Here's a list of a few of my favorite book bloggers. These book
blogs may interest you if you, like me, are an avid reader. I chose
these blogs mostly based on the quality and "readablity" of their posts.
I found most of these blogs because they also have what I like to call
"booktube" channels, where they do book vlogging on Youtube.
Chapter Chicks
This pair of sisters were the first book bloggers I had ever heard of. They pretty much introduced me to the world of book blogging and vlogging when I stumbled upon their youtube channel. Then I found out about their book blog and I just fell in love. They have the same taste as me in books and on top of that, their blog is pretty amazing. It's clean, easy to navigate, and interactive, as well. Without these two, I probably would not be as prolific of a reader as I am today, to be quite honest. They really inspired me to get out of my two year reading slump and to start reading books that aren't required for class. I've read so many great books based on their recommendations, and I feel like more people need to discover them.
Audience: They mostly cater to young adult fiction, but they review whatever they find interesting and entertaining.

365 Days of Reading
I found out about Lauren's blog through a group book vlogging Youtube channel called Totally Booksessed. There is a different vlogger for each day of the week and each vlogger has their own separate blog, which proves for quite a diverse and entertaining Youtube channel. But out of all the book bloggers on this channel, I found that she was one of the more consistent bloggers
and vloggers out of the group running the channel and on top of that,
her blog is very clean, organized, and diverse in terms of the books she
reviews. Not to mention that she receives a lot of advanced reader
copies (ARC's) for review and also posts many interesting interviews of
authors.
Audience: Anyone who enjoys reading young adult fiction (YA) as well as adult fiction books.

The Story Siren
I
can't even remember how I came across the Story Siren's blog, but when I
started following her on Goodreads and watching her "In My Mailbox"
book vlogs, I became more and more interested in her book reviews. She
not only reviews well known, popular books, but also books I would have
never heard of otherwise. I also love the tab on her page titled "Book
blog tips and tricks" since I'm only just starting out in the book
blogging world and any sort of advice helps. Also, on this page she talks a lot about ARC's and how to come by them which for any book blogger is an invaluable resource.
Audience:
Most of her book reviews are on the more "fluffy" books, some YA some
not, so check out her blog if you're interested in reading more for fun.

The Readables
Okay,
so I know this isn't a blog per say, but I follow Priscilla's book
vlogs religiously. I've been subscribed to her "booktubing" youtube
channel for well over a year now, and for good reason. She reviews a
wide array of books, ranging from YA to adult fiction to classics. She
will even have themed months where she'll review books of a certain
genre and even include some movie reviews in a video each month. Not
only that, though, she has a warm personality that really comes across
in her videos and I really value her input when it comes to which books
are worthwhile to read.
Audience: Pretty much anyone who enjoys reading for entertainment. All ages included.

Elizziebooks
After
being in the book "blogosphere" for well over a year, I had heard of
Liz left and right. When I finally decided to check out her blog, I
wasn't disappointed. Her blog is concise but tells you what you need to
know about the book. It's clean and when she does a vlog review of a
book, she includes it with the written review, which to me is very
helpful. Her energy in her reviews, whether they be in video or written
format, is always infectious and she seems very passionate about
reading. I just find her blog to be a bit of fresh air.
Audience: She mostly reviews YA or action/adventure books, but she does review the occasional popular adult fiction.
