[Miscellaneous] Awards/Tags — The Brotherhood of the World Bloggers Award

Miscellaneous is the tagline to store random posts that don’t really belong elsewhere. They may involve tags, awards, challenges, and other book blogging nonsense.

First off, I’d like to thank everyone who read my recent think aloud piece on “Love Triangles Are Not Actually Triangles”. The responses have been extremely forward-thinking and I’m really digging the dialogues being started.

I was nominated for this award like…a year ago?…by Rachel @ Confessions of a Book Geek and Genesis @ Sparkling BooksI’m sure you already know that it’s my mission to complete all these tag/awards. Thank you, Rx., my favourite medical prescription and Genesis, which is a wicked name!

I thought about leaving this as the “Sisterhood” of the World Bloggers Award but then I figured hey…I can think of enough dudebros to start some shenanigans with. Alas, this was born. No, but seriously, this brotherhood will only last after this current round of nominations LOL. Which is why I also tagged the ladies as well.


Award Details:

Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award is an award that recognises the unique voices of women (and men?!) across the world and I feel quite overwhelmed at having been nominated for it.

[Think Aloud] – #13 – Love Triangles Are Not Actually Triangles

Think Aloud explores book-related discussions encompassing reading, writing, blogging, and perhaps newsworthy content. The focus is to push the boundaries, stretch the mind, and encourage dialogue within this community. Let’s all think out loud.

Table Topic:
Love Triangles
Are Not Actually Triangles

Abstract:

Modern love triangles should not be confused with Love-V’s.

(Disclaimer: I’m ignoring the likely origin of love triangles referencing A likes B, B likes C, and C likes A for the point to be made. The word triangle is used more a dozen+ times. I apologize if you end up hating triangles.)

[Top Ten Tuesday] – #57 – Top Ten Favourite Authors/Mangakas

Top Ten Tuesday is an original weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. I thought this would be a fun way to share a condensed version of potential rambles and thoughts that I have.

This Week’s Theme:
Top Ten Favourite Authors/Mangakas

Initial Thoughts:

I’ve split this list to include authors of books and manga simply Book authors are cool but I can’t forget all the manga/anime that have been a pretty big part of my life (even if I read it sporadically and am super behind). I might not have caught up with every author/artist and their respective works but I do appreciate them enough to give them a shout-out.
