Q: What drove you to start book blogging in the first place?
- I started blogging because when I was looking for new series to read, I would run across blogs. And I thought, hey I can do this. It’ll give me something to do at work. Seriously, my job was so mind numbly boring that it was a diversion from my “day job” and gave my mind something to work on.
I can also tell you that I am a typical Aries, we never really keep up with things so I am absolutely astonished that I am still blogging almost two years later! Guess I must really like it. =)
lmao I loved that you put Aries sign in there. I'm the same sign and I've surprised myself by keeping up with this since blogging for me was an impulse decision
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!!

Ning! I knew there was a reason I liked you so much! I'm such an impulse person, esp when it comes to shopping and trips. Like today I almost decided to go to Vegas tomorrow. lol
DeleteWay to go! I joined GR for the same reason. I needed more books to read and fell in love with that site. Thanks for stopping by my page. :0)
ReplyDeleteFollowed back on GFC
I'm a GRs addict, it's one of my most visited sites!
DeleteYou know I'm not an Aries but I should have been, I have been known to just do and then after awhile get bored but not with this I love it so much.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by :). Have a wonderful weekend. Vegas huh? man someday would love to go there.
Never been to Vegas! Oh no! It's just one of those places you need to go to once. put it on your #YOLO list!
DeleteNow you mention it, I'm fairly surprised I've managed to keep blogging for almost a year - I normally lose interest in things I've started! Congrats on making nearly two!
ReplyDeleteMy FF this week

I'm an Aries too! And boy do I agree with you about rarely being able to keep up with things -_- I hope I keep this blog running for a long time!

*Fist bumps in a show of star-sign solidarity* I'm so surprised I've stuck with blogging too, in true Aries form I have all these brilliant, bright and shiny ideas and I actually stick with it enough to get it off the ground, and then it plummets like a dead weight when the next shiny distraction comes along. Thanks for stopping by My FF! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a Sagittarius and can never remember my "ways"! But I do love to talk about books and a blog was a great output for me since none of my friends liked the same books as I do!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Friday Hops
I was a featured blogger!!
Have a GREAT weekend!
Old Follower :)
I myself am a Scorpio. I attack challenges with vigor and then kind of get side tracked... But I'm surprised I've been keeping up with my own blog as well! Book blogging must just be that awesome!
ReplyDeleteGreat blog. Following back!
Love your blog! Thanks for stopping by - I followed you back via GFC! I'm a Gemini, so I'm always going in two directions at once and I usually cannot stop talking - I tend to elaborate, lol!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Friday!
Good for you! Keep on going! Old Follower. My FF is at lkhill.blogspot.com and musingsonfantasia.blogspot.com! Happy Friday! :D
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised I'm still blogging as well! Sometimes I slip and I don't post much, but I am still plugging away! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I am now following you via GFC!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by - new follower (GFC & Linky).
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I look at blogging as a nice distraction from my day-to-day life in the office, but that's an honest answer I'd rather the boss didn't read. LOL
Bob @ Beauty in Ruins
I agree! I'm still in school and I feel like it will be something to keep me sane amidst all the tests and papers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! New follower :)
It's never boring to blog like that, a wonderful thing I agree!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and following! I am now following you back!
ReplyDeleteLOL, I blog during my day job too! Well, I'm a stay-at-home mom. My house is never clean, I'm always late with food, laundry & dishes are a lost cause, haha. Followed you back via Linky :0)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more! Shush...I'm blogging from my "real" job :)
ReplyDeleteI followed you back via GFC!Have a great weekend!
I used to have some everyday blogs, but I could never keep up with them! Now, I can't even imagine NOT book blogging, so it just goes to show that you really have to like it! :)
