I Won A Book Giveaway! :)

Yay! I won a book giveaway!

NocturnalBookReviews
After hopping around to many book giveaway sites, Nocturnal Book Reviews finally picked my name as one of its lucky 100 Followers Giveaway winners. :)
I never knew that such panic and excitement can be felt at the same time while I was browsing for books at bookdepository.com. Before long, I had a lot of tabs open in my browser for each book that is on my wishlist. Haha.

The top three on my list at that time were Tales of Beedle and the Bard, Quidditch Through the Ages, and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. At first, I chose Tales of Beedle and the Bard. But after so much careful thinking, I changed my choice of book to Fantastic Beasts because I thought that among the three, it is the most difficult to find in bookstores here in the Philippines. I have seen copies of Tales everywhere, and Quidditch was reportedly seen by my friend at a bookstore.

(Much to my surprise, the other winner is also a Harry Potter fanatic. Haha. :D)

Almost everyday, I was checking the status of my book after Karina of Nocturnal Book Reviews gave me the tracking number. Haha. It was ordered on October 3, 2011 and shipped on October 6, 2011. :) Eighteen days after, the book finally arrived at my house! :D After coming home from work and seeing the package on my bed, I immediately took pictures! I haven't even changed clothes before doing so. Hahahaha.


Once again, thank you to Karina for her generosity and congratulations to her for having 100+ followers. :)

Now, I'm hoping to win again in the following book giveaways! :) Head over to their sites if you also want to have a chance of winning. :)
