Follow Friday and Book Blogger Hop

By

It’s Friday, the day we kick back and wander from blog to blog reading what everyone else has to say!  I love this day.  Where I live, it’s a bit cold – perfect day for staying inside and surfing on the computer.  First up today is Follow Friday hosted by Parajunkee.


The rules from
Parajunkee’s blog are as follows:To join the fun and make now book blogger friends, just follow these simple rules:

  1. Follow the Follow My Book Blog Friday Host { Parajunkee.com } and any one else you want to follow on the list
  2. Follow our Featured Bloggers – http://g-reads.blogspot.com/
  3. Put your Blog name & URL in the Linky thing.
  4. Grab the button up there and place it in a post, this post is for people to find a place to say hi in your comments
  5. Follow Follow Follow as many as you can
  6. If someone comments and says they are following you, be a dear and follow back. Spread the Love…and the followers
  7. If you want to show the link list, just follow the link below the entries and copy and paste it within your post!
  8. If your new to the follow friday hop, comment and let me know, so I can stop by and check out your blog!
So….head over there and start Following!
The second similar weekly meme is the Book Blogger Hop hosted by Crazy-for-books
This is a fun meme where we all answer the weekly question and then have the opportunity to visit other blogs.  I believe that last week it had over 200 entries!!!  It took me the better part of the weekend to wander through all the blogs!
The question this week is:  Since Thanksgiving is approaching what are you thankful for?
My answer is everything I have.  I think that we generally take too much for granted and spend  too much time complaining.  I’ve been trying to not complain about what I don’t have and be more thankful for what I do have!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    LOL, I love how you say escapee. Yes, Toronto indeed does have a lot of snow and ice (right now everyone’s wondering when Old Man Winter is gonna start his ice hell).
    One of my places to visit before I die (Yes, I have a list) is BC. All the pictures I see are so beautiful!
    Well, have a great weekend.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog! :]

    I’m with you on the notion of not complaining. It’s nice to be positive most of the time.

    Have a great weekend!

      Thanks for following me on Twitter! I don’t have much to say because I don’t really know what I’m doing 🙂 Feel free to give advice!

    Hi Barb, It’s so long since I’ve had time to read a ‘grown-up’ book, I think I’ve forgotten what they’re like. Thanks for hopping by the Paperback Princesses.

    Hi there! Thanks for visiting my blog. I am your newest follower. Love romance too, but have been reading tons of YA of late. Great to meet you on here. 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving!

    I have been blogging for a month or so and am loving it. Should be working on my books, but I can’t help wanting to talk to fellow book lovers. It is my passion. Check out my other blogs if you get the chance. The links are on Bookgirl Knitting.

    What am I thankful for this holiday season? My friends, family, amazing job at the bookstore, new blogger buddies like yourself, my furry kids, knitting without stabbing my eyes out and this bag of chocolate sitting right here with my name on it.

    Best wishes and hope to see you around the blog.

    Hi! Great to find you and I love your blog. I am so happy you came to see me 🙂 You show some wonderful titles and I will be following to keep up with your reviews. I’m going to follow you on Twitter as well. This is a brand new challenge that I have set for myself. My book blog is so new but I am so excited to be actively reading again. I was so happy to get involved with the Book Blogger Hop this week and to get around to meet and greet. Take care, and Happy Thanksgiving!

    Hey Barb!

    Happy Blog Hop Weekend!

    Looks like we read a lot of the same stuff! I see you have The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie in your TBR pile (so do I! lol). I don’t know how wonderful that novel is, but the next one in the series, Lady Isabella’s Scandalous Marriage is fantastic! I know you’ll enjoy it!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog!

    I’m a new follower!
