The (Very Late) Book Blog Newbie Tag
Hello, everyone! I probably should’ve done this as my first tag, but my organization of posts is not that great. I’ve been blogging for a little over three months, so this is very late, but I still thought I should do it. I’ve seen a variety of people do this, and it looks like a lot of fun. So, without further ado, the questions. Why did you want to start a book blog? I started thinking about beginning a book blog sometime last year. On the NaNoWriMo YWP, there was a thread where you could share your blogs. I was looking at it and clicked through some other people’s blogs.…

Get to Know Ya Book Tag
Hey, everyone! Today I’m doing something a little different and I’m doing my first tag. I’ve been blogging for about three and a half months now, but you still don’t know much about me and I thought this was a fun way to get to know me a little bit better: through books! I saw Katie @ Whispering Pages do this and it looks really fun. Favorite Book of All Time I’m always terrible at answering this question. I have to choose ONE? I’m never able to choose one, so I’m going to do a few of my all-time favorite books. Wonder ~ This book is such a heart-warming story…
