Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. This weeks topic: Top Ten Reason Why We Love [Book] Blogging!
I am still fairly new to this but this question is relatively easy.
- Other Bloggers: I have met some awesome people since I started book blogging. I rarely meet people with my same interests in real life. Meeting other bloggers is so refreshing.
- Authors: I never knew how easy it was to communicate with authors/ debut authors/ aspiring authors.
- Writing: I enjoy expressing myself here. It is a great outlet for a normally shy person. I really like participating in memes like this one and friday follow, blogger hop.
- BOOKS!! Talking about my obsession with books and the written word is totally acceptable. Books are my shoes! Other readers/ book bloggers get that.
- Read Requests: I'm sorry but I feel really important when a author approaches me and asks me to read their upcoming novel based on my blog.
- Reading: I have read so much more since I've started blogging. I give myself deadlines so now it is easier for me to take time out to read.
- Other Blogs: I really enjoy reading everyones blogs. Especially those who not only talk about books but their lives as well.
- New Books: I have been introduced to new books/ new authors/ new genres since I began blogging. It has really opened up my eyes.
- Creativity: I must say I love blogger. I wouldn't want to blog anywhere else. I love the design options and all the cool stuff you can do here. Others, who don't blog, see it and are really impressed and I can say I did that (eventhough its extremely easy).
- ARC: I had no clue what a ARC was before I started blogging. They are great! Love them!
More than anything, I have gotten great ideas for when I publish my novel. I had no idea about how to self market your work and how book bloggers can help with that.
What do you love about [book] blogging?

I love blogger too. I know it has been having some issues lately but I've had a blogger since 2004 (my personal) it is really simple and easy. It looks impressive and they are improving on things all the time.
Oh and I love all things books :)
I agree with you on #9 ! Blogger is great. I've been told to join Wordpress so many times, but I just can't seem to be able to leave blogger!! Speaking of which, love your blog design :)
Nice list!!
great topic today--it's nice to think about why we like to do this. I like associating with people who like books as much as I do. have a nice day. kaye-the road goes ever ever on
I feel the same way about Wordpress as you do about blogger. I've had so many people approach me about my blog layout and while I did it, it was easy because of Wordpress. :)
I love being able to talk with authors.... it amazes me how easy it really is... all of them that I have talked/emailed with have been wonderful. Great list!
