“Follow me” Blog Hops and meme’s this week


I decided to join the Blog following fun of Follow my book blog (and twitter) meme again this week. (Click the image if you want to join us).
This week’s question:  What is your usual monthly book budget?
My answer:  I don’t have a budget as I do not buy new books every month.  I buy them as I find ones I would like.


Book Blogger Hop
In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word!  This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books!  It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs to read!  To join in go to Crazy for Books for all the details.
This week’s questions is:  "If you find a book that looks interesting but is part of a series, do you always start with the first title?"
My answer:  “Absolutely.  I will never read book two or three or whatever before I have read the ones before them.  Just can’t do it.”

  2. I can dive right into the middle of a book series if the series' story
    doesn't run chronologically.

    That is to say, if each novel in a series is a stand-alone story (like Lee
    Child's Reacher novels) then I don't feel the need to start with book one.

    On the other hand, a series of books (like Richard Hatch's Battlestar
    Galactica novels) can't be read out of sequence since each new book builds
    upon the story of the previous entry in the series.

    Happy Book Blogger Hop Friday!
