Follow Friday (4)

Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View and is a fun way to find out about new blogs. Follow Friday takes place (as you can probably tell) every Friday.


This week's question is from Jess at Gone With The Words. The questions is:

How did you come up with your blog name?

To which I answer:

I'm not really sure. I remember thinking about what I should name it and I wanted it to be catchy but different. One of my friends was obsessed with the word "beast" so that might have been on my mind. I finally decided that "Beastie Books" was both catchy and different. And thus the name stuck.

Follow Friday (3)

Follow Friday is a weekly occurrence hosted by Parajunkee's View and is a great way to discover new blogs. This week's featured blogger is Amanda from Another Book Junkie. Her question is: 

Do you have an under-noticed author that you think we should all know about?

My answer: I don't think I know of an under-noticed author. I get most of my book recommendations from other blogs so most people already know about them. 

Book Blogger Hop (2) + Follow Friday (2)

Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Crazy For Books and takes place every Friday through Monday. It's a great way to become aware of different blogs and answer fun questions. This week's question is:

"What is your favorite book cover?"

My answer: This is a very hard one because as we all know there are a million pretty covers out there. But I would have to say that at the moment my favorite cover is Sweetly by Jackson Pearce. It's not out yet, but come on, how can you not love that cover?

Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View and, unlike the Blog Hop, only takes place on Friday. There's no Featured Blogger this week or question to be answered. Therefore, have a happy Follow Friday! 

Book Blogger Hop (1) + Follow Friday (1)

Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Crazy For Books. The Hop takes place every week Friday through Monday, and is pretty much a way to see different blogs and answer bookish questions. This weeks question is: 

"Since Thanksgiving is coming up next week, let's use this week's Hop to share what we are most thankful for and what our holiday traditions are!"

My answer: I am most thankful for my family who is always there to support me and my friends. And of course all the awesome people at my local library who put up with me. My Thanksgiving tradition is pretty much just having family over for lunch/dinner.

Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View and works much the same way as the Book Blogger Hop as far as there being a weekly question, except Follow Friday is just on Fridays. This weeks question (brought to us by Ginger at GReads) is:

How long have you been book blogging??

To which my answer is: Not long. I started blogging in September of 2010. So only a couple of months.
