| Day 1 of Book Blogger Appreciation Week: Appreciate! |
It’s Book Blogger Appreciation Week! This is my first time participating in this event, I’ve been looking forward to it for weeks. I’m always on the hunt for more book blogs to fall in love with.
On Day 1, today, we’re to share with our readers some of the blogs we enjoy.
The first blog I’ll mention is The Classics Club:
The Classics Club was started on March 7 , 2012 by Jillian at A Room of One’s Own. Her goal was to, “unite those of us who like to blog about classic literature, as well as to inspire people to make the classics an integral part of life.” She thought about several ideas but finally settled on inviting people to make out a list of (at least 50) classic titles they intend to read and blog about within the next five years. After a few months, the club grew, and it was decided to create a separate site to house everything related to The Classics Club. And this blog was born!
FYI: Jillian’s blog A Room of One’s Own is one of my favorites, and through The Classics Club blog you can find many many other awesome folks that love to read the classics!
A few blogs that I love to read because they are smart, funny, clever, bookish and awesome are:
The Relentless Reader
