One of my favourite things about this feature is that I discover new bloggers through my networking and recruiting for this series; I discovered Jessica’s blog and never looked back!  Her posts are thoughtful and we have the same taste in books!

I am so excited to welcome Sue to my blog this morning!  She was one of the first bloggers that I started following when I started my own blog; a fellow crime fiction lover like me, readers can find tons of amazing recommendations on her blog! Sue came up with her blog name because she works nights so while others are listening to music, she is listening to audiobooks.  She literally reads from dusk until dawn!    She is also a huge supporter of other bloggers on social media.  Basically, she is fantastic!

Discussion Series: How I Balance Books, Blogging and Life (Part 1)- My Book Blogger Routine

Screen Shot 2017-01-04 at 5.43.21 PM

Last week, I put a call out for any burning questions about how I balance my blog, the amount of books I read and general life (you can check that post out here). I got so many questions!  Thank you!  I will be putting together several posts discussing the answers, but, to start, I figured I would talk about My Book Blogger Routine.  Annie at The Misstery asked this question (and decided to start her own post related- you can check that out here!).

Like Annie,  I decided to split this into two different routines: one for weekdays and another for weekends.  And, to simplify, I do not have any children.   I do work full time.   I am a teacher, so basically, at this point in the year, I am struggling hard.  One more week until summer…one more week until summer; I teach at an alternative school so technically I work throughout the summer too, but it is a lot lighter.  So I am looking forward to the break!

Without further ado, keep reading to check out my blogger routine and to get a glimpse into my blogging balance!
