Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly linkup of book bloggers hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl! This week, we’re looking at the maybe a little over-the-top things we’ve done because we love books so much!
Collected far more of them than I have room for: Just ask my poor husband, who deals with piles of books on virtually every surface in our apartment.
Started a book blog: I mean, I love books and reading so much I created a space on the internet to talk about it.
Started a book newsletter on top of my book blog: A little less than a year ago, I decided that there might be people who can’t get into the idea of checking a book blog but who might be able to get into a monthly newsletter in their inbox, so I’ve got that going on too.
Literally carry one with me 100% of the time: I carry two things with me no matter what…a koozie for my beer and a book for my brain.
Gone to a midnight release event: My sister and I went to a party for the release of the final Harry Potter book at our local Borders (RIP).
Go to a bookstore whenever I visit a new city: Anytime I go someplace new, the first thing I do is find an independent bookstore, make plans to go, and buy a new book!
Joined a book club: Speaking of indie bookstores, mine runs a book club that meets once per month and I’ve loved having a place to talk about books with people in real life!
Indulge in bookish merch: I’ve got candles, shirts, tote bags and more that were inspired by books!
Turned my insta into a quasi-bookstagram: It’s not a formal booksta, and I don’t pose anything all pretty and accessorized, but I do share what I’m reading and it’s become at least half of what I post anymore!
Got into audio: I never thought I’d be a person who listens to books, but it turns out it’s a great way to liven up my walks/drives, and get my re-reading in!
