Google Reader's Almost Gone: Alternative Ways To Follow YA Book Queen & Other Blogs!

Google Reader is unfortunately going to disappear for good soon, so I've decided that it was time to bring up a few options for those of you who would like to continue following this blog. Here are some ways to keep up with what's happening on YA Book Queen (and with other blogs, too):

A. You can follow YA Book Queen on Bloglovin. I'm starting to adore bloglovin since it makes it very easy to keep up with my favorite websites. Plus, there's an app for iPad users! 
B.  Alternatively, you can also subscribe to YA Book Queen's feed using another reader.
C.  Or, you can even subscribe to receive blog posts via email. 
D.  I also usually tweet links to my blog posts. 
E.  Similarly, I try to post links on YA Book Queen's Facebook page. 
All of these options are linked on the top of my right sidebar (the orange social media icons). 

Feedly is fantastic, too, for those of you who want to keep following multiple blogs. I've been using this for the last few months, and I think it's fabulous! Feedly has plenty of differently colored themes, a few ways to customize how you view the blogs you follow (I prefer the magazine view), it let's you organize blogs into different categories, makes it incredibly simple to add blogs to follow, and it's easy to navigate. There's also an iPad app. All in all, it's a great alternative to Google Reader!

Bewitched Bookworms made a post a few months ago that lists plenty of other great alternatives to Google Reader, so check it out!  

Slow Week...and Links

Hey everyone!
I know things have been slow on the blog lately. My college courses started a couple weeks ago, so I'm a little behind on blogging (analyzing The Canterbury Tales and Beowulf is taking up so much of my time that it's almost ridiculous). However, I should be back on track with blogging, commenting, and emailing fairly soon. In the meantime, this week will have fewer posts than normal.
But in the meantime, I did manage to spot something neat while on Amazon buying textbooks -- Have you seen that the original script of the pilot episode for ABC's upcoming TV series Revenge is available free on Kindle? It even has a link to the full pilot episode at the end of the script to watch, so be sure to check it out! 
Also, make sure you enter to win Hades by Alexandra Adornetto here on my blog if you haven't already. It ends soon!
Hope you all are having a fabulous week so far :)


PS: I figured since I didn't have that many posts lately, I at least owed you guys an adorable photo of my dog from her puppy years. Don't be fooled by her innocent stare though....she was a rascal then, and even more so now ;)
