Feature and Follow: What to read next?

Feature and Follow:

F&F is a weekly blog hop that consists of book bloggers. It is hosted by Alison Can Read and Parajunkee. The rules of involvement are simple:

1.) Link up on the blog hop Linky gadget below this post, 2.) follow the hosts via their network of choice, 3.) follow the weekly featured blog(s) via their network of choice (listed as "featured" in the blog list below), and lastly, 4) check out the rest of the blogs on the hop! If you become a new follower of a blog, let them know and they will follow you back.


The F&F is a great way to network, meet other book bloggers, and gain new followers. Even more so, it's a great way to drive fun discussion on a weekly topic.

You can follow me via the options to the right!

This week's topic: How do you decide what books to read?

I look for interesting descriptions.  And the covers shouldn't be too cheesy.  I also try to vary my books and instead of just devouring all the books I'm dying to read, I also make myself read something that I might like before I can read the one I really want to read.  

Let me know if you're a new follower in the comments and I'll follow back!

    1. I think it has something to do with it feeling even more like a reward. Reading is already a reward, but then I get to read something I've been looking forward to it and it's even better!

  3. I totally judge books by their covers and add anything with a book synopsis that sounds interesting! (:

    1. I sometimes feel bad for judging a book by its cover, but I have to have some kind of criteria...

    1. Sometimes I just want the cover to have the title on it and nothing else. No people. Sometimes I like people on the cover, though. I really don't like having the movie cover of book, but have bought a few because they were cheaper and I was broke.

    1. The description is super important. I wish I had all the time to read--every day, all day--and then I wouldn't have to be so picky.

  7. LOL on reading something else before the one you really want to read. Delayed gratification. I do the same thing sometimes. New follower via G+ and Twitter.

    1. It makes it that much better! Finish reading this book, which is okay, so that you can read the last book in the series! :)
