Blogs I've Discovered and the Book Blogger Hop

I've found a few interesting book blogs in the last few weeks. I thought I'd share them with you while I'm participating in this week's Book Blogger Hop.

English Major's Junk Food - Ash is a fellow student at my University who shares my passion for reading and libraries. I "ran into her" on Goodreads.com and found out we'll be working in the same building this fall.

In the Library of Lady Violet - Rachel reads and reviews a variety of books. I am enjoying her vlogs and confess it's partly for her U.K. accent. I can't help it. I live in the middle of the U.S. and we don't get many visitors in these here parts. Ok, and her reviews are great, too!

Park Benches and Book Ends - Jess and Chris are a married duo reviewing a variety of books. They've got a little something for everybody. Even if a book doesn't particularly interest me I still enjoy reading their posts for their humor and insight. 

I've been reading several juvenile/ya books lately and have found a couple good ones. I'm really enjoying The Forest of Hands and Teeth right now. I'll be taking a short repreive from the ya after this book. I'm in the mood for something "grown-up." If you're hopping by from the Book Hop stick around and check out my site. Before you leave, VOTE IN MY POLL for my next giveaway! Happy Hopping!

  12. Hi Chelle! I just posted a review of The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. When I looked back at my original post about the book, I saw your comment about wanting to read it. Did you end up reading it online? Just curious about what you thought :) And thanks for the blog recommendations! I'm heading over to Park Benches and Bookends right now.
