Top Ten Tuesday-Book Blogs

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.  http://www.thatartsyreadergirl.com/top-ten-tuesday/

NB: I don't follow or leave comments on blogs run by Google Plus, or DISQUS as I refuse to join something just to leave comments, and I won't allow them to follow new people, update my profile or post tweets 'on my behalf'. I won't comment on any blog that makes me sign in using another account. 

This week I'm tweaking it a little and giving a shout out to the 20 book blogs whose bloggers are my most frequent visitors over the summer. 10 was too difficult to narrow down so 20 seems a good number! I've picked out a few reasons why I enjoy these blogs just as an example of some of the stuff they do. Giving some love here!

Thank you to ALL bloggers that take the time to visit my blog and say hi! You guys are the reason that I want to keep blogging! And don't feel bad if you aren't on this list-it certainly doesn't mean I don't appreciate you or your blog...I just had to stop somewhere!

    1. It's always fun to see which blogs everyone likes and find some new people! We might be seeing the same bloggers comments on each blog we visit now!

    1. I'm the same! I found a few good sounding blogs on others posts but sadly some use that DISQUS so I can't follow them!

  8. This is like a who's who of my favorite blogs, I visit almost all of these all the time! And I see several on here that I wish I had included on my list- I almost skipped this one for that very reason! Great list. And you better not ever quit blogging because I love stopping by. Plus your posts are always fun. :)

    Thank you for including me! That's awesome company to be in. :)

    1. I found four new blogs to follow from your list so that was good! I liked the look of another but she uses DISQUS so I wouldn't be able to comment there which is a bummer!

  9. 10 was difficult, but it just made me plan future blogger appreciation posts. It was fun and difficult doing this post. I see some blogs I visit a bunch. Carole shares my love for hockey romances, and Greg does so many different and awesome things on his blog. Verushka just totally knows how to sell any book to me. Fabulous list.

    1. I usually avoid topics about choosing blogs you like as it makes me feel guilty. I only did it this time because I cheated! There are a lot of blogs I leave comments on and some that I follow just for book ideas that I don't comment on (usually because they use DISQUS). Mind you, I've just added another few to follow after this topic!

  10. Thank you for the shoutout! I always feel so honored to be linked or featured on your blog. And I am in great company! Love your blog, and I also follow a lot of the ones you included above!

  12. Thanks for the mention! What a lot of fantastic blogs and a few that are unfamiliar to me. I need to go check out a lot of these. I love your take on this topic. I avoided it because I couldn't come up with a way to do it!
