Wrap Up + MASSIVE Giveaway || Love-A-Thon 2016

2016 loveathon

This year’s event has been such a crazy fun ride. The weekend just flew by. Chatting & connecting with the community for the last two days has been so epic. So much love was given and received and that can only mean that the Love-a-Thon was a success. In fact, with almost 300 participants, I think this year’s Love-a-Thon was a HUGE success.

A Million Thanks

I cannot even begin to explain how thankful I am to have been part of Love-a-Thon 2016. First of all, I’m so grateful for my co-hosts, Alexa of Alexa Loves Books, Cee of The Novel Hermit and Mel of The Daily Prophecy. I cannot express how honoured I am to be part of a team that advocates passion for books and this community.

Secondly, thank you to every single one of you joined. This event would not have been as fabulous without you bringing your A game, joining  the chats and flailing with us. Thank you, thank you, thank you x infinity.

Finally, thank you to our sponsors, who believed in this event enough to donate such amazing prizes. Check them out below!

  1. I HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME! I loved seeing a lot of posts and challenges. They were all soooooo adorable! And people were so excited for the Twitter chats. I think I’m still dizzy from the 2nd one! It was quite insane but super, super fun! I loved being a part of this event and I already want to do it again because it helped me through being sad and I’m just glad to have been able to enjoy this event, with the community I adore and love so much! <3

  2. The only thing I participated in was the Twitter chat as I had two exams last weekend. I still had fun, and I’m hoping that I get to be more involved next year! Thank you so much for this brilliant event!

  3. I loved seeing my Twitter feed full of fun questions, answers, and just plain LOVE! Every time I opened the app there was just this massive flood of fun tweets and it was so lovely!

  4. It was my first time to join Love-A-Thon and it was… amazing! Who knew that such a fabulous event existed. If I only knew, I would have joined the book blogging community earlier. It was really fun and it was definitely successful in spreading the love. Kudos to everyone! <3

  5. Thank you for having such a brilliant online event! I have loved Love-A-Thon, my best moments were the Twitter chats. I could take part in TWO of them since the timings were amazing! It’s been wonderful chatting with and meeting so many new bloggers. I will definitely be joining next year too! <3

  6. I’ve loved seeing the Love-a-thon posts this weekend! Thanks for hosting+ the prize pack :). I love it when voices spread positivity through the community. Hopefully I’ll be able to join in next year !

  7. I had a really great time! It was everything so much fun! But my favourite part were the twitter chats, it was so great to be talking with others, sharing things and it was a more interactive way to connect. However, I liked everything!

  8. First, thanks for hosting this giveaway & doing the whole Love-a-Thon thing in general. I really liked that the timing of it made it kind of a continuance of the Estella Society’s Book Blogger Appreciation Week. My browser bookmarks having been getting a huge workout over the last few days.

  9. I loved getting all the wonderful comments! I honestly jumped up and down when I saw them all! Made me so happy! Everyone is so nice and welcoming!

  10. I like the YA Books & Places I’ve Traveled To blog post because it’s foreign countries and books, both of which I love.

  11. Honestly, I don’t know what I would have done with you or Cee or Mel. We made such a great team when it came to putting together this year’s Love-a-Thon, and I don’t foresee that dynamic at any point in the near future so – here’s to more Love-a-Thons for us to host! <3 I'm so glad you said yes to co-hosting :D
