Armchair BEA: Wrap Up

Whew, what a week! It was crazy fun. Peeps met new peeps. There were Twitter parties. There were giveaways - galore! Prizes were won :).  I won a few giveaways through Armchair BEA, and I have to give a shout out to the fantastic sponsors, authors, publishers, and book bloggers that made such an incredible list of giveaways. I plan to do a post about what I won once I get them in the mail - can't wait to show you!

Here's a recap of my ABEA posts from the week:

• Armchair BEA - I'm Participating!
• Who Am I? An Introduction
• Giveaway Day 
• My "Best of 2011" in YA
• Interview with Jennifer from Books, Personally
• Jennifer at The Literate Housewife Interviews Me
• Nurturing Book Blogging Relationships
• Blogging about Blogging (social networking)

Seriously, this was so much fun! Thank you to all the fabulous peeps at Armchair BEA! I definitely plan to participate next year! That is, if I'm not in NYC at BEA and BBC :). I do have to say, I was really surprised by how exhausting this was - lots of posts, and lots of blog hopping... it didn't help that I was really sick this week. I met so many great people and I'm really glad I participated (I almost didn't because I thought I was too new). I learned so much, and my favorite parts of ABEA were the interviews, twitter parties, and the giveaways of course :).

I have to say that I'm kind of looking forward to getting back to normal next week. I plan to get some book reviews up now that I can re-focus on those... I'm so behind!
