Great Fun! I decided to join The Book Blogger Blog Hop hosted by Jennifer @ Crazy For Books. I saw a few of the bloggers on my subscription list putting up posts for it, and it seemed like great fun. I can't wait to hop around to other blogs myself. Anyhow, we were asked to tell our name and why we started book blogging, so here I go.
My name is Jazz. I started book blogging, because I realized a lot of my friends and dance students didn't seem to enjoy reading for pleasure as much as I did. I started to brain storm different ways to make reading seem as fun as it is. I thought starting a blog would be a wonderful way to do that. What if I could make the story come alive? I did a little research to find facts, movie trailers, and such. I'm also a music lover and like to listen to music while reading. Thus, I thought it would be fun to make playlists for each book. Actually, you would be surprised how often music is written about in books.
I really just discovered in the past year that there is a book blogging community. It's so great that I'm not alone. I love reading other book blogs and getting new ideas. I'm still working on posting consistently, but I feel like I'm getting better. I've made a goal to at least post once or twice weekly, and I'm doing well with that. It's very exciting to meet goals. I would love to do three days a week, but you know baby steps. I want to do a good job for my readers. I am so thankful to those of you who follow and comment. Okay, I'm babbling. I like to talk. Ha ha. Well, maybe I should say I like to write. Have fun hopping around my blog. Hope you find some good reads. Keep it shiny!
