Happy Blogiversary!

How time flies! Melody's Reading Corner has turned 3 today! Really, where has the time gone?

When I first started this blog, I have no idea what to write except briefly jotting down my thoughts and a summary of the books I read. I took a look at my first post and wanted to cringe at the things I wrote back then; they seemed so simple. And as the time goes by, a few readers posted their comments on my blog and I remember I was so thrilled and excited because I did not expect anyone would want to read my blog, let alone leaving a comment!

As I began to explore around, I realised that there are in fact a lot of booklovers around the world and that a bookblogging community actually existed! So what did I do then? I joined in the fun, of course! I visit more bookblogs, made friends and not to mention adding books to my TBR pile along the way. Before this, I used to read a few certain genres but my reading habits/preference have changed after reading all the great recommendations by fellow bookbloggers! And I love it! Today, I read about anything except genres like sci-fi (unless I have came across a terrific one!), non-fiction, poetry and memoirs.

Anyway, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for reading and leaving your comments on my blog. I really appreciate them all! I want to say I am honoured to know you and I am so happy we are friends, even though if we have not had the chance to meet in person!

Now a little celebration for my blogiversary... you wouldn't think I would end this post simply with my ramblings, would you? For this occasion, I will buy a lucky reader a book of her/his choice. To participate in this draw, simply tell me which is your favourite book so far this year. I will announce the winner on July 10 (Friday). Good luck!
