Blogger Recognition Award

I was nominated by Paulina @ The Little Book Pixie for the Blogger Recognition Award Tag! Thanks Paulina-this was a lovely surprise and really lifted my spirits.

The Blogger Recognition Award was started by Edge of Night to celebrate bloggers and show them appreciation for their contribution to the blogging community.

It's a pay-it-forward kind of deal, so read on to discover who I've nominated and read about how I started my blog and my advice to new bloggers.

Book Blogger Love-a-Thon Mini Challenge 6: The Love-a-Thon Awards!

The final mini challenge of the 2014 Book Blogger Love-a-Thon is to nominate your favourite bloggers for awards, in the style of the Grammy's or Oscars. I've always loved these type of posts as I enjoy highlighting blogs that I think deserve attention as well as discovering some new blogs to visit.

This was a really hard challenge as there are so many fantastic blogs that I visit daily that deserve an award, but I had to narrow it down to mentioning 3-5 blogs per category.

Anyway, without further ado, I would like to announce my nominations for The Love-a-Thon Awards!
*Drum-roll please*

Awards, Yay!

Out of the blue today I discovered that two fellow bloggers had bestowed upon me some fabulous awards! This may not be the Oscars but I'm pretty thrilled as it's the first time I've got an award for my humble blog.

This one was from Brooke over at Paper Mountain:


Requirements:
1. Link to the blogger who gave you the award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass the award to 15 bloggers recently discovered.
4. Notify the blogger recipients.
