86. Write a review for 5 books

I love to read, so the idea of writing book reviews appealed to me, especially because I often use the reviews on B&N.com as well as Amazon.com when I'm looking for a new book to read.

After I wrote my first review for Room and quickly followed with Only Mine, I stumbled upon a book review blog! I had no idea such a thing existed, and I spent several hours skimming through the blog to see what she thought of books that I also loved.

The next morning, I started my own blog. For Love and Books. I set up a Goodreads Account, A Twitter account and a new Amazon account.

The coolest thing about this whole process? I have been blogging for a month, and I have already received four  ARC books! (Advanced Readers Copy) from publishers!! (Unsolicited! So they contacted me, said "We like your blog" and gave me books to read and review!)

I don't know what my future as a book blogger holds, but I am hopeful that I can keep this up and continue to blog about the books I'm loving! (It's also inspired me to up my reading total, having read 11 books in August compared to my usual 4 or 5 in a month.)
