I love these round ups! Help me to keep up with the Twitter world when I’ve been busy. I mean, let’s face it, we can’t all catch everything that happens on Twitter! I especially love all the book blog advice tags – I saw some of those on my feed but a lot were new too 🙂 I love this community! So helpful!
Holly J
Thank you for sharing my book blog advice! 🙂 I really loved that hashtag and hope it helped out newbies and older bloggers alike. Also pretty much all of those #booknerdproblems I can relate to.
