Jeanette (Latte and a Book) (jeanettethomsen) Hi book bloggers.
My name is Jeanette and I'm a 32 (33 next week) years old Swedish wife, mother to three kids, latte and book loving blogger.

My blog is http://latteandabook.com is the place where I share my book passion, I share reviews and other book related posts. Don't worry, I write in English :) I'm also active on Twitter @jia_thomsen and my other book related account is my bookstagram account @latteandabook.

I love fantasy, YA, crime and thrillers. But often I read the book I am in mood for and if I the blurb are interesting :)

Looking forward to connect with fellow book bloggers!

KT | 23 comments Hi. I'm Katie from Yorkshire, England and have a couple of blogs but my book related one is https://duvetdwellersbookclub.com/ I have a chronic illness so it is related to a book group I run for spoonies but I plan to make it broader with more book reviews and book related natters.
I love all books except classics but particularly enjoy psychological thrillers and contempory fiction but do read chick lit as easy reads 😊 I look forward to catching up with you all. My twitter is @DuvetDwellers and instragram is duvetdwellersbookclub


Carol (Reading Ladies) (carolreadingladies) | 142 comments I live in sunny Southern California, USA. I'm a newly retired teacher (5th grade) and because I suddenly have loads of free time, I needed a project to invest in and I'm an avid reader who always talks books with whomever will listen....so I thought a blog of book reviews would be perfect for me! I especially love supporting women authors who write about strong independent women finding their voice. My favorite genre is historical fiction (see my shelf on goodreads) and I love books of substance with important themes. I was initially an English Lit major in college before I switched to elementary education. My education also includes an A.S. degree in graphics technology (worked in graphic design before I went into teaching). I also studied ASL for 3 years because I lived near a deaf community....since we moved away I haven't used it much and I'm a little rusty. My favorite pass time was signing to songs.....I still think about how I would sign certain phrases in songs. It's a beautiful language. In addition to reading, I would love to travel but I'm married to a homebody :( so I content myself with gardening and blogging.

USOM (utopia-state-of-mind) Hi everyone! My blog, utopia-state-of-mind.com, focuses on SF/Fantasy/Diverse YA Fiction. I have been blogging just over a year and really love it!

At the moment I am living in Munich but I hope to resettle in NYC at some point. I studied literature for six years and doing two thesis: one on Aliens and the other on Cyborgs. So I am for sure a SF nut.

Kathy - Books & Munches (booksandmunches) | 5 comments Hi!

My name's Kathy and I've been blogging for about a month and a half now on http://booksandmunches.wordpress.com.

I mostly read YA, fantasy and romance / chicklit novels.

I try to link every book I read and review to some type of food / dish / munches [and sometimes drink]. Let's say that it gives my blog a unique spin, haha.

Glad to join you guys!

I would be happy to help 💖 Memes are a great way to generate constant material for the blog. This is the reason why I chose to do them. I cannot post a review every single day so they are a great help. Plus, you can schedule them all in advance.
I found this page really helpful while I was looking for memes to do: https://bookshelffantasies.com/book-b...
You will have to check the meme's host blog to see whether they are currently active.
I followed your blog yesterday! Followed you on twitter too :)


Gem - The Tasty Chapter (glimpsinggembles) | 8 comments Oh I will check out that page for the memes - thanks! I am very new to the concept really, so I will read a few more of yours and figure out what I need to do!

message 33: by Briana (new)

Briana | 6 comments Hi, everyone!

I'm Briana, and I've seen blogging at Pages Unbound (http://pagesunbound.wordpress.com) for six years now.

My co-blogger and I read all kinds of books, but I think people generally associate our blog with fantasy, middle grade, young adult, and classics.

We also do discussion posts and fun things like quizzes, and right now we're having a week of academic advice posts to celebrate the upcoming start of school, but I promise we are actually a book blog. ;)


Carol (Reading Ladies) (carolreadingladies) | 142 comments Briana.....beautiful blog! It's a model for me as I get started! It's a work in progress! https://readingladies.com

Hi Briana! I love your blog! I think I visited it several times before making my own :)
I also wanted to talk to someone who had been blogging on wordpress.com for a long time. My primary question is that: 1. Do you have to pay for the hosting? And 2. How long does a person have before he/she has to switch to the paid version?
Thanks!

Hi Eram! My blog is hosted on Wordpress, and you do not have to pay for hosting at all if you do not need a custom domain! (i.e. removing the .wordpress.com) You have unlimited time until you decide to pay for a custom domain and other perks offered in their packages (e.g. more storage space etc.). If you never decide to switch to the paid versions, that's fine too!


Gem - The Tasty Chapter (glimpsinggembles) | 8 comments Christy I love the way you write! I have followed your blog; you have a unique style 😊👌

Hi! I'm Bri and I have a book blog called Words With Bri-- https://wordswithbri.wordpress.com/ where I write book reviews and other bookish posts.

I am pretty new to the blogging world (been blogging for about two months) and would love to meet other bloggers who love books!

Readers Bay (readersbay) | 1 comments Hi book bloggers!

I'm Urooba, a 19-year old awkward-at-introductions sorta teen. I'm pretty new to blogging and book reviewing shit. It's been a month since I've started it! So currently I review books which I've read since I started my blog and other bookish stuff! Check it out here: TheReadersBay.wordpress.com

Anyways, I love historical fiction, fantasy contemporary YA and classics! I hate John Green and find Nicholas Sparks too monotonous and sappy!

It's great to be here and I hope to make new blogger friends here 🙌🏼


message 45: by lara (new)

lara (words_with_lara) Hey! I'm Lara and I blog at Words With Lara (http://wordswithlara.blogspot.com).

It's a new blog, but I've been blogging inconsistently for about five years now (im trying to make this blog a little more consistent). I blog about all things bookish and writing related, mainly to do with YA but I branch out a little bit as well.

I love the community that comes with blogging and I always like meeting new people :)

I think that's all!

Cas ♛ (rowangalathynius) Hi, I'm Rose, from Lovely Paranormal Books

Blogging comes with such an amazing community and while I don't get to interact with other bloggers or comment on other blogs anywhere near as much as I'd like, I love how supportive everyone is.

I also have a bookstagram (slowly developing my style), @illyrianbooks

And I attempt to be active on twitter @azrielsmate

I love reading anything really, but have a special love for fantasy/dystopia, paranormal romance and mystery thrillers.

Tanya Davis (rantingreadingaddict) | 1 comments Hi Everyone! I'm Tanya, living in TX. I have 2 semi-grown children (meaning they are adults but still living home being spoiled rotten). I love the PNR and Urban Fantasy genres. They truly have been my go to for years now and it is only rarely that I venture out into other genres. I have read some contemporary and erotica from PNR authors, so I have made exceptions.
