Book Blogger Hop - August 24

Book Blogger Hop
Blogging Question: What is your favorite thing about blogging?
Absolutely, it is making friends.  I've met some awesome people in real life after becoming friends online.  I had dinner with Kate and Kim for Kim's birthday on Wednesday and this weekend we are having a weekend readathon at Kim's house.  I don't have a picture of the three of us, but this is me and Kate on the megabus to NYC for BEA.  Kim was there, too, but she's not in the picture.  So sad.



And Kate and Kim are just the local bloggers I've met.  Meeting Jen Ryland at BEA was a huge highlight of the week (she's awesome!).  I text Ashelynn about boys (poor Ashelynn) and chat on the phone with Courtney.  Plus there are so many other awesome bloggers that I've met in real life and hope to meet soon.  Book bloggers are some seriously awesome people.

  3. I totally agree! Making friends is awesome! I really struggle with it so it's nice that it's easier with something in common like a love of books!

  4. Yes, I completely agree!!! I loved meeting and hanging out with book bloggers at BEA, I just wish we'd had more time. Seriously, I love my book blogging friends! I'll see you at RT in May (yup, you're going, heehee).

  5. That is great you went to the BEA together and met while blogging. I went alone...it was fun, but would have been better to share with another person.

    I love meeting new folks as well, and I love the creativity on blogs in the posts and in the design.

    Stop by to read my entire post if you like.

    Happy Friday!!

  6. Aw, thanks for mentioning me. I loved meeting you and am so excited that we get to meet up again!

    Meeting other people who love to talk about books is by far the best part of blogging!

  7. I'm jealous that you got to meet Jen! ;)

    Definitely "meeting" you and Kim and Jen and Jessie Marie and all my other blogger friends has been the best part of this experience. I can't wait to meet you guys IRL! ;)
