a giveaway. Now I know that this is not a book review and giveaway BUT at the time I received this email I was honestly thinking that I needed a new planner to schedule my blog posts and keep organised. With that in mind I agreed to review and giveaway a Personal Planner!

Make sure you see below the bump for more information!

Halloween Spooktacular Kickoff and Giveaway!

Hi everyone!!

Today marks the first day of Halloween Spooktacular! With Halloween just around the corner I wanted to create an event for the last two weeks of October. Australia doesn't get much into the Halloween spirit and I just felt like being festive this year. I've always been jealous of how into it America seems to get, and please don't burst my bubble and say that it's not like it is in TV and Movies because I don't want to believe it!!

See below the bump for an International Giveaway!

Upcoming Giveaway!

So you may (or may not) have noticed that I have nearly hit 100 followers! *Dances in celebration, pulling all of my lovely followers in to join the party!*

So now it has come time for a 100 follower giveaway! I'm still gobsmacked that I have 100 people that follow my blog! I have to say that the book blogging world is one of the greatest to be a part of. It has become its own community of people who love to read. So Thank you, thank you, thank you, to all of my lovely followers! (I really can't thank you enough! But thank you once more for good measure)

So I rallied my creative friend Bec to help me come up with a blog name, bouncing ideas back and forth while I googled to see if they already existed (and most of them did). So finally after I thought all hope was lost for a blog name, (when even your creative friend is stumped you know things aren't looking good) I came up with Following The Reader. Of course in times of need my mind turns to Disney movies right? Peter Pan was one of my favourite childhood movies and I will always always remember the song 'Following The Leader.' (Sometimes in peoples Meme Linky's I find myself typing Amy @ Following The Leader. woops!)

So what books would you like to see up for grabs in the giveaway? I would love to hear your thoughts. The books will be coming from The Book Depository straight to you, so have a looksie and let me know what you would like to see available as options for the giveaway! I will pick a few books to choose from, so there is more variety. The giveaway will be open internationally (if The Book Depository ships to your country). I can't say when for sure it will be open, but follow me on twitter @AmyTheReader for updates and of course there will be an official giveaway post!

Enough rambling from me! Don't forget to comment with what books you would like to see!

Happy reading and stay tuned!
- Amy
