I like to do memes once in while. I see many memes in my google reader , and if its for a book I haven't heard about it then I will look at then. But others times I just delete them. This also goes for Cover Reveals by many of the same blogs.
I usually do something with mailbox's but not lately since the scandal. I like the Top Ten Tuesdays , and the Friday One's . I have become picky or if I don't have thing on the blog then I might play with the other blog readers . I have noticed that I have posted Mon, Wed, Friday. I don't want to clog up my readers with too many unnecessary stuff.
Thanks Karen and Tiger for this topic
i usually participate In My Mailbox, It's Monday, What Are You Reading and Friday Blog Hops. I stopped doing IMM's so it's down to only two memes. Now you mentioned it, I realized i'm not really into memes because I never do it regularly, just when I have time or when I feel like doing it.
ReplyDeleteNow that you mention it, I never participate and I'm not really interested in cover reveals. I like pretty covers, but I'm more interested in a particular book or author.
ReplyDeleteThis is the second mention of a brouhaha about the IMM meme --- which I totally wasn't aware of. I actually never read the IMM posts that come into my reader feed -- it's just not a meme that I was ever that into. I really only participate in 3 memes, and one of them is Wordless Wednesday (so that's the easiest one). :)
ReplyDeleteI used to do wordless wednesday for a bit.
DeleteGood point about the cover reveals. I had started participating in a few but then I saw that about 50-100 blogs post a cover on the same day and personally I find that annoying so I only do them if it's a book I know & believe in now.
ReplyDeleteYes there have been a couple days when it was all cover reveals. UGH
DeleteI'm the opposite about the cover reveals- I actually like that many people post the same one as it reaches are much larger audience especially if it's from a new unknown author!
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, I don't like looking down my blog list and seeing nothing but memes. Sometimes I just sit there wondering if anybody writes reviews anymore!
I know about meme's and reviews thats why I have do it sporadically.
Deletecover reveals are something I hadn't thought of. i've never been asked to participate in one so I'm not sure how they work. Sometimes it seems like bloggers see it on other blogs, then grab it for their own, but I'm sure it's not intended to look that way at all.
ReplyDeleteI like them enough.
ReplyDeleteI do love anything with a teaser or cover reveal.
