    I didn't think that I could find a challenge I liked more than Bout of Books, but you two have done it (and in two days instead of a week!). I love everyone that I've found through the Love-a-Thon, book bloggers seriously are the BEST!

    Although I didn't do the mini-challenges since I hadn't realized Love-A-Thon was this weekend and I wasn't up to typing a post last minute, I had the best time talking to everybody on Twitter. I am just incredibly giddy.

    Alexa, Katelyn, <3<3<3<3 BIG HUGS.
