Book Blogger Posts Round Up

A collection of blog posts by book bloggers

Welcome back for another Book Bloggers Round Up!

I introduced this feature here on the blog in May 2021 to showcase blog posts by other book bloggers and as it continues to be a popular series I've decided to continue again this year too.

Each month I'll include a wide variety of content so there's something for everyone. You'll find book reviews, interviews, discussion pieces and more...

So if you're looking for new bookish content to read and/or want to discover some new book bloggers to follow, look no further!

Why I do this feature:

Scanning through various social media feeds to find suitable content can take up valuable time and so I figured I'd make it easier and put together a collection here on the blog.

It's also a way for me to highlight some of the other great book bloggers out there and help promote books and reading at the same time.

How it works:

Each month I do a post via my Twitter, where I offer the opportunity for book bloggers to submit posts published during that month for inclusion in this round up. I do this every month.

Want to be included in future round ups? Follow my Twitter profile and keep an eye out for the submission tweet.

@ReadingLadiesBC reviewed The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown. "The Boys in the Boat is a story of competitive sport, history, and healing.

@DanSamEnd reviewed Soldiers Don’t Go Mad by Charles Glass. "Soldiers Don’t Go Mad offers much food for thought. It’s an important read raising many questions that are still relevant today. It’s gripping and eye-opening – I highly recommend." Read the full post here.

May 2023 Book Blogger Round Up

@suesconsideredt did a review for the non fiction book Wild Fell by Lee Schofield. "I borrowed a brand new copy of Wild Fell by Lee Schofield from the library. This book had been very much in demand since its publication in 2022 – so much so that extra copies must have been bought. It was Highly Commended in the James Cropper Wainwright Prize for Conservation, 2022 and won the Richard Jefferies Award, 2022." Read the full post here.

@Desilu0526 did a post 'Obsession – Must Read Stalking Thrillers' where the theme of all the books listed is stalkers. I've bookmarked this one as want to check them all out. Read the full post here.

@_forbookssake did a review for The Devil’s Advocate by Steve Cavanagh. "I had so many theories along the way, but there were so many curveballs thrown in that my theories were changing every 5 minutes. That’s one of the things I love most about Steve Cavanagh’s writing, he’s such a master at plot twists, that I know never to be too certain about my theories, because there’s bound to be something coming that will blow it out of the water." Read the full post here.

@Mehsi_Hime took part in the IN or OUT Book Tag made up of 26 prompts. Read the full post here.

@cjfriess reviewed the children's book My Brother is an Avocado by Tracy Darnton & Yasmeen Ismail. "My Brother is an Avocado is a fantastic book to help children visualise the size of a baby as it grows in the womb. It can be used to answer questions and stimulate conversations about pregnancy and the emotions that a child may be going through as they try to come to terms with a new family situation." Read the full post here.

@Behindthepages1 did a review of the book You've Reached Sam by Duston Thao. "You’ve Reached Sam has the potential to be a powerful story about overcoming the loss of a loved one. And at the start of the novel, I loved the concept of Sam and Julie maintaining their connection beyond the grave." Read the full post here.

@SueBavey reviewed The Sparrow and the Oak Tree by Jamie Jackson. "The Sparrow and The Oak Tree was an easy and enjoyable read with plenty of ‘will they won’t they’ anticipation, leading up to some spicy entanglement. If you enjoy retellings of classic stories with a twist give this one a try!" Read the full post here.

@AmorinaCarlton joined in the book tour for Magster and the Light of the Ladybird by Kit Butler with a review. "This is an adorable book. I can’t wait to hear more about Magster and her adventures. My five-year-old doesn’t yet have the patience to sit through chapter books with no pictures, but I can’t wait until I can share stories like this one with her. She was literally just telling me a fantastical tale about our own dog and how she wished she could talk. So, I know she’ll love it when she hears Magster’s tale." Read the full post here.

@flash_mama reviewed The Soulmate by Sally Hepworth. "The book was so absorbing that I was able to finish it quickly. This suspenseful mystery is the perfect rainy weekend read. However, if you are uncomfortable with the topic of death by suicide, you may want to avoid this one." Read the full post here.

@alitescape did an ARC review for Perilous Times by Thomas D. Lee. "PERILOUS TIMES is a brilliant modern retelling of Arthurian legend. It subverts the myth by using these classic characters to highlight poignant aspects of present-day culture and problems that are not limited to the west. In this version there two main points of view (POV), that of Sir Kay and Mariam. There is a more limited POV with Lancelot. Sir Kay is a Black knight of the round table. Mariam is Muslim. And Lancelot is gay and definitely not into Guinevere. There is also a minor character who is a transwoman." Read the full post here.

@cats_herding took part in the book tour for Isaac and the Egg by Bobby Palmer by sharing her review. "Oh my! I’m not sure there are many words in my vocabulary that I can use to describe how I feel about this utterly all consuming novel and without spoiling things). It left me speechless, devastated and hopeful all at the same time and Isaac and his buddy Egg have left such a mark on my heart." Read the full post here.

@ReadingLadiesBC shared her most recommended books as part of the Top Ten Tuesday meme. I love how she's divided the list into categories. Read the full post here.

April 2023 Book Blogger Round Up

@ReadingLadiesBC reviewed the non fiction Atlas of the Heart by Brene Brown. "I found this book challenging, practical, and insightful as each emotion is presented and discussed. Rather than self-help, this is more accurately defined as a glossary of emotions filled with practical examples." Read the full post here.

@cats_herding did a review as part of the book tour for The Little Venice Bookshop by Rebecca Raisin. "There is nothing that I didn’t love about this book!

It can encourage young readers to recycle their household waste in a fun way." Read the full post here.

@crafty_cay did a thought-provoking post titled The Rise of the Mega-Popular Author: Yes, I’m Talking Colleen Hoover. "If we’re all giving lip service to the same authors, who are already experiencing success, what does that mean for less well-known authors? What does that mean for us as readers?" Read the full post here.

@alitescape reviewed Funny Feelings by Tarah DeWitt. "If you enjoy contemporary romantic comedies with relatable characters, then jump on this book." Read the full post here.

@leftontheshelf1 was also part of the book tour for The Little Venice Bookshop by Rebecca Raisin. "It was set in the titular Venice and I almost felt as though I was there.

It was nice to have some kind of explanations of their actions and understand them better as characters." Read the full post here.

@BooksCozy reviewed Mrs. Covington’s by K.R.R. Lockhaven. "This was a very enjoyable and cozy read! Warmth permeates every second of this story. It’s like a fireplace has been lit and you’re always enveloped in a comforting blanket. It’s got diversity, nachos and beer, treasure hunts, capybaras, a capybara heist, light romance, misunderstood folks, found family, reading nights, song nights, dancing nights, magic, and all the goodies of a found family. What more can you want?" Read the full post here.
