Today, we're directed, "...let’s talk about that book you know, the one you discovered only because you read about it on a book blog and then you realized you couldn’t live without it! And then you read it and you loved it so hard! Tell us about it and about the blogger (or bloggers!) that introduced the book to you!"
I admit, I don't often remember who recommended a book to me when I've read about it on a blog. There are just so many bloggers to keep track of all the recommendations. But amongst the books I might not have heard of or come across or bothered reading were it not for other book bloggers' enthusiastic recommendations:
- The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins--too many book bloggers raved about this YA book and I forget whose review pushed me over the edge.
- Nothing But Ghosts by Beth Kephart--Amy of My Friend Amy encouraged us all to go out & buy this one during its first week of release, and without that recommendation and push from Amy, it would probably still be on my wish list.
- Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman
- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

Practical Magic is a movie I always enjoyed, does the book have that same idea to it as the movie? Or are they completely different?
Amy was responsible for my reading Nothing But Ghosts, too and I'm so glad I read it!
I've read all but Practical Magic! The other three are all great books!
I, too, have been bitten by the bug to read The Hunger Games. I have read so many wonderful reviews on it and seen so much excitement that I am going to try and get to it very soon.
Everyone I know is raving about the Hunger Games - it's on my TBR pile!
By the way, thanks for your comment on my BBAW post (I love and can relate to the image of you reading in your sauna/van)!
