600 posts and we have a winner

It snuck up on me! I just noticed that the previous post, Hermes Baby was my 600th post on Bibliophilia. I noted the blog's fourth anniversary very recently in a post, but here's another milestone to celebrate.

The March giveaway winner is Kay who said this about songs that make her happy:

• I always feel happy when I hear Cliff Richard singing 'Summer Holiday'; because it brings back happy childhood memories; The Beach Boys singing 'Good Vibrations' because it brings back that 13-year old feeling of being on the brink of something good (independence maybe?) and 'A Case of You' by Joni Mitchell because I've learnt the words and can sing along!

Kay is a writer and blogger. Check out her poetry on Monkey Puzzle Sunrise and personal blog Made for Weather. She's picked the strawberry book as her prize, and it will be in the post to her later today along with a few little bits and pieces.


Thank you to everyone who entered the competition and shared three songs that make them feel happy. It seems like it was a more challenging question than the last one. Songs that make you feel happy are not always the same as the ones you like best. I'll be publishing the complete playlist in Happy Bus, but if you want a sneak preview, check out the comments here and here. And watch out for another giveaway early in April.
