The Versatile Blogger Award!

A couple days ago I received yet another award....make that two awards that I'm excited about!
First, I'll thank the people who gave me the awards: Amanda from Another Book Junkie and Morgan from The Paperback Princess! Thank you so much girls!!
I've had a great week in the booking world!

So here's what I'm supposed to do:
1. Thank and link back to the person who gave you this award. (check)
2. Share 7 things about yourself. (check)
3. Pass the award along to 15 bloggers who you have recently discovered and who you think are fantastic for whatever reason! (In no particular order...)
4. Contact the bloggers you've picked and let them know about the award


7 things about myself:

  2. I love to cook.
  3. I am obsessed with how things work.
  4. I think the most interesting part of most CSI & other crime shows are the autopsy parts.
  5. I hate hate hate hate spiders and bugs, period. Just, UGH. DIE.
  6. I have a habit of not getting too attached to people.
  7. I'm currently writing 3 books and I'm saving a book I have in mind to write during NaNoWriMo.

15 Bloggers I'm passing this to:

Well, here's a Bodacious Award.

Well, let me say that I am happy & surprised to have an award! I know that there are maybe three people who are loyal readers who I love, but to get an award? Shut the front door! (Or as my brother says, STFD. Yes, the letters.)
I'm quite honored and feel like I have something huge to uphold! So, I'll try super hard to make this blog better to gain more readers and keep the ones I have!
I won this award from one amazing blogger, Amanda from Another Book Junkie. Because of the rules, I can't give it back to her. So I'm going just say thank you!

And those rules are:
If you are given this award you must first accept it by leaving a comment on the post you were nominated on. Then copy and paste the post and add it to your own blog. Make a list of the last 5 books you read and pass the award on to 5 other bloggers (no backsies!). Please also identify the blog from which you got the award and don’t forget to tell your picks that they have a blog award!

The last five books I read were:
  1. Amy & Roger's Epic Detour by: Morgan Matson (review)
  2. Two-way Street by: Lauren Barnholdt (review)
  3. Bleeding Violet by: Dia Reeves (review)
  4. Something Like Fate by: Susane Colasanti (review)
  5. The Boy Next Door by: Meg Cabot (review)

    The five bloggers I pass this award to are:
    1. Marie from Marie Loves Books.
    2. Kate from I Just Want to Sit Here And Read.
    3. Tori from The Book Faery.
    4. Anna from Book Nerds.
    5. Melina from Reading Vacation.

    So follow all these people & tell them I sent you! :)
