BlogFest 2010

The four of us here at Girls Just Reading are excited to be participating in this year's Blogfest hosted by Journey of Books. It is the first time we've taken part in something like involving a variety of blogs.

What is Blogfest you might ask? 

BlogFest is a massive carnival of giveaways with a great collection of participating blogs. Each blog has a giveaway and the idea is to hop from blog to blog, entering all the giveaways your little heart desires. Hopefully you might even come across a few blogs you might want to bookmark and continue visiting.

How do I enter to win?


Each blog has their own giveaway and their own rules. The giveaways will start at midnight EST on the morning of September 10th and run through 11:59pm on the night of the 12th. That's a whole 72 that you get to visit as many blogs as you want and enter their amazing giveaways.
