My 1 Year Blogoversary!

It was my 1 year blogoversary on Saturday, June 16th!  YAY! I can’t believe I made it a whole year blogging and I still love it!

I want to throw you guys the biggest party ever so I pulled out all the stops.

I got Gandalf for some killer fireworks…

….and Bilbio to give you a confusing and possibly insulting speech.

I got the biggest cake I could find that looks like a book.

There will be no ice cream at this party.  I hate ice cream.  You must bring your own and then not eat it in front of me.

But there will be dancing!!

The Scavenger Hunt

There will be a 2nd winner of a secret bonus prize hidden somewhere on my blog.  Follow the clue below to one of my blog posts then fill out the scavenger hunt option on the Rafflecopter with the secret message you found on that post to be entered in this giveaway. (If you have questions, just email me at booksatruestory@gmail.com).  Trust me when I say you want this prize! It still holds the record for being my most popular giveaway the last time I gave it away. ;)

Clue:

My title has two words and they both rhyme.  My life started off as a book not a movie though most people think it’s the other way around.  If you are stumped, Force yourself to think of the answer. It starts with an “S” ……
