Blog Hop 9/10 - 9/13

Posted by IngridLola at 6:08 PM

Those coming through as part of this week's Blog Hop, welcome to

The Blue Bookcase!

Book Blogger Hop

This week, we have been asked to direct you to a favorite post or review that we have written in the past three months. I'm definitely going to cheat here and post a few links. Feel free to visit any that strike your fancy.

"Attention Bookish Public": We are looking for some more reviewers here at The Blue Bookcase! This post details the kind of person we are looking for. Please go check it out, and shoot us an email if you are interested in joining our little team!

So far we've featured some guest reviews from a few girls who have shown interest in writing for our site, and we're looking for feedback to help us decide which ones to keep as regular reviewers! Please visit their reviews and let us know what you think:

Kara's review of The Girl With the Dragoon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
& Meagan's review of A Countess Below Stairs by Eva Ibbotson

... and more guest reviews to come these next few weeks!

Here are few other favorite reviews we have posted within the last three months:

Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy (reviewed by me, Ingrid)
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou (reviewed by Connie)
Flipped by Wendlin Van Draanen (reviewed by Leisl)

And lastly but most importantly, it's Connie's birthday on Saturday!! If it weren't for Connie this site would not exist ... everyone wish her a happy birthday!

Hi there. Just stopping by from the hop. I'm wondering if I should check out your review of Larsson's book, as I'm currently reading it. Hmmm.... Have a good weekend.

HI! I'm a new follower from the blog hop! I love Kara's review, but I may be biased because I've read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and I could totally relate to the post (especially the part about it being really hard to get into in the beginning!) and it was harder for me to relate to the other review...I don't really think it's a book I would read myself, nothing against the writing of the review. Not sure that helped! :)
