Hey friends! Welcome and thank you for visiting Between the Bind, where we read, review, and introduce new books and authors for your novel-lovin' pleasure! If you've been here before, I'm so happy you returned! And if you're new to my little blogging corner, I hope you enjoy it enough to follow along for more than just today. :)
Blog Star is hosted by the loverly Mrs. Monologues (follow her - she's freaking fabulous!) and introduces bloggers from across the blogosphere to connect with other new and unique blogs focused on a variety of topics. Blog word-vomit. haha! If you'd like to be a part of Blog Star, go ahead and link up HERE and start visiting some awesomeness. :) Now to a little about me.
1. Hiya! I'm Jenna Lynne, Jenna, or JL (yeah I know, JL is lazy type). *wave*
2. Reading is "the other man" in my life (umm and can we just stare at those book shelves?! Shelf porn! Is that a thing? Like food porn?). My goal with starting this blog was to *hopefully* help you fill the next spot on your bookshelf...with maybe a little awesomesauce thrown in. ;) I enjoy reading indie authors and introducing you to books you may not have heard of otherwise - although I read (and love) mainstream authors too! :)
3. These are my furbabies, Bella and Maddox. They are spoiled and crazy, just how I like 'em. *squeeze!*
4. I am obsessed with coffee. I ADORE it in all of its forms - although my newest obsession is dark chocolate covered coffee beans. If you haven't, you should.
5. Peonies. I just wanna stick my face in 'em!
6. I gravitate toward books that take me into a world unique from our own. I read a lot of paranormal romance, urban fantasy, mature YA, but I also love me some romance and erotica - sometimes you just need a little spank in your life! (I just snorted at that last sentence...now you know that I'm corny and snort. *high five*).
7. I am OBSESSED with braids. I love them. I used to try a new one every week before blogging and teaching (lovingly) took over my life - now I just have braid envy. :)
I hope you come on back to hang out and tell me what your newest reads are or just to laugh with me on Wahoo! Wednesday's!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I will definitely be adding you as I'm always looking for reading suggestions and it seems like I'll find them here. :)
ReplyDeleteHey Micah - you're awesome! :) I'm so glad you stopped by! I hope you can find something to add to your shelf.

#3 Oh, Bella and Maddox. I had a schnauzer named Leonard that has gone to be with the Lord that looked just like them.
ReplyDelete#4 AMEN
#7 will you come braid my hair?
Thanks for stopping by my place, I try to broaden my horizons with folk that are different from my norm and I think you fit into the "avid reader" category. I expect you to tell me what I should be reading :)
#3 Awwe Leonard I'm sure was a dollbaby. :)
Delete#4 *smiles*
#7 Yes please! :) I braid 5-year-old hair often and am in major need of some adult hair braiding...although I've gotten rather good at braiding straight with a wiggley bug in front of me. :)
My pleasure for stopping by - and I'll be by again soon! :) *hugs*
So glad you linked up! I am coffee obsessed too!

Yay! Life is always a bit brighter with a great book. :)
DeleteYour self description cracks me up! All of it. I am currently reading 50 Shades, so "sometimes you need a little spank in your life" literally made me LOL.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! And thanks for the sweet comments! My momma made me the scarf I am wearing in the picture....I have about 5 of them, all different colors, and still need more :)
I look forward to some great book recommendations! I love all kinds of books, but sometimes I just don't know how to pick them. Ha!
hehe! :) And 50 Shades was AMAZING! To all the haters - I've got a twitchy palm for you... ;)
DeleteSo happy that you've stopped by and your mom makes gorgeous scarfs! Etsy store?
Your blog is adorable! I always tell my friends puffy hearts haha.
ReplyDeleteAwwe, Erica, thank you! :)
DeleteI love puffy hearts. They just seem cuter than regular hearts.
I can't wait to see the books you recommend. And yes, there is something about a shelf full of books that does it for me too. I love the idea of a cozy library surrounded by floor to ceiling books. I think I would never leave.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by from Blog Star.

DeleteNice to meet you! Thanks for stopping by my blog, and I can't wait to see the books you recommend ... you know, since I'm an obsessive reader like you :)
ReplyDeleteI love your obsessive readerness - you rock! :) Thank you for coming by!
