Follow My Blog Friday #117


If you are new to the FF fun, Feature and Follow Friday is a blog hop that expands your blog following by a joint effort between bloggers. Feature & Follow Friday is now hosted by TWO hosts, myself of course and Alison of Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it'll allow us to show off more new blogs!

How does this work? First you leave your name here on this post, then you create a post on your own blog that links back to this post (easiest way is to just grab the code under the #FF picture and put it in your post) and then you visit as many blogs as you can and tell them "hi" in their comments (on the post that has the #FF image). You follow them, they follow you. Win. Win. Just make sure to follow back if someone follows you!

Now to make this FF interesting we do a FEATURE blogger. If you are interested in becoming a Feature click on the drop down link above FEATURES and Features and Follow Friday and get on the waiting list!  It is also required, that if you participate you must follow the hosts (Parajunkee and Alison Can Read) and the two Feature blogs.

This Meme is hosted by Rachel from Parajunkee's View and Alison from Alison Can Read on Fridays.

Our Feature Nina @ J’adore Happy Endings

When did you start blogging?

I started blogging since September 2009.

What is your favorite part of book blogging?
 
My favourite part of book blogging is getting to know other bloggers and authors. And also get to know readers with similar reading taste. I love that!

What is your favorite book(s)?
 
There are a lot of books that I consider my favourite. A couple of my favourites are Emma by Jane Austen (I love rereading this book!), From What I Remember by Stacey Kramer & Valerie Thomas (one of my favourite contemporary books this year) and Carrie Pilby by Caren Lissner (love!).

What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?
 
The comments that people leave at my blog. That always puts a smile on my face! The love from other bloggers, reaching blogging goals, reading books that are recommended to me, but are out of my comfort zone and absolutely loving them.

Q: What is the BIGGEST word you’ve seen used in a book lately – that made you stop and look it up? Might as well leave the definition & book too.
 
I actually haven’t looked up a word in a long while now! But, let’s pretend I just read Emma by Jane Austen. A couple of the words that I had to look up were: boast (show-off), caprice (a sudden desire) & alacrity (liveliness and eagerness).


(un)Conventional Bookviews

1. When did you start blogging?

I am still new (in my mind at least) as I only started blogging in June of this year.

2. What is your favorite part of book blogging?

It's getting to know new bloggers, I have discovered so many new book-blogs these past few months, and I love reading other people's point of view on books I have already read. It has also made my already convoluted TBR list bigger. There are so many passionate bloggers out there who make me want to read even more books that I usually read.

3. What is your favorite book(s)?

My favorite books that I've read this year are Chasing Magic, Stormdancer, The Iron Prince and Anna Dressed in Blood.

4. What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?

One is finding so many new friends. Another is that I actually sometimes get ARC's now. I love being able to read books before every other reader gets their hands on them.

Q: What is the BIGGEST word you've seen used in a book lately - that made you stop and look it up? Might as well leave the definition & book too.
