I can hear you thinking ‘Michelle it’s not Christmas yet??’ though on the other hand I know a lot of bloggers already yell ‘IT’S CHRISTMAS’ November 1st so maybe not?
Anyway, I’ve decided that for this month I’d start a new feature/sort of campaign called: Merry Christmas Ya Beautiful Bloggers, inspired by Home Alone. Well, the name is. Other than that it has nothing to do with Home Alone.
So whatΒ is Merry Christmas Ya Beautiful Bloggers?
In multiple posts this month, I shall highlight some amazing bloggers. I’ve been very hesitant to do this all year (I’ve thought of it multiple times) because I hate the idea of people feeling left out. Of course that’s going to happen anyway, but I still want to spread some love and introduce people to some blogs that they may not know. And maybe other people will pick this up and spread the love for bloggers I missed?
Also this isn’t limited to book bloggers and the order is completely random.
Anyway, what better time to do this than Christmas? Let’s spread some love
Eve @ Twist in the Taile
π Smol lovely bean
π Will make you want to read Les Mis
π And watch all the musicals!!
π Talks a lot about (web) comics too
π Oh and podcasts too!!
π Basically if you need musical, (web) comics, podcasts and book recs Eve is the person you’re looking for
π Also talks/rants about school, LGBTQ+, feminism, politics, and other stuff
π Oh and they make lovely playlists!!
Janet @ The Storyteller
π Another lovely bean! Okay everyone’s a lovely bean

Kat @ Life and Other DisastersΒ

π Seriously if you’re looking for new tv shows and movies to watch: KAT’S YOUR GAL
π Seriously she is on top of it all (or so it seems to me haha)

π If you need contemporary recs Marie is your gal

Amber @ The Literary Phoenix
πΒ Insightful, well-thought-out posts
π Also original!
π Like she creates her own book box ideas (she chooses items for them, but doesn’t actually make them. She does link everything so you could make the box yourself)
π Like this one!
π Shares a lot of less known books
Em @ Yellow’s The Word
π First of all look at that aesthetic??
π Blogs about a variety of things. Like personal stuff, school, feminism, politics, world affairs… You name it. Now she’s busy with Blogmas**
π Very thoughtful and relatable posts
π But there are also lots of fun, cute posts
π Also blogs in French like whaaat?? #talented
π Β Is no longer looking for Herman because Elly found him*
* One time Em wanted to expres her love for German, but accidentally wrote ‘I LOVE HERMAN’ and thus Herman and our search for her soulmate begun. But recently Elly found Herman in a book so now we only need to reunite them
** Sorry that this isn’t in chronological order but I don’t work in chronological order. ANYWAY I first typed Blogman so almost a new man in Em’s life was born
So that’s the first eight! I’m not sure how many posts there will be in total. At first I thought I’d do one post a week, but I quickly realised that would not be enough haha. We’ll see!
If these blogs sound like your cup of tea, please go show them some love!
Do you follow these blogs? What are some of your favourite blogs? What makes a blog a favourite? Let me know in the comments!
This is such a cute idea! I’ve been wanting to do something similar but I never really thought of how to do it, and of course there’s always the thing about not being able to include everyone, which always holds me back!
I’ll definitely go follow many of these blogs, I’m already following quite a few of them :D
Thank you! Yeah I feel you, I’ve been struggling with how to do this a lot, but then suddenly it came to me and I just went with it haha
Yay hope you’ll enjoy them! :)
This is such a lovely post! It’s so nice to see people sharing the blogish love! I might have to be inspired by this post and write one of my own! xx
Thank you! Oh please do! :)
This is such a nice idea Michelle, thank you for featuring me! Haha Blogman ππ I can’t wait to be reunited with Herman my long lost German pal! π
Thank you! Haha I laughed so hard when I accidentally wrote that π Yess! Imagine though, one day actually meeting a German called Herman??
Haha π that would be so cool!
Oh!
<3 <3 <3

MICHELLE!?!?!? You can’t just spring such awesome kindness on me without a warning!? <3 Thank you so, so much for the kind words and for spreading the love in general. We don't do this often enough, I feel like, so you are double – no – triple the awesome!

AW MICHELLEEEEEEEEE YOU ARE THE SWEETEST, thank you so much for featuring my blog <3 <3 Also, yes, to answer your question, I am everywhere, I have eyes everywhere and you won't get rid of me, I am magiiiiiiiiic haha.
Thank you for doing this feature, it is so, so sweet of you and I can't wait to discover all of these amazing blogs (well, the ones I don't know yet :P)
You’re welcome β€β€ Haha I knew I wasn’t imagining things! As if I’d ever want to get rid of you :P

Awww <3 <3 <3
Aaaw that is such a lovely idea. Aentee rocks at reading challenges, seriously.
Thank you! Right?! She comes up with such amazing ideas
Oh wow, this is such a fantastic feature! I always love to highlight some of my favourite bloggers and I love it even more when others do it because I always discover new, incredible people to follow! I am absolutely in awe of Aentee, her graphic design and her readathons are OUT OF THIS WORLD. She’s so cool XD I love how you structured this in bullet points by the way! I can’t wait to see more of these posts <3
Thank you! Yeah same here :D There are so many amazing bloggers out there, but sometimes it’s hard to find new ones to follow
Right?! She’s so talented!
You listed so many of my favs!! I mean, obviously the Squad are my loves forever and always, but I hadn’t read any of Marie’s posts before, so I’m definitely going to follow her! This is a super cute idea, I can’t wait to get more blog recommendations from you :)
Obviously though, of all the people you mentioned on here, Herman is the #1. Hermem is my ultimate ship ;)
Happy to hear I introduced you to a new blog to follow :) Haha very true, no one can top Herman. Herman is ππ» I will go down with Hermem. If I have to find a German called Herman, who’s around Em’s age, drag him to the UK and get them to meet to make our ship happen, I will

Aww, you’re so sweet to do this! I’ve actually been wanting to do something like this for a while, so I might actually do it for Christmas or something?? And I would totally check out new blogs if I weren’t so freaking BUSY and STRESSED OUT. I can hardly keep up with my Reader as it is (aka… why I’m commenting so late). But I am a HUUUUUGE fan of Marie & her blog!! She is so sweet and amazing and I just love her so much???
LOVE this idea!!
Ahhh I feel you May! I love discovering new blogs but also,, I can barely keep up with the ones I’m already following lol
