Here are a few of my favourite book bloggers.
I have not always done a very good job of visiting some of their blogs these past couple of years due to some tough personal stuff I’ve been dealing with, but they’re still all great people to follow.
If such things were possible, I’d love to get all of these folks together for a big group dinner as I think some new friendships could possibly spark from that evening.
He reviews a ton of indie authors and sometimes filmmakers from a variety of genres. He’s also a genuinely kind and friendly guy who I originally met on Twitter back before it imploded!
Another old Internet friend of mine. We met in the comment section of Bruce Gerencser’s blog, and I’ve learned so much about D&D and various books from his posts over the years. Sometimes he’ll share funny stories about his family, too.
A bookish friend I’ve known for years. She has the best sense of humour ever, and I live vicariously through the funny stories she sometimes shares about her cats.
Leah is someone I originally met through Top Ten Tuesday. She’s been a little quiet online lately, so I’m hoping all is well with her. I love the fact that she jumps around to various genres just like I do and that she’s normally so chatty if you strike up a conversation with her!
Dini is another wonderful person I met through TTT. Her blog has such an interesting assortment of books on it that I always check out what she’s reading if I don’t know what to read next. I also appreciate her sweet and gentle personality. She’s lovely.
Her Sunday posts are always so interesting! Lark’s willingness to stick up for others (e.g. immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community) is also something I admire about her.
This is the part where I admit that I thought Lark and Nicole were the same person for an embarrassingly long time due to how similar their blog titles are. They are both free to tease me endlessly about that if or when they read this post.
Nicole shares so many interesting knitting projects on her blog when she isn’t talking about books. One of these days I will try knitting myself, and it will be thanks to her. 🙂 She’s so talented.
Leelynn hasn’t posted in a while, but back when she did I loved being exposed to books on her blog I probably wouldn’t have otherwise known about. (She likes romance more than I do, after all!) Her friendly personality was another thing that drew her to me as well. She gets along well with everyone from what I’ve observed which is quite admirable.
Apologies if I missed anyone I regularly interact with! It was not done intentionally. There are so many incredible bloggers out there that I love getting to know.
Wow, these are great! I also enjoy Michael’s content. Some of the others are new to me but I’ll certainly be checking them out! 🙂
Thank you. 🙂
Twitter – I am so depressed about 𝕏 doing whatever they did so that #booktwitter and #cattwitter are barely there anymore.
I’m on Bluesky, but not really active.
I’m sorry, Rebecca. A ton of people left Twitter a few years ago, including me.
If you’re interested in trying Mastodon, the #Bookstodon community there is pretty active. About 900 posts using that hashtag have been shared in the last week.
I can share some other bookish hashtags as well if you decide to sign up.
Thanks for the reminder of Nerdy Reader Girl. I used to visit more regularly. Lark’s blog is wonderful, too. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome!
I wasn’t going NEAR this topic. Reminds me too much of choosing the MySpace top 8.
Heh, I get that.
