I commented on five of the links.
Rebecca of Lost in Books did a fabulous job of pulling together book bloggers with the same name in this post: What's in a Name? Check and see which bloggers share your name.
And yes, I've commented on 5 (dozen?) blogs this week. :-)

Nicole is a friend I met in the Prague Summer Program and it’s been wonderful to see her work there turned into a book. She’s written a well-crafted memoir about her battle with an eating disorder, listed as one of the “Best of Eating Disorder Books” on www.ambrosia.com. And she’s getting married next weekend!

Oops! I forgot to say that I've visited 5+ (6? 7?) blogs and commented. So much fun!
Mary at Books Gardens and Dogs wrote a great post about a girl who keeps a private lending library of books on the banned books list for her classmates to borrow. The link is here.
I have also shared the love with quite a few blogs the past couple of days :D
I have also added the LLM link to my sidebar.
Hey Susan,
I commented on 5 links. Thanks for always providing such interesting blog sites to check out! I have put many of them on my Favorites so that I can be sure to stop by again!
I love LLM! Here's Betsy Bird's interview with Kekla Magoon (THE ROCK AND THE RIVER) on her School Library Journal blog.

Thanks, Mitali, I love The Rock and The River. Beautiful piece of writing. Love your new book as well. Review coming soon.
To all, updating these links shortly.
Icedream, link isn't working.
I'm sure we're all a little behind following the long holiday weekend, so let's show some lov'n today. New links posted.
Oh, I am so sorry! Here it is in full, I'm not going to trust my coding again :D
