Three Sparkling Years – Welcome to Simona's Corner of Dreams

Hello my lovelies!

Another year has passed and today it’s Sky’s Book Corner’s third birthday, I can’t believe it. So many things have happened this year and I’m grateful for all of them. So the biggest news first and you probably have seen it already: I have decided to change the name of my blog to “Simona’s Corner of Dreams”. My blog has changed a lot in the past three years, I’m not only a book blogger, but also blog about lifestyle and traveling. That’s why I decided to give my blog a little make over and change the name. The design is still pretty much the same, but I’ve changed some small things (header, share button, intro pic and text, icons and buttons). Let me know what you think.

So the new url for my blog is: simonascornerofdreams.blogspot.com.

Shortly after last year’s blogoversary I went to London for Holly Martin’s book launch, that was so fabulous and I met so many great authors and bloggers. In April of this year I visited my second momma Wendy in Dallas, that’s Aven Ellis in case you didn’t know ;). I had the most amazing time with her. In Zurich I shortly met up with Isabell from Dreaming With Open Eyes Reviews and then I went to London again in July. In August I also met up with Alba in Munich, it was so fab to finally meet her in real life.

My bestie Maryline is also a book blogger and I met her through this whole blogging community. She asked me to be her bridesmaid and that is just wonderful, love you Mary!!!

Well, let’s get back to the blog. I started YouTube at the beginning of the year, which is pretty exciting. I don’t have that many subscribers, but I don’t care, it’s a hobby I enjoy. I haven’t read that many books this year, that’s probably connected on being busy with rehearsals for CHESS (performances in September) and I joined the committee of my choir. I still love reading though, it’s just not as many books ;). I also decided to post at least two lifestyle posts a week as well, to give my blog a great mixture of bookish things and daily life/hobbies.

Of course I have a giveaway planned for you guys, with great prizes, but before you do that, I’d love for you to fill out this little survey. It’s a survey for me to find out a bit more about you guys and how you actually found my blog. I would really appreciate it, if you would take the time to fill this out.
