I did this in the beginning of my book blog and have since realized it sucks. The same ppl comment on blog every week, and THOSE are the ppl I appreciate most. <br /><br />Libraries are the bomb!Smash Attack Ashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459323734201391878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113209008247098872.post-22651387621668491122011-04-22T17:53:13.228-07:002011-04-22T17:53:13.228-07:00I completely agree!

I'...I completely agree! Libraries are awesome! <br /><br />I'm a pretty new blogger and I don't get a lot of stuff either. And I have to admit, it gets really annoying when everyone comments on your contest giveaways but not the book reviews that you worked really hard on. I had a giveaway a couple weeks ago and I got a whole bunch of followers-- but no more comments than I usually get. It's frusterating. The point of book blogs are the books, not the giveaways. <br /><br /> Good job on having the guts to do such a assertive, up-front post. Hopefully people will respond to it.The book girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03938416026231746612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113209008247098872.post-55743374211275313982011-04-22T15:37:23.086-07:002011-04-22T15:37:23.086-07:00Go libraries!

I have a giant TBR pile to keep me busy in the mean time. But I do love getting books ahh how awesome a feeling it is. But those I don't get yup library for sure.

Just trying to let people know that we (bloggers) do use our libraries. I may have a ranted a bit. I was bored:)<br /><br />I love you longtime too, and I know that you work your ass off on your blog and I appreciate that. I get unsolicited books, not many, but they pop up every so often. Again, not to beat a dead horse, I want my readers to know that some of the books I review are from library. <br /><br />I loved your comment btw, this is what I'm talking about. Let's start a discussion if I screw up:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10717707372283581208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113209008247098872.post-59745965824592244832011-04-21T04:25:43.665-07:002011-04-21T04:25:43.665-07:00Hi Laura, I too am a library lover.

But because with the rising cost of food, fuel and other living expenses my budget is suffering. Books are a luxury. The Library is my savior! <br /><br />Even though I don't comment a great deal, I do read your blog. Thank you for the reminder I should comment more. :D <br />JenniferMy Life With Books - Jennifer K Jovushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03556830006820975892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113209008247098872.post-81718672469777390252011-04-20T22:12:42.141-07:002011-04-20T22:12:42.141-07:00Good post Laura!

I am a blogger who gets TONS of ARCs and that isn't my fault, I don't get solicited things show up at my post office unannounced. I don't ask for 2/3 of what I get at least. I work VERY hard on my blog as well and social media and marketing and I am good at what I do so I think that is why I do get things. I still use my library and I support them and my local indie in a thousand different ways. I know you probably didn't mean to sound contrite but it does and after seeing it linked twice on twitter I just wanted to say that to you because I like you and I think you can handle it :DPam Phohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190817860987781775noreply@blogger.com
