Book Blogger Hop and Follow Friday

The blog hop is hosted by Jen from Crazy for Books.

This weeks question is: What is the thing you like most about reading book blogs? Is it the reviews, author guest posts, articles, giveaways, or something else entirely?

I really love everything about book blogging. I have won a few giveaways and those are awesome, but I also love getting insight into how other people feel about books I have read and connecting with other readers. It's awesome!

Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee

This week's question: Do you have an under-noticed author that you think we should all know about?

This is a hard one, I'm not really sure what qualifies as "under-noticed" but I really think Deborah Willis, author of Vanishing and Other Stories, has an incredible amount of talent and I can't wait to read whatever she writes next.

While you're visiting my blog don't forget to enter my two awesome giveaways. The first one is for Outside the Ordinary World by Dori Ostermiller which ends today, and the second one is for Heidegger's Glasses by Thaisa Frank. Happy Friday everyone and welcome to In The Next Room.

  15. Thanks for stopping by and following.

    Sometimes I worry a little bit about spoilers too. I try to be careful when reading reviews for books I haven't read yet. Sometimes I come across spoilers though. It happens, I suppose.

    I'm an old follower. Have a great weekend!
