Lately, I have found myself just having time to post my albeit not very long book reviews, I don’t think I have posted anything but a book review and the occasional author interview for quite a while. This is mainly due to time restrictions and I’m really having a great time reading so many awesome books that’s just mainly what I have wanted to focus on.
However at the start of the year while I was still having the inspiration to be extremely organized I sat down and wrote myself a whole lot of things I did want to include for the year. So instead of letting them sit in my draft pile not to be touched for the foreseeable future, I have decided to compile them into a post in case anyone else liked the idea. I find with discussion posts especially everyone has such a different take or differing opinion that it’s great to see just what everyone else is thinking on differing topics. So here is a list of a whole heap of things to maybe include on your book blog and if you have any other ideas comment below!
- A book review! I guess this is the most obvious one, review a book you have recently read.
- Participate in a readathon. There are so many readathons throughout the year with so many different aspects included.
- Participate in a Bookish Meme. There are so many different Meme’s to participate in every day of the week! Check out this to see a master list of different Memes.
- Participate in a reading challenge. This could be something like an A – Z challenge of authors or maybe just reading different books outside of your comfort zone.
- Participate in a Book Tag. You don’t have to be tagged to participate, just choose one that interests you and go for it! Here is a list of 100 different book tags.
- Let everyone know a little about yourself, dedicate a post to you, your hobbies interests anything you think someone might want to know.
