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.

Our Feature is blogger Mab @ Mab is Mab
When did you start blogging?
I created my blog about three years ago, but due to work and life changes in the beginning, I have only really been able to give it proper attention in the past year, and I love it! I couldn’t imagine not having my blog now!
What is your favorite part of book blogging?
I love the discussion books create. No-one has the same opinion or interpretation, it’s great! I love it when someone leaves a comment on one of my reviews, challenging or questioning it. I love a good discussion!
What type of books do you mainly blog about?
I mostly read and review ghosts stories, dark fiction and horror, though I am prone to needing some lighter, comic relief reading after all that, too! So you’ll also find some YA fiction on the blog.
What is your favorite book(s)?
My favourite book of all time is The Subtle Knife by Philip Pullman. I won it in a writing competition at school and it has sentimental value to me. A lot of people consider it the weakest of the trilogy, but it’s the book with the most “Will” in it, and I adore Will!
What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?
I have met so many great new people through book blogging. It has even helped strengthen a friendship that has been stretched miles apart by deserts and seas; we always have our blogs to meet and debate our books on!
