Book Blogger Hop: 2/4-2/7

Book Blogger Hop


Instructions and rules for this hop are taken from Crazy-for-Books.

In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs to read! So, grab the logo  at Crazy-for-Books,  post about the Hop on your blog, and start HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list on  Crazy-for-Books!!


The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week, so if you don't have time to Hop today, go back later and join the fun! This is a weekly event! And stop back throughout the weekend to see all the new blogs that are added! They get over 200 links every week!!

RULES:

Your blog should have content related to books, including, but not limited to book reviews.

1. Enter your book blog link in the Linky List on Crazy-for-Books
In your link, please state the main genre that you review: eclectic, contemp. fiction, ya, paranormal, mystery, non-fiction, etc.

Example: Crazy-for-Books (contemp. adult fiction)

2. Post about the Hop on your blog. Spread the word about the book party! The more the merrier! In your blog post, answer the following question (new question each week!).


"What are you reading now and why are you reading it?"




My Answer:
I'm reading the Bone series by Jeff Smith.  The genre is graphic novel.  There are nine books and one prequel.  I'm reading this series as part of the Take a Chance Challenge, section #2, read a book of a loved ones chosing.

3. Visit other blogs in the Linky List! Make new friends! Follow new book bloggers! Talk about books! Rave about authors! Take the time to make a quality visit! Check out other posts and content, make a new friend! Don't randomly follow someone if you never intend on actually following them! No spamming please! (Please do not leave your link and not visit other blogs - it's just not cool and not in the spirit of the Hop!)


And just as an FYI - this event is not something you should feel that you have to participate in every week. If you want to join in and link up once a month, GREAT! It's up to you how often you participate!

So, have fun HOPPING and enjoy your BOOK PARTY weekend!!!

Signing off till next time

  2. Hello Lazy Girl, thank you for hopping by for a visit. The challenge is very interesting, I know I wouldn't be reading a graphic novel if I wasn't doing it.

  3. Good answer! The answer on my book blog is a little embarassing; it’s a book that’s been sitting on my TBR pile for a year.

    To my shame, I only opened the book because I remember it contained an Amazon gift card.

    Hop on over!

  5. Hi Lisa,
    Hopping by from the Hop. I just finished an AWESOME book on astronomy called Big Bang: The Origin of the Universe. It is amazing. The review is on my site if you want to learn more about it. I have never read a graphic novel before so you are my hero! My daughter loves them.

  6. Hopping through. New follower! I love reading manga, but I haven't read graphic novels in awhile. Have you read Persepolis?
