The Book Monsters discussion

If you're a blogger like me, you can share your blog here! :) Obviously, I blog at The Book Monsters but I also blog at another combo blog with two other librarians called Book Blather.

My blog is called Hopelessly Devoted Bibliophile! It is mostly book related, with some randomness thrown in now and then. Just like my life!

Side note, I have a Summer Reading Challenge going on now if anyone would like to join :). It's on until the end of August. I'd love to have some more participants!

Your blog is so cute! I'll have to sign up for that challenge. Anything to get me motivated to read is a big plus! :)

Aw thanks Kristen! *blushes* I'd love to have you take part :). There's some great prizes, and I'm hoping more people want to come participate. Yay books and goodies!

My blog is Escape Through the Pages. Mostly YA and MG with some adult lit thrown in every now and then :)

My blog has a strange name, but is tons of fun! I've got a lot of YA fiction there, as well as some adult. It's called Robolobolyn's Universe of Books.

(Can't pronounce it? It's a random nickname my friend make up for me a few years ago, pronounced like Rob-o-lob-o-lyn).

Thanks for sharing ladies! Will head over soon to check out some of your posts. Although I'm pretty sure I already read Escape Through The Pages. :)

My blog is Babsbookbistro It is mostly about books and some recipes and more.

these are all so great! This is me. http://dirtypages.blogspot.com/

My blog is http://eatingyabooks.blogspot.com. I started it as an extension to my classroom and my reading. I also have a connected blog I use for The Area Wide Book Battle I helped co-found with my school librarian and another district librarian. We are in out 6th year and host over 30 middle schools in an annual competition. We even have authors who attend and sign books for the students. Last year James Dashner and Heather Brewer attended.

Jan, that is so cool.

That's so awesome Jan! What fun that must be to host!

Wow Jan. Just WOW! :) I was already following you but now I think you're even COOLER!

If you're ever in the mood to read a blog by an author, about authoring (is that a word?), and the weird thoughts that cross my brain, feel free to check out http://writeforcoffee.blogspot.com.

And by the way, any book blogger who wants to review my books, just let me know and I'll get you a copy, one way or another. I don't know how you all find time to read so many books so quickly!

Hey there- my humble blog is http://oneminutebooks.blogspot.com... I have only been on blogger for a few months (I previously blogged on livejournal for 9 years)- Live Journal is good for connecting with authors, but not so great for connecting with other book bloggers!

Thanks for sharing Amanda and Anne! Can't wait to check them out. :)

I got a request via a friend request and once I accepted the friend request the attached email address disappeared! Eeek! Email me! :)

Here is my blog: http://shining-garnet.xanga.com/

I blog about various topics. Books, writing, movies, my day and just whatever I feel like writing about. I also post book reviews of books I've read and really liked.

I blog at the The Musings of ALMYBNENR. I review mostly YA and historical fiction, but anything that catches my fancy is game.

My personal blog is: http://ladyozma.wordpress.com and I cover all sorts of things. Mostly whatever is going on today. If that's books, then great. Sometimes it's writing, kids, cooking, crafting, news, nerdery, music, costuming... you get the picture! :)

I have a photoblog as well at http://emeraldlens.info

Ooo sounds like fun! Will be checking that out soonishly. :)

Here is my blog: A Few Good Books

I review every book I read on here and particpate in a few memes. I also post some movie reviews and talk about books!

I've been blogging for almost 5 years (one month to go!) at The Shady Glade. There's not much going on at the moment, as I'm doing a lot of behind the scenes stuff for two big events, the 2011 YA Bloggers Book Battle and the Tamora Pierce Reading Challenge. Seems like there's always something big going on. :)

I focus on whatever I read, which is mostly YA books with some middle grade thrown in, especially in the genres of fantasy, historical fiction, and graphic novels.

Cute blog! And awww a pic of your baby on the latest post. What a little pumpkin he is! So adorable. :)

I should have posted my information earlier, but I've been so busy! My blog is http://www.aflashlightreader.blogspot...

I should really learn how to make links when I post. =) Oh well. Nice to meet everyone!

Mine is called Book Fanatics and you can find it here http://kapri-bookfanatics.blogspot.com

Thanks for sharing ladies! :)

My blog is Teach Mentor Texts and has reviews and helpful hints on how to use the books in a classroom. I post mostly about MG and YA while my blog partner posts more primary books- it is a fun site :)

As someone who has shied away from new technologies, it's amazing to see some of the blogs (content and design) attached to this discussion. I hope my site is as good when ready. Great idea to share blogs, look forward to reading some reviews.

There's a lot you can really explore with blogs now and Kate and I created our header and other things using some online scrapbooking kit that was pretty inexpensive. Then it's just playing around with it in a photo editor program like GIMP (which is free) and Photoshop (not free). Blogs are fun to play with and there's a lot of sites you can find information on to make it cooler looking. :)

What Kristen said. Blogging is so much easier now than it used to be. :) There's more information out there than you could ever read. HEHE :)

I have a new book blog, it's called Wannabe Author ~ Avid Reader http://sheilahickmonauthor.blogspot.com/

There's not a whole lot going on yet, just a few reviews. I'd love to start doing author interviews and all that fun stuff :)

Thanks for sharing Sheila!

I just started a blog. It covers everyday things, books and such. It's a little rough around the edges. http://mylife-n-stuff.blogspot.com/

yay, Amy! Welcome to the wonderful world of blogging! :) And I think your blog is fine. And even if you think it is rough around the edges, remember we all started somewhere! I look forward to seeing more entries from you!

Here's mine, been blogging a couple of months now. Loving every minute of it - but it sure does take some work lol - good job I love it! :D

Wow Mackenzie! Three? I share two blogs and can barely keep up! :) Of course, starting my masters has put a damper on a lot of things.

Thanks for sharing Amy and Kelsey, checking them out now! :)

Hahaha yeah! Its time consuming, but I share the same reviews on all of them so its not that bad. All reviews I do go up on mine, but only a select few go on the others. I do about one a week on YA Infat. and only 2 a month on YABC blog because there are a bunch of us that are a part of that one :) If I did any more I'd definitely have a hard time! Yeah, getting a Masters is known to complicate things :P Good luck!

Hello fellow bloggers,
I am looking for readers & commenters on my blog. I will follow back & comment too :)

I am interested in joining the tour. How do I do it?

Ah that makes more sense now Mackenzie. :) I just started, but this next class is YA Lit so it will at least get me reading some great books. :)
