Weekly Geeks and the Premios Dardo/Primo Darios Award
Weekly Geeks this week is about telling fellow readers about your favorite book blogs. Then I was awarded the Premios Dardo award (also called the Primo Darios Award) by three different bloggers: Tuesday in Silhouette, Rose City Reader, and Jackets and Covers. So I better get busy telling you my favorites!
This award “acknowledges the values that every blogger shows in his or her effort to transmit cultural, ethical, literary, and personal values every day.”
Well, I try to!
I could turn around and give this award to those who gave it to me. I could list my entire blogroll. I’ve mentioned some of my favorite blogs before. I’m going to share 15 blogs I haven’t shared before. So without further ado, here are fifteen blogs I haven’t mentioned before who write and read good stuff.
- A library is a hospital for the mind…
- Age 30 — A Year of Books
- Bermudaonion’s Weblog
- books i done read
- book-a-rama
- caribousmom
- carp(e) libris reviews
- Chain-Reading
- The Curious Reader
- Everday Reads
- Maw Books Blog
- Out of the Blue
- Rob Around Books
- So Many Books
- The Bluestocking Society
I’ll have a winner for my giveaway tomorrow. And I’m feeling a little reading burnout, so I may or may not have another review by the end of the week. (Do you ever get that?)

- Dare I do it? I'm starting blogging again -- but I suspect I'll be a little different from now on http://bit.ly/bbKvZx
- My son's obsession has been Goldilocks and the 3 bears. This morning he's playing "Blue's Clues and the 3 Bears." Hmmm...
- I spent way too long this a.m. taking apart my dishwasher to clean the filter. I'm hoping that cleaner dishes make the effort worth it.

Thank you so much!
I’m so flattered that you included me in your list!
I definitely get reading burnout. That’s when I watch movies or TV or do something crafty or try a really elaborate recipe. Usually after a few days I’m ready to go back to books!
Thank you for including me in your list! I’m very, very flattered.
And I get reading burnout too. When I do, I just need to take a break from reading and/or blogging. After a few days, I’m usually back to books.
How exciting to see myself on this list! I consider your blog a “must-visit.” If I ever get burnt out from reading books, then I usually end up watching movies based on books. I do have a couple of DVDs of Smallville waiting to watch. I’ve never watched it before and it seems like something I would like. It will cut into my reading time though, especially if I get addicted!
So, last night, I watched some of the A&E Pride and Prejudice….It’s making me want to reread the book, but it is a nice break from reading!
Rebecca, thank you so much for the blog award. Yours is truly one of my favorite blogs. I love your thoughtfulness (in blogging and in giving awards).
Jessica, thanks! I’m blushing…
