Today I am participating in the Love-A-Thon hosted by Katelyn @ Kate's Tales of Books and Bands. I am so glad that she came up with this event. I have had so much fun, and have found a lot of new great blogs!
My blog inspiration is Sherri from Urban Girl Reader. I absolutely love her blog. She has Guest Posts, Author Interviews, Giveaways, Reviews, and makes the readers feel like they're apart of her blog. She probably doesn't even know this because I don't comment a lot or make it known but she is the reason why I wanted to start my book blog. I visit her blog everyday to find new great reads, authors, and giveaways.
She has had a big impact on me! So for all of you who haven't, check her out :D
I accidentally stumbled upon the "blogging world". I was searching for a book or something on google when Urban Girl Reader popped up and when I clicked the link I instantly fell in love. I spent most of my day reading all of her posts and entering her giveaways. I finally got the courage up to start my own blog and Urban Girl Reader is still the blog I visit everyday.
I want to thank all of the book bloggers out there! I try my best to follow and support as many blogs as I can no matter how big or small they are. I am a new blogger, so there are a lot of things I still don't know but am learning. I love the blogging community, it feels like a big family and everyone is so sweet! Thank you all for stopping by, I really appreciate it.

That's how I came across the blogging community! I was search for a book and someone's blog came up. I was reading book blogs way before I started blogging, so I can't remember which one. This is a great community, isn't it?
My story is similar, I was Googling a book and it just led to so many great blogs that I was so hooked into the community - eventually I got the courage to start my own. I've not heard of Urban Girl Reader, but I'll definitely head over to check her out now!
Hopping through from the Love-A-Thon, happy Friday!
Ashley @ Ashley Loves Books
That's such a lovely way to come across the blogging community! I love it and I'm sure Sherri would be thrilled to hear that you were inspiration!
But this community is just so great and I am glad that we both got a chance to join!
Commenting because of Love-A-Thon, following because I love your blog :D

Looks like you're doing an amazing job with your blog. :) I never recall coming across a blog before I had started doing book related YouTube videos, and came across it that way from talking to people. But I love that you came across it by a simple search, and here you are now. :D
I will definitely check out Urban Girl Reader! I stumbled upon blogging in the same way you did. I had no idea this world even existed! Happy love-a-thon!!
Thank you Faye for following and stopping by to comment. I love your name btw! I do agree this community is amazing :D
Thanks for stopping by Justin, and for your comment. I am really LOVING the Love-A-Thon :D I love blogs who "Vlog" on Youtube... and especially In My Mailbox Posts!
Thank you for checking her out, she is amazing! Happy Love-A-Thon!!
That's amazing that our stories are similar, I guess the blogging world wanted us to discover it ;p Happy Friday and thanks so much for stopping by!
It is an awesome community! I started my blog a couple of weeks after I starting reading Urban Girl Reader's blog.
I think so too! Thank you for stopping by my blog and commenting, I really appreciate it! Happy Love-A-Thon :D
I think it is so great that you still go back and read her blog every day! Isn't it just so crazy how some of these bloggers inspired us so much and they probably don't even know it yet!?!?
It's really great that you're a consistent reader of the blog that inspired you to start yours! I'm like that too with the blogs that have inspired me :)
Thank you Katelyn, I do think that it's amazing how much the blogs that inspire us impact our life so much! Thanks for hosting this great event and for stopping by!
That's great! I understand I just love seeing what she is going to be doing next on her blog :) It's awesome that you so that too!!
