Welcome to "Laurie Here - Contemporary Fiction and MORE - Book Reviews"! Join me and let's escape life into the wonderful world of books getting lost between the covers where the lives of the characters live and their amazing stories take place for a little while! Let's learn about the authors, too! I write "honest" book reviews about my experiences and tell you how the trip was! You may want to follow along with me, too!

This week's Book Blogger Hop question is:
What are three of your favorite book blogs and/or communities? Why do you like them?
My Answer:
1. I am going to agree with Julie that my #1 place I LOVE to go is Goodreads! I have so many wonderful friends and authors there, and the books are ENDLESS! I met a friend on my Facebook page, Kelly Goss, and I told her about Goodreads, and I have NEVER heard back from her again! LOL! I MUST email her or something! I think it's quite funny! She gave me a few updates, and in every update she gave me book suggestions! It was GREAT! That's what I love about Goodreads, too! Plus, there are Groups there, too, to join or not, and you get to see what all of your Friends are up to with the updates! It really IS a superb place!
2. A favorite Blog: Okay, I am NOT sucking up here, but, Jen at Crazy-for-Books IS one of my favorite blogs with the Fiction she chooses to read. I'm not to much into the Christian Non-Fiction books, but she CAN pick some GREAT Fiction! I love to see what she reads!
3. Another favorite would be Kathy at I Am A Reader, Not A Writer when she has some Romance Fiction! She can pick some GREAT ones! She just had a tour for The Reluctant Bachelorette by Rachael Renee Anderson, and I LOVED the book! She's had several other books as well that I have really liked a LOT! I'm not into the YA on her site too much, but she CAN pick those killler Romances lately!
Now go on over to Julie's place at Knitting and Sundries! You'll see the other blogs that are participating and can hop blog to blog and read their answers!
Enjoy!
Laurie

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Kathy! Thought you might like to read that!
DeleteYes, I am looking forward to the Christmas Book Hop, too! I really can't wait! SO glad you wanted to do it with me! Thanks!
I bought the book, "All I Want" by Rachael Renee Anderson, Kaylee Baldwin, and Jolene B Perry! You mentioned you loved the other two authors as well, so I think I'm going to find MORE AUTHORS TO READ!!! Thank you!
I missed the Blog Tour for that book, but HAD to buy the book anyway, given the authors! Hope you have MORE Blog Tours with GREAT books like those!
Have a GREAT weekend!
Laurie

Hi Elizabeth!
DeleteYes, Julie DID have 2 questions in a row! I 'think' there might be another blog that has that, too? I'd have to go back and look again! I did last week's, but I was LATE! This week I made it ON TIME! YEAH!!! Sometimes I forget it's Friday, and I'll do the post on Saturdays! LOL! I'm coming over to YOUR blog to read your answer, too! Looking forward to it!
Thanks for coming by and leaving a comment!
