Feature & Follow Friday

Posted on 18:58 by Unknown


Feature & Follow Friday is a blog hop that is designed to provide some much-appreciated exposure to the bloggers participating, and to expand their following. Hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read, each of whom feature a chosen blog for the week, it's an interesting way to get to know one another.





Question of the Week: Do your reading habits change based on your mood? Do you read a certain genre if you are feeling depressed or happy?



I wouldn't say that particular moods drive my reading habits into a particular genre, but they do tend to sway me between genres. When I'm a bad mood, whatever I'm reading tends to lose its appeal and I need to do a complete genre switch (i.e from fantasy to techno-thriller, or sci-fi fantasy) to to get back on track, before returning to that book sometime later.



Parajunkee also hosts a Social Hop for Facebook and Twitter, which I regularly take part in. So, if you're one of those people who aren't on Blogger, or who just don't like Google Friend Connect, it's a great way to keep in touch and follow one another.

18 and Over Book Blogger Follow is a weekly feature that begins on Fridays and runs through the weekend hosted by Crystal from Reading Between the Wines and Kelly at Secrets of a Book Lover. This one is aimed primarily at bloggers and books for the 18 and over crowd.


Question of the Week: 
Please share three books that are in your review pile (and unread) right now. 



In keeping with the spirit of the hop, I'm going to go with a few selections from my darkest shelves . . .
