Welcome to ChiBeReading! New Booktube + Blog

 

...Y'all still here!?!..

Hello my fellow booklovers! Long time no reviews! I cannot believe the last time I posted on here was in 2013 and I just went GHOST! But...

Without further adieu, I would like to welcome you all to...ChiBeReading! 

Hi, I am Chioma aka Chi.

And I be reading 🤗

As I say goodbye to Black and Blue Ink, the blog I called home for so many years, I am excited to invite you all to check out my Booktube channel ChiBeReading, 

and remain a part of my bookish circle here as I go through transitioning Black and Blue Ink the blog to ChiBeReading the booktube + blog!

(one of my favorite videos, me unhauling book because I need space...for more books  🤗)

I sincerely thank all those who have stayed followed to my blog over these years! Your support when I was active meant so much to me and it means so much to mean that you have stuck by Black and Blue Ink.

For a quick summary of what has been going on since your girl dissapeared under non mysterious circumstances ...I graduated college...I am currently in graduate school...I work full time as a Data Scientist...I recently joined booktube...and I am excited to get back into Blogging!

(a recent reads video where I give mini reviews of some great of the books I read...recently)

I have been wanting to get back into the world of book reviews and rejoin the bookish community and all of it's glory for the longest time, but I have been locked out of this account since I posted my last review (thanks Google). So once I finally regained access to this account again, I decided a BLOG REVIVAL & PLATFORM JUMP was in order!

(if you're looking for some new releases by authors of color, I have som recs!)

I am so excited to get back into book reviewing book blogging, interacting with bookish people, and just everything I used to love about the online bookish community. On my booktube I do more aggregate reviews of the books I have read on a weekly or monthly basis, I showcase the books I am looking forward to reading, my favorite books, book recommendations, book hauls/unhauls, and everything in between.

I would love to  post more dedicated reviews here, the blog counterpart to ChiBeReading, and spoiler filled reviews where we can really dive into what happened in the book and have a larger discussion based conversation on the books we have all been reading!

Before this post gets to be 10 miles long, I just want to again thank everyone that has stuck behind Black and Blue Ink over the years and I would greatly appreciate your continued support on my Booktube Channel and as I "rebrand" to ChiBeReading.

Also...what's been going on!? I feel so far removed from the book blogging community so if anyone could fill me in on what's new that would be great! What are the new trends, who's new on the block, I would love to catch-up in the comments!

Looking forward to interacting with everyone and posting here again!

First Blog Post!!!

         Hey fellow young adults, and young adult book lovers. Its Chioma the creator of this blog. This is yet another YA review blog. I have been viewing various young adult blogs for about forever now and it feels so awesome to finally have my very own, woot woot. So the basis of my blog is pretty much going to be like this. I would like to have at least 2 review posts per week, and at least 1 contest per month. By the way I am going to be hosting a contest with two special winners sometime this month. I really would like to strictly have YA books on my blog , but there may be times I sneak in a different variation of books to review (when I do I will be sure to warn everyone).

       This is the first time I am actually hosting a blog so I am really just doing my own thing here. But if any of you fellow bloggers out there have any tips or things you think I should add or change to my blog I would be more than happen to check  out your ideas. Thank all those who came to check out my blog, even though I don't have much now, and advanced thanx to those who like see the potential in my blog enough to become followers!!! Hope you all like what you see and I look forward to my future blogging!!!

~ Chioma
