I found it interesting that we share the same taste in reading books and blogs. Do you have a black dress in your closet and a motorcycle in your garage? I bet you love tofu too? I think this can only mean one thing: We are BBF you know!
The randomly picked winners are:

And this one made me laugh out loud. Cate said, '…at the risk of sounding like a teacher's pet, I only read your blog, so I can't put anything else here!'
Thank you for the shout out to these wonderful books and blogs. Feel free to add more in today's comment section. Secondly, I didn't list all the books and blogs mentioned as I ran out of time. To see the complete list check yesterday's comments.
Thanks again and happy reading.
Note——–
I do not know why some blogs linked and others did not. I copied and pasted them as you wrote them in the comment section. Therefore it is not by my choice if some have a link attached.
The books and blogs noted with an * means they were mentioned more than a few times.
