Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): Kiss From a Rose by Seal.
As I'm sure you all know by now, Book Blogger Appreciation Week (BBAW) is now well under way (no I did not make the finals, but really, the true honor was to be nominated. Thank you so much). Go head over there now, since voting only lasts a week (don't worry, I will be here as your friendly end-of-the-week reminderer) :)
But here I want to do something new again. There are a ton of amazing blogs I have never heard of on BBAW (thank you for nominating them!) but there are many absolutely astounding ones I did not see there. I don't think word has fully spread about them yet. I'm here to help do that. ^_^
I don't know how often I will do these, but rest assured, I am scouring the internet for amazing blogs for you. For the debut, I'm kicking it off with one of my absolute favorites: Tales of Whimsy.
Amazing, funny, thoughtful, extraordinarily thorough, there isn't a single thing I don't love about Tales of Whimsy. And I must say, she has one of the coolest review systems I've ever seen. I am extremely sensitive to violence, gore, sexuality, cruelty, language etc. so her "kiddie-o-meter" has become absolutely invaluable to me. Her other qualifiers are hilarious and equally helpful (here is a sample review of Beastly by Alex Flinn to give you a taste). And at only 100 followers, hers really is not one to be missed, or overlooked. I would highly suggest you take a look over there. Like, right now.
P.S - I love her "share worthy" where she quotes a passage from the book. It's awesome because you get a taste for the style of writing and the story. So cool.
