Book Blogger Hop: Are you a voracious reader or a #booknerd?

Posted on November 11, 2022November 11, 2022 by BonnieReadsAndWrites

Book Blogger Hop

The Book Blogger Hop was originally created by Jennifer @ Crazy-For-Books in March 2010 and ended on December 31, 2012. With Jennifer’s permission, Billy @ Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer relaunched the hop on February 15, 2013. Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end the following Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book-related question. The hop’s purpose is to give bloggers a chance to follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend other bloggers, and receive new followers to their own blog.

This week’s question was submitted by Billy @Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer.

Either one is fine with me. Voracious reader means you have an appetite for books, or want a lot of books, so that sounds more appropriate for me. Book nerds might refer to more intellectual or technical books, so I would say voracious reader fits better.

What about you? Voracious reader or book nerd?

I love to read and write book reviews in my free time. I review advance review copies of books on Netgalley for various publishers. I am also a reviewer for Historical Novels Review Magazine, the magazine of the Historical Novel Society. I review books from publishers of all size, large to small. I have a special place in my heart for indie authors. I will sometimes post a little writing that I might dabble in occasionally. I also am lucky enough to live in the Smoky Mountains, so I'll be sharing photos of the beauty around me from time to time. View all posts by BonnieReadsAndWrites

Good question, Bonnie. I’m no longer a book nerd, though when I went to college and later worked in the technical field I definitely was. Now I read because I enjoy it. 🙂

Interesting thoughts on what each mean. I think of a book nerd as more someone who just likes books and reading in all it forms. That’s me. I would go with voracious reader but I’m slow and I can’t usually keep up with true voracious readers. 😀 Thanks for stopping by my post.

I don’t read enough books to be considered a voracious reader. I’d say I’m more of a book aficionado.

I don’t mind either term but slightly prefer voracious reader.
