This week's theme for Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, is a Thanksgiving/Thankful freebie. I decided to list the top ten reasons I'm thankful for books and blogging about books. I'm kind of obsessed with my blog now, it's like my third child, lol. Happy Thanksgiving week to all my friends in America. Bring on the turkey and pumpkin pie!!
1. Books are always there for you, even at 2 a.m.
2. You can spend whole afternoons just browsing, you don't even have to actually read them. It's relaxing sometimes just to look at covers, plot lines and dream about reading them.
3. Covers themselves. Such beautiful artwork going into some of them, I just enjoy seeing them and deciding whether or not to read the actual book.
4. Series books....by authors you just know won't let you down. When I'm not at my best sometimes it's comforting to know I can always start the next book and feel a sense of order in the world.
5. Speaking of series books.....seeing how characters evolve and feeling like they are old friends you are checking up on.
6. Blogging about books....is there anything better?? I love promoting authors and am thankful to do my little part in that world.
7. Meeting fellow bloggers through their content. I am in awe of the things people have time to post with our busy lives. They give me great, creative ideas and I love checking in even if I'm often neglectful about commenting.
8. Feedback from bloggers. It is truly appreciated! There are so many books and authors out there I can't keep up, so I love comments and input from anyone who has insight.
9. That feeling of community we have built. We have a hobby that many don't relate to (those who horror...hate to read!) and it is so nice to know how many other book nerds are out there too.
10. Reading challenges....I need to participate in and keep up with more. They keep you fresh and engaged and I am so thankful for those who host them on their blogs.
What things in the bookish world are you thankful for? Share with me :)
