Alex @ Coffeeloving Bookoholic

Dear Alex, your kind comments always make me smile! I admire so much your positive energy and the passionate way you write on your blog (which has such a cool name) with lots of personality and honesty. I will not forget how broadly I smiled when you left such sweet comments on my posts when I decided to take a break and how warmly you welcomed me back – I was actually quite touched. I hope to get to know you even better with time, you are such an awesome person and I would love to be friends with you!

Darque Dreamer @ Darque Dreamer Reads

Dear Darque Dreamer, I remember you were among the first blogs I followed, and you have been so supportive since! You made me feel welcome when I was (still am) new, and I appreciate it so much! You are a very thoughtful and kind person and I loved the message you left on my mental health break post! Also, you have a great taste in books and I’m always checking to see if I will get inspirations for my TBR! Your reviews are really great, and your blog is absolutely gorgeous! And your Instagram makes me drool…

The Orangutan Librarian

First of all, I love your blog so much! When I first accessed it I remember giggling and thinking “This is awesome, so creative!” You’re so funny and sweet, and your reviews are always honest without being unkind, and such fun to read! You always take time to leave kind comments and I appreciate it so much. I love your personality and your blog is an inspiration.

Katie @ Never Not Reading

I remember visiting your blog the first time, I was a newbie and I was so nervous to leave a comment to you! Hahaha Your blog looks so professional and I was afraid to come off as dumb. Anyways! I always get really great book recommendations to you (I still need to read Landline, but I LOVED Fangirl!), and you are always very sweet and positive, I admire you so much!

Shannah @ Bionic Book Worm

Your posts are always very interesting and thought-provoking, and I appreciate so much the thoughtfulness of the comments you leave! I find awesome your blogger spotlight posts and how you make an effort to give people a space to be appreciated. Thank you so much for making me smile and being such a great person!

It was difficult to choose just 5, so I might do this post another time with other great bloggers. My special mentions:
