Calling for Interviews

Calling for Interviews

The book blogging community is just awesome and a friendly bunch of readers.  But who are these amazing people?   I’ve been tossing the idea around and decide to start an interview segment to highlight all bloggers in readerland. When I was younger I loved show and tell, sharing what I felt was important to […]

Goodbye Google Reader!

Goodbye Google Reader!

It’s time to face the music, as of Monday Google Friend Connect will be no more.  I signed up for Bloglovin’ when I first heard of this travesty, I like the site but was always in denial.  I was under the delusion that Google would change its mind.  Apparently not.  Switching readers is like the […]

My brother will be getting married in August.  The beginning of said month will be crazy, thinking about bouquets rather than books.  Thus I plan on being absent from my blog.  What is a blogger to do?  I thought, and thought and came up with an answer, guest posters!  I would love it if any […]
