Bloglovin' Hop & Giveaway


Follow on Bloglovin

If you haven't noticed already, I recently added Book Sniffers Anonymous to the Bloglovin' site. I have been a little nervous with Google and all of their changes. No one seems to know exactly what all the changes are going to mean for GFC users but it doesn't look good. I must say that I'm a fan of Bloglovin' though. The news feed is similar to GFC and easy to navigate.


You can put the blogs you follow in certain categories. So for me I follow both book blogs and food blogs. I can click on the "foodie" category to pull up just the food blogs that I follow without having to scroll through all the cover releases and book reviews, when all I want to do is drool over pictures of food.The reason why I'm head over heels in love with this feature? Because when I switched all the blogs I follow via GFC to Bloglovin (if they have an account), I found a ton of blogs that I didn't even know I was following! I get so overwhelmed sometimes by my feed of random followings that some blogs get overlooked. Now, I have everything categorized and I can easily scroll through the blogs I want to read.


I also like that you can mark a post as read (or when you click on the post it's automatically marked as read) and it disappears from your news feed. So if I start to go through my feed and am pulled away before I can get to everything, I don't have to remember where I left off, the site does it for me. There's also a "Like" feature that will save the blog posts that you've "liked" and sort of archives them for you so you can read them later on.


So if you are a member of GFC, you may want to look into Bloglovin' to see if this will be a good backup for you if Google does decide to give GFC the axe.

The Bet
By: Rachel Van Dyken
Genre: New Adult/Romance
Goodreads | Amazon | B&N

"I have a proposition for you..."
Kacey should have run the minute those words left Seattle millionaire Jake Titus's mouth. Instead, she made a deal with the devil in hopes of putting her past behind her once and for all.
Four days.
She could do four days!
But she wasn't counting on Jake’s older brother Travis being there to witness their farce of an engagement.
One thing is for certain.
One brother is right for her.
One wants a lifetime.
And one is in league with the devil.
She should have gotten Jake’s signature in blood.


Suddenly Royal
By: Nichole Chase
Genre: New Adult 


Samantha Rousseau is used to getting her hands dirty. Working toward a master’s degree in wildlife biology while helping take care of her sick father, she has no time for celebrity gossip, designer clothes, or lazy vacations. So when a duchess from the small country of Lilaria invites her to dinner, Samantha assumes it’s to discuss a donation for the program. The truth will change the course of her life in ways she never dreamed.

Alex D’Lynsal is trying to keep his name clean. As crown prince of Lilaria, he’s had his share of scandalous headlines, but the latest pictures have sent him packing to America and forced him to swear off women—especially women in the public eye. That is, until he meets Samantha Rousseau. She’s stubborn, feisty, and incredibly sexy. Not to mention heiress to an estate in his country, which makes her everyone’s front-page news.

While Sam tries to navigate the new world of politics and wealth, she will also have to dodge her growing feelings for Alex. Giving in to them means more than just falling in love; it would mean accepting the weight of an entire country on her shoulders.

Marrying the Master
By: Chloe Cox
Genre: Erotica

A man she's loved for years.

A marriage of necessity.

An impossible situation.

Lola Theroux wanted Roman Casta the moment she saw him. She knows she isn’t special in that regard—every woman wants Roman Casta the moment she sees him. But Lola is the only one who knows why Roman doesn’t do relationships, and she knows that he’ll never see her as anything other than his best friend’s little cousin—he’ll always be her protector, never her lover. Even after five years of working together running New York’s exclusive Club Volare, she’s never caught his eye, and never had a chance to show him her submissive side.

Until a campaigning politician targets Club Volare, and the only way to save the club is to get married—to Roman.

Now they’ll have to fool the public, the press, and their friends into thinking they’re in love and in lust. For Lola, that isn’t the hard part. The hard part is pretending to be Roman’s sub without falling for a man she knows she can’t have.

  4. Thanks for the info... I NEVER read instructions or information, until something doesn't work right. I didn't know there was a like button. I just click on a post I'm intersted in or save the email, to go back to later... Wow, this is going to help me to clean out my email.

    Sorry. I tend to ramble. I just started following your blog. Check mine out, if you get a chance.
