Be sure to head over to My Friend Amy to keep up with what’s going on.
To get us started…you may have noticed that the blogs you love best and appreciate didn’t make the list of nominations! So today is your chance to thank them. Write a post thanking or highlighting the book blogs you love to read (be sure to link to them!) and then come back here and sign the Mister Linky.
Casee: One blog that I was surprised didn’t make it was The Good, The Bad and The Unread. I’ve bought too many books after reading a review over there. I think TGTBTU has some of the best reviews in blogland. Where I sometimes skim reviews on other sites, I read the reviews at TGTBTU. The different voices of the reviewers just tell me why I should/shouldn’t like this book and why. I also appreciate the fact that I don’t have to whip out a dictionary while reading a review. I’m not stoopid…srsly.
Another thing…they tell it like it is. I like that.
Holly: I completely agree with Casee. I adore TGTBTU. I find they have an eclectic mix of personal rants, excellent book reviews and various other romance related posts – from excerpts to guest author visits. It’s a madhouse over there, but I love it.
Another blog I adore and really wanted to see nominated for Best Author Blog is Jill Shalvis’ blog. I’m not joking when I say she’s one my list of daily reads and one of the first I check out in the morning. She has an excellent sense of humor that really comes across in her posts. I highly recommend you go over there and check her out!
Rowena: I have to agree with my blogging buddies with TGTBTU. I think Sybil and the other duckies over there have a great blog. A blog that’s informative, witty and very thorough. Their reviews are always great and their sense of humor never fails to crack me up.
Another blog that I absolutely adore is, Kristie J’s blog. I think her and Katiebabs have a fantastic blog. They’re on my to be read list everyday and without fail, their posts make me laugh, sigh and think really hard. I love Kristie J’s different crusade’s that she has going on and I just think that their blog is frickin’ awesome! Definitely worthy of a looksee! =)
There are more blogs that we absolutely love but we’d be here for days trying to list them all and quite frankly, we’re too lazy for all that. But rest assured that we love you all and we’re dying to know:
I totally agree with your guys. I have TGTBTU on my Greader and read it all the time, along with Jill’s blog. I think she’s the only author that I read the blog of everyday, because she’s just hilarious!
I can’t believe neither of these blogs mentioned wasn’t nominated!
I haven’t heard of any of these blogs so I appreciate the recommends.
One blog I love for its humor and good reviews is Bookfoolery and Babble. You should check it out.
AW you guys!!
YOU are my favorite blog ((HUGS))
even thought Holly is a freak and doesn’t like chocolate.
😛
TGTBTUR did get some noms, just not enough. 🙁 I’ve never read Jill’s blog, I’ll check it out!
I’m part of the Book Blogger Appreciation week and I wanted to thank you for all you do to help promote books.
Aw shucks!! Thanks Ro!! You made my eyes misty!
There are so many book blogs that I adore. It’s so hard to narrow any down – my list would be as long as the list on my sidebar *g*.
LMAO, this is how lame I am…I was tasked with appreciating someone who wasn’t nominated and Kristie J WAS nominated. LOL, I’m a dummy because I voted for her too, LOL.
I love all three of those blogs as well, they are great.
Holly, I agree, I noinated Jill’s blog for funniest as well.
