After all, there are so many reviews on the books that I read already and then there's memes that everyone does and discussions that have been done before...it's hard to come up with unique content for the blog!

And yes, you should definitely go on goodreads more!

Blogging is a way to express ourselves about what we're passionate about. And as book bloggers we are passionate about books. So you're not crazy! You, me, and the rest of us bloggers are all totally normal! It's those other people that don't LOVE to read and are obsessed with what they read that are the crazy ones! So not normal! ;)<br /><br />I find that I don't talk a whole lot about myself either on my blog. But I do share some things about myself. Like how I am struggling to be an author. I have one book done, but have yet to get my game back together to write my second one. Also, it keeps bugging me about which direction to take it in. Really annoying sometimes...hence why I keep reading and being a "bad" writer.<br /><br />Good luck with your resolutions! And remember, we're normal with our crazy obsession about books! The "others" are not quite so normal. ;)<br /><br /><a href="http://jessica-agreatread.blogspot.com/2014/01/teaser-top-ten-tuesdays.html" rel="nofollow">Here's my Tuesday post</a><br /><br />Have a <a href="http://jessica-agreatread.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">GREAT</a> day!<br /><br />Old Follower :)Jessica @ a GREAT readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07554254368211246669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193438255559880183.post-86629643173354121182014-01-07T11:19:10.616-08:002014-01-07T11:19:10.616-08:00Never feel bad for loving or obsessing over books!...Never feel bad for loving or obsessing over books!! I do know how you feel, however. I am very thankful that there are people on the internet that share in my book obsession and that I have them to talk to when I need to fangirl. There's no one in real life that I know that like to read what I read. Thank goodness for the internet!<br /><br />This is a great list of resolutions! I share a lot of the same with you!Christy @ TheReaderBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01685095896828655217noreply@blogger.com
