Welcome to another year of Book Blogger Appreciation Week! With no awards this year, this is a much less formal and (I think) more fun event where we are all winners for spreading our love of books. There's no pressure to be anything but jubilant and thankful.
Today's writing prompt is
Share with your readers some of the blogs you enjoy reading daily and why.Well, this is the part of BBAW where everyone is afraid of leaving someone out and I'm no different. So I'm going to share as many as I possibly can but I truly apologize if I miss yours and you know I'm a reader. These are the book blogs that I've been reading for a while now, the ones who post regularly, the ones that have great content, the ones who have caused me to have a 200+ TBR, and the ones that make me proud to be part of this community. I'm listing names first because it's the blogger that makes the blog!

If I had an award to give to these bloggers, it would say something like
In Appreciation of Your Dedication to Books New and Old, Your Enthusiasm About the Written Word and Your Friendship in a Unique Community.
Thank you all for giving this nerdy and eclectic reader a place to feel at home!
Hugs all around,
K (and Z)
I hadn't heard of some of these blogs.
ReplyDeleteMy post is up!!
Aw, thanks for having me on your list! They're all great blogs!
ReplyDeleteA seriously thorough and awesome list! Thank you for sharing it with all of us today :)
ReplyDeleteNew follower and new to your blog :)
I am enjoying my visits to all of these BBAW blogs and posts!
Cant wait to see what the rest of the week has in store!
BBAW Day 1
Haha! How I love my category!
ReplyDeleteLove how you've organized your list! Not familiar with some of these, so will definitely check them out!
ReplyDeleteExcellent way of organizing this topic and introducing us to new (or re-introducing us to old) favorites!
ReplyDeleteSome of these (A Literary Odyssey, Leeswammes, etc) have been favorites of mine for years, but most are still new to me - so I'm excited to head off right now and 'meet' them!
Happy BBAW!
Adam
I love reading all these BBAW posts today. What a positive way to celebrate bloggers and blogging!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I totally dig how you set this one up! Nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning me! I adore your blog as well-you always have such wonderfully written posts!
ReplyDeleteI love the set-up, and I found a few blogs that aren't on my reader, so thank you!
I'm a total BBAW slacker this year … it snuck up on me and I'm woefully unprepared. But I'm honored to be included on your list, which simply has the BEST categories ever! I mean a category for Simons!?? How cool is that!?
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm especially pleased to be in the great discussions category because I love that we have such great commenters bringing the great conversation.
ReplyDelete*laughs* Aw, I get my own category! I'm so moved!
ReplyDeleteSo many great blogs! And I love the categories. The Simons, huh? looks like I have some research to do after this post! Happy BBAW Kristen!
ReplyDeleteWhoa, I Amin the great discussions section?! I am so honored- sharing the space with fantastic people :)
ReplyDeleteLike jenners, BBAW snuck up on me this year and I am scrambling to participate. Maybe later in the week!
Obviously, I heart you, too.
Thank you so much for the appreciation, Kristen! It means a lot to me. :) I really like how you organized your mentions, too--very fun and creative.
ReplyDeleteWow! So many incredible blogs! I'm honored to be included! Thank you so so much! I know of the vast majority of these, but there are still a few I haven't read yet. Definitely need to check them out! Thank you again!!!! xo
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you so much for the mention! I love BBAW, and I sort of wish I had taken your tack (mention EVERYONE!). *grin* Hope you enjoy the week!
ReplyDeleteNice way of listing your favorite bloggers! I especially like that "Simons" category, wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning me, so nice.
Awww, you think I'm witty and smart? I must be a better actress than I thought…! ;) Thank you, truly. I have enjoyed getting to know you this year (and Z!) and look forward to what's to come!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the mention--very kind of you! I see lots of familiar places that I also enjoy visiting and now must check out those blogs that are new to me.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the mention! I love your categories, which are full of lots of new-to-me blogs. I can see my Google Reader exploding sometime before the end of BBAW...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the mention! I'm so behind with my blogging (hangs head in shame). I hope you had a good BBAW!
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot to stop by earlier to say thanks for mentioning me!!! I read this a while ago, but forgot to comment!! :)
