Awards

Wow, I am always so flattered when BWN receives an award. It definitely gives me warm-fuzzies and I can't wait to pass them along to a few new bloggers I have recently stumbled upon. I try and give out awards to new bloggers or just bloggers that I haven't previsously given an award to. So here we go...

A BIG thanks to Ali at the Romantic Scholars for giving BWN the One Lovely Blog award. I'm a little slow at reciprocating (it was given early February), so without further ado, here are the recipients.


Another BIG thanks to Andrea at The Little Bookworm (who has an adorable blog, btw), for giving BWN the Beautiful Blogger award. I'm a big fan of Andrea's and was excited to see an award from her, and I love getting all her fun comments. Anyway, it was hard to narrow it down, but here are the recipients of this fun award:

1. The Book Blog
2. The Book Owl
3. A Bookful of Thoughts
4. Homespun Light
5. Exclusively Books

One Lovely Blog Award

I received the One Lovely Blog Award a few weeks back from Justine at A Bookful of Thoughts. Sorry it’s taken me so long to respond, I’ve just made it back into town and finally have time to catch up on everything. Thanks so much Justine, I was excited to receive the award!

The rules are: Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link. Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you've newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

I try and always chose blogs that I haven’t previously given an award. So, in random order the winners are:

A Heartfelt Award

A BIG thanks to Mary over at Writers Butt Does Not Apply to Me, who can also be found at Literary Girls Writing Group, for nominating Jessica and I for the Heartfelt Award!! Mary has become a great blogging buddy. She always writes wonderful reviews on her blog and leaves tons of fun comments on our blog as well. It has been fun getting to know Mary! Thanks again!

So, here it goes... "Do you reach for a cup of cocoa or tea when you're relaxing, seeking comfort, sharing a plate of cookies with family and friends? You know the feeling you get when you drink a yummy cup of cocoa, tea, or a hot toddy? That is what the Heartfelt Award is all about, feeling warm inside. Rules: Put the logo on your blog/post. Nominate up to to 9 blogs which make you feel comfy or warm inside. Be sure to link your nominees within your post. Let them know that they have been nominated by commenting on their blog. Remember to link to the person from whom you received your award."

There are so many blogs I would want to nominate over and over again. So I decided to make a list (I LOVE making lists) of all the past recipiants to make sure I don't have duplicates and to help spread the love to some of the blogs we haven't given awards to in the past. I came up with seven fantastic blogs that I love to read, have great layouts, and think they really deserve the Heartfelt award!

Great Look Award!


Thanks so much to La Coccinelle at The LadyBug Reads for this very pretty award!
This award is meant to pat on the back the ones paying particular attention to their blog presentation.

I have to note that Kathy is the mastermind behind how organized and how pretty our blog looks. She keeps me on the straight and narrow with templates so that there is continuity to our posts. On behalf of Kathy's efforts, I say thank you, thank you for this very pretty award.

Here are the rules:

1. Post the award on your blog, with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link.
2. Pass the award to 5 other blogs that your particularly like. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

Here are five bloggers who have created blogs that are very easy on the eyes:

1. Mary at Girls Literary Writing Group

2. Chantele at Always Something to Read

3. Ceri at Not in the Pink

4. Kim at Good Clean Reads

5. Brenda at Brenda Loves Books

Congratulations...you all have great looking blogs.

Let's Be Friends Award


Thanks Andrea at the Little Bookworm for this amazing award! I am totally flattered! I'm glad I've found your blog. I love reading your reviews, you have a great layout and you always leave me the best comments! Thanks again!

Blogs that receive the Let’s Be Friends Award are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers.

It was hard narrowing this down to eight, and it was also hard not giving this to a few of the blogs that I just gave some awards to. I decided I would pass this along to some of the more recent blogs that I have found (there are a few I've been following for awhile). These blogs are super cute and they havegreat reviews. So, here they are:
