It´s a rare moment when authors read your blog posts.
As a book blogger, you don´t really expect it to happen. Because it doesn´t happen to the insignificant micro bloggers ( Yupp, I just called myself a micro blogger ). Not every author goes out of their way to read what´s been written about them ( or their books ) online.
Lucky for me, though, Penelope Bloom googled herself for * cough cough * purely professional reasons ( which is awesome, if you ask me ) and spotted my blog post regarding the book covers for her Objects Of Attraction series.
Without having read the books I took it upon myself to write about them and break down why I believe the covers are actually great ( feel free to read that blog post here )
So, you can imagine how floored I was when I received a comment from Penelope Bloom.
I´m grateful for every comment left on my blog. Having a direct response from an author I talked about…
And because of this, I went out to buy `His Banana ( Objects Of Attraction #1 ).
Yes, this is me and my newly purchased `His Banana` copy. Yes, I bought the book because the author left me a wonderful and in-depth comment. It was great. It was sweet. I appreciated the reach out. I already had this beauty on my “books to read in 2020” list so I´m happy the author took some time off to respond, involuntarily helping me ignore my TBR pile so I can read her rom-com.
Penelope Bloom,
If you read this I would like to say THANK YOU. Please, keep commenting under posts written about you and your books. It´s a small act that makes a book blogger´s day/week/month. ❤
Much bookish love and many virtual hugs,
May the bananas be blessed * cough cough *
And this, my dear book – loving – friends, is another reason why I book blog.
I guess that´s all for today. I hope you enjoyed. Feel free to stalk Penelope Bloom online and leave her some much needed author love on social media ( links below ).
Until next time,
Mucho book love,

Right? I´m the same with retweets. I get excited. * hiding face * A blog comment hasn´t happened in years for my blog. I just wish more authors would do the same, you know?
