"All the best stories in the world are but one story in reality -- the story of escape. It is the only thing which interests us all and at all times, how to escape."
--Author Christopher Benson

BOOK BLOG HOP!!

ABOUT THE HOP:
IT IS HOSTED BY:  Jennifer at 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, post about the Hop on your blog, and start HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list below!!

The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week, so if you don't have time to Hop today, come 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!  We get over 300 links every week!! 


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

RULES:

1.  Enter your book blog link in the Linky List below
In your link, please state the main genre that you review:  eclectic, contemp. fiction, ya, paranormal, mystery, non-fiction, etc.  Please do not list every genre you review - if you are review a variety, please put eclectic!  The Hop gets jumbled up if the title is too long, so please limit to one genre.  I will be limiting the number of characters in the title to ensure the Hop doesn't look messy!  Thank you!
Example:  Crazy-for-Books (literary fiction)
NOTE:   You no longer have to enter the length of time you've been blogging, but do let us know if this is your first time hopping with us!

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!).  If you have a question that could be used in a future Hop, leave it in the comments!  Thanks!


This week's question comes from Libraryscatbooks!


How many blogs do you follow?
I follow about 60 blogs regularly and try to visit each at least once a week.  I check out the my Blogger Reading List every morning and if I see something that interest me I hop right over to check it out. Also I usually try to go down my list on Saturday to visit anyone I didn't visit during this Book Blog Hop, Feel Good Fridays, or What Are You Reading Mondays.  It is through these three memes that I find new blogs each week and my "follow list" grows a little each week.   It is sad when you go to visit a blog and the link is no longer working or hasn't been posted on for a while, then I usually send an email to the host and the answer is they are no longer blogging for a variety of reasons.
 
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!)

So, have fun HOPPING and enjoy your BOOK PARTY weekend!!!
 
 
 
 Please check out the Kohl's Cares
links at the top of my blog. 
It would be great if you could vote for our schools 
but you can also 
follow the links to find and support 
your own home town schools too.  
 
BE SURE TO CHECK OUT MY GIVEAWAYS,
I am hosting a cool one from UPRINT, plus two book giveaways.

HAPPY READING 
HAPPY HOPPING!!!
