My Answer:
I kinda fell into being a blogger. I had a small online book group until MSN got rid of all their groups. I needed somewhere to talk about my recent reads, therefore I started blogging briefly on wordpress, then I switched over to blogger.

  1. Hello Book Hoppers!

    There will be some major changes in the blog during this month. My blog designer is currently creating a more reader friendly design, which will include a new Book Blogger Hop logo/button.

    Starting in November there will be two co-bloggers!

  2. Blogging is such a great way to share about what we think about our reads.

  3. Btw, your changes sound exciting. I wonder what the logo will look like AND who will be co-blogging.

  6. I also always wanted to talk about my reads, but it wasn't until a teacher encouraged me that I actually started blogging! Thanks for hosting, I hope you have a good weekend!

    I'm not a big fan of wordpress! At the time I was using the free wordpress and I wasn't allowed to use widgets, like shelfari, and wasn't allowed any affiliates.

    I'll give a little spoiler, the colors will be a coffee scheme, like mocha and caramel.

  12. Everyone has talked me out of switching from wordpress to blogger. I mean EVERYONE! I just like the simpleness of blogger.

  13. I briefly tried Live Journal, but it was so unwieldy and awkward that I quickly ended up at Blogger. So much easier to use and it linked up so very nicely with my gmail account.
