Howl’s Moving Library: 1,500 Follower giveaway(s)

First of all: holy forking shirtballs!!

I can’t believe I’ve made it to this kind of milestone! It’s super exciting and I am very, very happy. Thank you all for supporting this blog :D :D :D

To say thank you, I am hosting **two giveaways**. I’m new to this, so be gentle

…….

Giveaway 1: BOOKSTACK GIVEAWAY

This one is the free-for-all. 

- Anyone can enter, INTL. is ok (although shipping might make me cry) 

- You don’t have to even be following me (although you should, right? Apparently 1,500 people think I’m awesome.)

- No giveaway blogs

- 1 entry per person - so don’t spam out of anything other than sincere support!!

I will be giving away the stack of books that you see in the first picture. These books are all used-as-new. Yes, this means that they have been touched/read by another human, but as I don’t fold pages etc. they are in pristine condition. I wouldn’t giveaway crappy books as a prize. But don’t enter this giveaway if you don’t like used books!!

It’s a mix of fantasy and contemporary YA.

To enter: reblog this giveaway post with a book recommendation! That way it’s a win-win for everyone involved (except for my TBR list, which is dying a slow death in the corner).

……….

Giveaway 2: SHINY SPECIAL EDITION BOOK

As a second giveaway, I will be giving away a brand new, sprayed edges edition of A Thousand Perfect Notes by C.G. Drews (exclusive to the Illumicrate ‘Hidden Talents’ box). 

It also comes with a signed author bookplate!!

Again, INTL. shipping is all good on this one.

To enter: follow my wordpress and/or my twitter (each is worth one entry). 

Sorry guys, gotta get the self promo in somewhere! I’ll be monitoring new followers on both platforms, but you can also reply with your wordpress url or twitter handle so I can be certain to find you! If you already follow me on either of these platforms, you will be counted in the giveaway so long as you reply to this post.

I’m seeing a lot of stuff about people feeling that booklr is really empty, that no one really replies to posts or reblogs to add their opinion and we’re all really lacking interaction and discussion. 

I’m definitely in the same boat and it’s a real shame. So what can we do? Well to start with I want to make a bit of a list of people who want to be more active in the book blogging community. Then what we can all do to help is follow each other / reblog each other’s posts and add comments / ask and answer bookish questions / reply to people’s reviews and so on. A lot of us are feeling this way so hopefully by bringing us all together in one list it will make it a bit of a difference - if only because we can stop screaming into the void and actually respond to one another. 

And if we all have more interaction and discussion, that might encourage others to join in too. 

So here goes (and if I miss anyone I am super sorry, please just reblog and add yourself and anyone else you know in!).
