Book Blogger Hop: 3/11-3/14

Book Blogger Hop
Grab the Logo!


In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word!  This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books!  It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs to read!  So, grab the logo, post about the Hop on your blog, and start HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list below!!

The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week, so if you don’t have time to Hop today, come back later and join the fun!  This is a weekly event!  And stop back throughout the weekend to see all the new blogs that are added!  We get over 200 links every week!! 

RULES:

Your blog should have content related to books, including, but not limited to book reviews.

1.  Enter your book blog link in the Linky List below
In your link, please state the main genre that you review:  eclectic, contemp. fiction, ya, paranormal, mystery, non-fiction, etc.

Example:  Crazy-for-Books (contemp. adult fiction) 
2. Post about the Hop on your blog.  Spread the word about the book party!  The more the merrier!  In your blog post, answer the following question (new question each week!).  

If you have a suggestion for a future HOP question, click here to fill out the form!  Thanks! 

 
This week’s question comes from Ellie who blogs at Musings of a Bookshop Girl:

 ”If I gave you £50 (or $80) and sent you into a bookshop right now, what would be in your basket when you finally staggered to the till?”

My answer:  I love this question!  And what a tough choice!  Here is my list:

Stay by Allie Larkin
Winter Bloom by Tara Heavey
Once Was Lost by Sara Zarr
Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers
Her Mother’s Hope by Francine Rivers
Her Daughter’s Dream by Francine Rivers
Chosen by Chandra Hoffman

Stay  Winter Bloom  Once Was Lost  Redeeming Love  Her Mother's Hope (Marta's Legacy)  Her Daughter's Dream (Marta's Legacy)  Chosen: A Novel

3.  Visit other blogs in the Linky List!  Make new friends!  Follow new book bloggers!  Talk about books!  Rave about authors!  Take the time to make a quality visit!  Check out other posts and content, make a new friend!  Don’t randomly follow someone if you never intend on actually following them!  No spamming please!  (Please do not leave your link and not visit other blogs – it’s just not cool and not in the spirit of the Hop!)

And just as an FYI – this event is not something you should feel that you have to participate in every week.  If you want to join in and link up once a month, GREAT!  It’s up to you how often you participate!

So, have fun HOPPING and enjoy your BOOK PARTY weekend!!!

UPDATE:  THE BOOK BLOGGER HOP DOES NOT ACCEPT TWITTER LINKS!  IF YOU LEAVE A TWITTER LINK, IT WILL BE DELETED!!!  ONLY YOUR BLOG URL IS ACCEPTED!  THANK YOU!


Til next time, stay crazy….for books, that is!

    I've read reviews for Stay and Winter Bloom and they're both excellent choices. I've linked my wish list but had a hard time choosing!

    Enjoy your weekend!!

    80$ right now? First I'd buy the new Black Dagger book since I think 14,99 for a Kindle is way too much but I want to read it nevertheless.
    Then I'd buy the whole “Werecats” series from Rachel Vincent. I just started and love them already!!!

    Happy Friday!!

    Wow, I feel lame. The only book I recognize on here is ONCE WAS LOST by Sara Zarr. Great list. :) And awesome question this week! I went completely overboard answering this question, even though I usually try to avoid these types of questions. Lol.

    I would ask for an Amazon Gift card instead and use it to buy some of my preordered books…of which I have a zillion…right now I am really interested in YA Fantasy/Paranormal books.

      Hmm… I think you are cheating on the question!  LOL!  If you are in a bookshop, I don't think they are going to give you an Amazon GC to spend outside of their bookshop!  LOLOL!!

    I think I goofed!!! I thought you wanted the topic of a blog post for the blog hop and I put that in rather than my blog name…I am so sorry and I don't know how to fix it…Do I need to fix it?

    Yay, thanks for choosing my question this week! I've had double the fun, trawling everyone's answers, peeking at their choices and adding another mountain of books to my own wishlist in the process… ;-)
