Greetings fellow book lovers!


I'm a brand new book blogger and I would love to have your participation on this site...not because I want to become the biggest book blogger out there ;), but because I love sharing and hearing what others (YOU!) have to say about literature. I had no idea that there was this amazing book blogging community out there until a few months ago...and I'm soo excited about it. You'll notice that the reviews I've done so far are spaced a little far apart...it took me awhile to figure out this whole blogging thing and how it works. Up till now, I've usually had my nose stuck in a book instead of learning about things such as computers hehe! Yes, I'm a member of the Grandma Club on facebook. Anyways, after meeting two wonderful ladies who helped me set up this blog, I definitely have the hang of things now...so look for consistent (and I hope, interesting!) reviews and other tidbits. I love books of every kind, so I think there will be a little something for everyone on here! :)

Happy Reading!

  2. Hi Rebecca! Welcome to the blogging world! I think your design is gorgeous! Which is always a good thing. I'll look through and see your other posts and I'll subscribe by email so I remember to check in occasionally. You can know that I'm at least reading your posts even if I'm not always able to comment.
    I'll email you about you being featured :) It might be a minute though (or a few hours) I made the mistake of telling my kids we'll go to the store. Guess I HAVE to go now.

  38. Hi! I'm a new follower and I love your layout.
    I've been blogging for about a year and a half and I LOVE it.

    My daughter (a freshman in college) finally read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings over her spring break, then we watched the LOTR movies. I have always love The Hobbit!

    Come visit my blog if you get the chance: http://bookendcrossing.blogspot.com/2011/03/follow-friday-march-25th.html

  39. What a delightfully designed blog. It's professional looking and very warm and friendly at the same time. That's not easy to do. I am a new follower through Follow Friday. And I am pleased to meet you.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Hello! Your blog is absolutely beautiful. The Hobbit is one of the first books that I actually remember reading - I read it overnight during the summer between my fourth and fifth grade years in school. It is probably a major reason for my love of fantasy and science fiction, which in turn is why I blog.

  42. Rebecca! I am a new follower and a new blogger also. I really enjoy playing with the book covers and usually pick books by their cover! Anyone have a cure for that?! :)

  43. What a beautiful site you have! I love it! I'd never guess you were new to blogging!

    I'm fairly new, too! Only been doing this since the second week of February. I'm not as handy with the coding and widgets and everything else but I'm getting there!

    I'm so happy to meet you and I hope we'll become friends!

    Stop by and see me!
