Happy blogoversary to me! On May 8th, The Hollow Cupboards turned two years old, but the idea of it had been forming in my brain long before that! I can hardly believe that some of you have stuck with me this long and continue to enjoy the content! To celebrate, I've planned a month-long event where I'll be posting a new giveaway every week! I'm planning for this celebration to last until my 21st birthday on June 16th, so it's a double celebration!
I don't want to take up too much time, but I did want to thank my readers, authors, blogging friends and publishers for constantly investing in my opinion. I never knew how important blogging would be to me and I surely didn't think that it would become a regular thing when I started, but now I can't see myself without it!
Here's a list of what you can expect to see throughout the celebration:
May 14th- Kickoff & Giveaway #1
May 21st- Why I Love eBooks & Giveaway #2
May 28th- Being Thankful & Giveaway #3
June 4th- Guessing Game Giveaway #4
June 11th- Pick & Choose Giveaway #5
June 16th- 21st Birthday, Wrap-Up and Giveaway #6
Each giveaway will last two weeks. I'm also going to try and rotate so every other giveaway will be INT so my friends who don't live in the US or Canada won't miss out on the fun!
So I suppose you're wondering what I have in store for the first giveaway?
Well, you guys know how I love contemporary, so I've piled up 6 ARCs to give to one winner! This giveaway will be open to US/CAN, but don't fret...that means that the next giveaway will be INT!

Ooh, I'm planning on reading Dare You To soon! Pushing the Limits was beautifully written.
DeleteHappy 2nd blogoversary! :) It's hard to choose a favorite since contemporary is my #1 genre, but Pushing the Limits, Amy & Roger's Epic Detour, The Fault in Our Stars, and My Life Next Door all come to mind first.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance to win! ;)
I know how you feel, contemporary is the best! I'll bump Amy & Roger's Epic Detour higher on my TBR list! I just loved Morgan Matson's "Second Chance Summer".

DeleteHappy blogoversary! I love the I Hunt Killers series and The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight!
ReplyDeleteThe Statistical Probability was SO great! I loved how easy to read it was. :)
DeleteHappy Blog Birthday! I think my favorite contemporary read right now is How My Summer Went Up In Flames!
ReplyDeleteAhh, I am DYING to read that one! Sounds like just the book for me! :D
DeleteAhh, favorite contemporary read... that's way too hard. I'll say off the top of my head Anna and the French Kiss, If I Stay, My Life Next Door.. I'm sure there are others, but those are the three that come to mind.
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with Stephanie Perkins! I didn't love If I Stay as much, but My Life Next Door was brilliant as well!
DeleteWell,for my favorite I usually say Sarah Dessen, but I am going to pick something new and say Amy and Roger's Epic Detour by Morgan Matson.
ReplyDeleteEASY, ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS, PUSHING THE LIMITS, DARE YOU TO, and THE FAULT IN OUR STARS. <3
ReplyDeleteDefinitely My Life Next Door - LOVED IT!
ReplyDeletePushing the limits was pretty amazing. (:
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway these are all books I am dying to read!!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite contemp is definitely The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen, I love ones that make me cry.
I recently read Five Summers by Una LaMarche and it surprised me with how much I enjoyed it! It was a really great story about friendship, which was a nice break from all the romance.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary Chey!! :D
ReplyDeleteMy favorite contemporary read is any of Stephanie Perkins books.
ReplyDeleteThe Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic collection of books. Thank you for the opportunity. Contemporary reads are my favorite. My favorite contemporary is Freefall by Mindi Scott.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary!! I love anything and everything by Sarah Dessen. I don't think I've actually read any contemporaries this year, so far. Now that I think about it, how weird! There's a bunch on my TBR list that I want to get to hopefully soon.
ReplyDeleteI have a ton, but I would have to say that My Life Next Door was amazing :) Thanks for the great giveaway!
