The "I Am the Reader" tag is all about stepping out from behind the screen, sharing a few personal bits, and connecting with fellow bookworms on a more human level.
Whether you've just stumbled across my blog or you've been around for a while, I thought this would be a fun way to introduce myself, talk about my reading habits, and maybe even reveal a few bookish confessions. So, pop the kettle on, get comfy, and let’s dive in.

Welcome to another Book Bloggers Round Up post! Let's see what book bloggers posted about during March.

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.
@DanSamEnd reviewed Girl Unmasked by Emily Katy. "Enlightening, empowering, and a truly important read for all. Girl Unmasked is an incredible debut; Emily’s honest and beautiful prose change the lens through which we see the world, opening our eyes to the trauma and struggles being endured and to the woefully inadequate system in place failing so many." Read the full review here.
@TStrawberryPost did The World Book Day Book Tag. Great questions including; What book character would you dress up as for World Book Day? If you could live in any book for ever, or just for a while, which would it be and why? and If you could meet any book character, who would it be? to name a few.
It's time for a book tag that shines some light on a few of those books I've been meaning to get around to.

Book tags are a fun way to share about books and discover new authors. If you're looking for some book tags to do over the summer months you're in the right place.
This post has a list of book tags each with a summer theme.

Welcome to my The Super Easy Rainbow Book Tag! This is an original tag I made up this morning. If someone else has already done the exact same tag in the past let me know so I can give them credit. There are lots of other rainbow book tags out there and they are all slightly different from each other (I'll be linking the ones I found below).
Now on to the book tag...
The rules
1. Give credit to the creator (AKA me 😉) with a link back to my post
2. Books must be from your bookshelves (physical or electronic are fine but you must own a copy of the book)
3) Have fun and tag some people to do it.
How it works
Pick a book from your collection where the chosen colour (one for each colour of the rainbow) is dominant on the cover.
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Indigo
Violet
Watch my video of The Super Easy Rainbow Book Tag here:
As this is an original tag I'm just going to tag anyone who wants to do it so consider yourself tagged.
ArrictineReads created a Rainbow Book Spines Tag which I just found out about in this video but unfortunately the original video is now set to private. The goal was to make a rainbow from the spines of books.
I also found this video of a Rainbow Book Tag where you have 2 minutes to collect as many "rainbow colour corresponding" books on your bookshelf. The color can be anywhere on the cover or spine (the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple. Each "rainbow" or stack of 6 rainbow color corresponding books is 1 point. The original video for this tag is also unfortunately no longer available.
I found the Rainbow Flag Book Tag. Original video no longer available for this one too. This one is specific to queer books.
Read the rainbow book tag. Each book you pick should have an LGBTQIA+ main character and/or an LGBTQIA+ author. There are prompts from each colour.
Another is the Rainbow Book Tag. Again original no longer available. This one has additional colours on the list.
If you know of any other rainbow themed book tags let me know.
