Books 2011 & Giveaway [CLOSED]

2011 was a good year for books and reading for me. I attempted the 50 Book Challenge (and will be doing so again this year), and although I didn’t reach the target of 50 books, I still managed to read 40 and that is a pretty impressive number in my opinion. The books I read in 2011 were:

There were some definite stand-out books this year, and I thought it might be a nice idea to have a little giveaway with some of my favourite books of 2011. I will be giving away one copy each of We Need To Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, Cloudstreet by Tim Winton and The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. To enter simply leave a comment letting me know which of these four books you’d like to win (and be sure to include your email address so that I can contact you if you are the winner). The giveaway is open internationally and winners will be drawn on February 1, 2012. Good luck!

Empties/Haul – 6 Out & 3 In

Out: Givenchy Photo Perfexion Foundation in Perfect Ivory, Philosophy The Supernatural Blotting Papers, Kosmea Certified Organic Rose Hip Oil, Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Perfume, Glasshouse Galapagos Soap, Bath + Body Works Exotic Coconut Body Lotion.

In: Perfumeria Gal Lip Balm in Red Currant, Inglot Lipstick in #106 & Inglot Lipstick in #105.

It is now 2012 and I am determined to complete a Project 50 Pan this year. I will be limiting my purchasing of new products and attempting to only buy products that are replacing holy grail items when they run out. I’m not sure how successful I will be, but I feel like this is something that I’m really determined to do, so here’s hoping I do well!
