I’ve been a very bad book blogger about passing on awards and I’ve got some catching up to do!
Ladybug at Escape in a Book nominated me for the Literary Blogger Award. Ladybug is a frequent commenter and she writes great reviews in a variety of genres. Here are the award details:
“The Literary Blogger Award acknowledges bloggers who energize & inspire reading by going the extra mile. These amazing bloggers make reading fun & enhance the delight of reading!”
I’m passing this award on to:
Eva @ A Striped Armchair
Vasilly @ 1330V
Sheri @ A Novel Menagerie
Yvonne @ Socrates’ Book Reviews
Dar @ Peeking Between the Pages
I received the Let’s Be Friends Award from Laura at I’m Booking It. I’ve enjoyed getting to know Laura on her blog and on Twitter.
I met the bloggers I’m passing this on to on Twitter, and then found and loved their blogs:
Tasha @ Heidenkind’s Hideaway
Deborah @ Books, Movies, and Chinese Food
Debbie @ Debbie’s World of Books
Pam @ Bookalicious
Tasha at Heidenkind’s Hideaway was gracious enough to gift me with the One Lovely Blog Award. I’m passing this award on to:
Heather @ A High and Hidden Place
Raidergirl @ An Adventure in Reading
JS @ BiblioAddict
Drea @ Book Blather
Sandy at You’ve Gotta Read This awarded me the Kreativ Blogger Award. I’m supposed to list 7 things I like and 7 of my favorite blogs. You know I have way more than seven, but here goes:

4. Cooler weather
5. Good wine and good movies for Moms’ Movie Night (The movie was Bottle Shock)
