    Thanks for sharing these posts! I’m going to check out Parajunkie’s post as I missed it. And I want to read My Shelf Confessions’ as well because this is something I’ve asked myself…and argued over with my oldest daughter. 🙂 I loved Carmel’s Reasons Why You Read.

    I’m guilty of all the things Parajunkee lists and The Perpetual Page Turner.

    No wonder people like to say I’m tolerant. Even if I don’t spend much money (because I’m a weirdo and only spend up to what? 99 cents?).

    Thanks for sharing our posts (and linking to our own recaps)! I love posts like these where bloggers can share some linkage love 🙂

  5. Carmel @ Rabid Reads

    I’m guilty of practically e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g that’s on PJ’s top 10 list, however I’m torn about Nose Graze’s follow back article. I agree with some of the points she makes, but not all of ’em. To each their own I guess! Happy Friday ladies, and thanks for helping to spread the bookish love. 🙂

      I’m with you, follower count is important. Unfortunately, a blogger isn’t taken seriously unless they have a certain number of followers. So both followers *and* interaction are important.
