Hi my name is Kristen & I'm a bookaholic... + Giveaway?

Hey everyone! *waves* Kristen from Seeing Night Reviews here to update you on why I haven't been as fast as reading as I usually am...

I have been a very busy girl, I've officially moved into my new place completely and my poor husband has to deal with my book addiction. I realized as I was sorting them all making sure they all were in their right series that I'm actually missing a lot of books. This is what happens when you loan out books and that person disappears, so guess what I did? I bought replacements lol.

I thought I'd post some picture of what my house looked like while I was sorting through everything, funny thing is there are still books on the book case that I didn't have on the floor yet.

I also have a lot of series I started and haven't finished, so many books are major loners and need a friend. Meaning I have a lot to catch up on. So yes... I would post this for what my bookshelves look like but uhh well you can see I'm a bit OCD trying to get them all in order.

GIVEAWAY??? 

So here is the cool part for all my blog followers, I got some books that I would love to giveaway and make room for and really want to give them a good home. My books are only touched by me and I'm OCD about them so no creases or tears are anywhere on them. If anyone is interested post telling me you are and all post up a list that Ill be giving away over the next week to my lucky followers.

SO WHO WANTS FREE AWESOME BOOKS!???

    I'm that way with my books too! I get annoyed when I get one that's been bent up during shipping, lol.
    I'd love to help your books find a new & happy home... though my living room would probably look even worse!!! : )

    Wow! That's a ton of books. I am OCD with my books as well. If I receive a sign copy and haven't read the book I will actually borrow a copy from the library or buy an ebook just because I don't want to crack open the signed book :)LOL

    BTW, Don't you hate moving? I do.

    I would be interested in the giveaway.

    Thanks!

    As a book hoarder, I am always interested in free books. :)

    Cleaning off bookshelves is always fun. Stacks of books that randomly fall over...I'm OCD about how my books are organized, too, so I end up putting more time and energy into reorganizing shelves than is really necessary. :)

    I love clearing my bookshelves, although it's definitely a daunting task! Good luck to you!

    I LOVE free books! Is this a US, US/CANADA or International giveaway? I'm Canadian but will still love to get the chance to win what looks like a great lot of amazing books!

    WOW! THAT'S A LOT OF BOOKS! I love it! Wish I had that many books. *Looks at my bookshelf* Oh, let's see... how many books are there... 1, 2, 3, 4 ...... 10. EXACTLY 10. I'm not even kidding. Gosh, I'm really behind in the book world. Just recently discovered goodreads, book depository and all the amazing books that exists in this world. I also recently discovered how much I LOVE to read. So now I have like 400 books on my TBR list. I SHALL READ THEM ALL!

    So yeah, I'll gladly give some of your books a home. I'm also OCD about books so I can assure you they will be treated very good.

    Of course I'm interested! I'm a book addict too, and I love a fellow OCD reader who doesn't crease their books. I've received books from PaperBackSwap that are just terrible, I'm not sure what that person did to that poor defenseless book, LOL. I'll be checking back to check out your giveaways.

    That's a whole load of books! I think I'm jealous! I just recently organized my bookshelf and I'm missing books too. So I see we are on the same boat with that. :) But I am definitely interested!

    My apartment looked similar when I moved in... and I've collected more books since. I have them everywhere. People are always floored when they first come to my place and are overwhelmed by the books. lol

    Dang! That looks like my book collection! The first step to getting help is admitting you have a problem, they say, but it's never helped me! I have a problem, but I still add new books every week! And I would be happy to take a few books off your hands to add to my always growing family! Thanks for the giveaway:)
