There’s no weekly recap this week since I’m still on vacation but I was actually proactive and got this little space here set up ahead of time but I thought it’d be a good idea to point you to some other great blogs to read. I did a part 1 back in September so you should take a look at those, too.
Life According to Steph–for whatever reason, she wasn’t on the first list but how could I leave off someone I’ve known off and on for 20 years AND who’s my co-host for all things bookish? I know most of you already know Steph and her awesomeness but if you don’t, visit her now.
Femme Frugality–I can’t say enough nice things about Brynne. Also her blog is wonderful for frugal living tips and she has a great series on her Around the World in 80 Books reading challenge.
A Mindful Migration–Tanya is new to me but I feel like I’ve known her forever. She writes about mindful living and her struggles with self-confidence and self-esteem (I relate all too well) and has some wonderful insight and DIY tips and cat pictures.
Budget and the Beach–another Tonya, another awesome blog. This Tonya is also my roommate at FinCon. She writes about all kinds of finance related stuff from transitioning to being a freelancer to full-time worker to health and fitness on a budget to general lifestyle subjects. PLUS she makes killer videos. Visit her and her Budget and the Beach TV, too.
I Pick Up Pennies–what I love about Abby’s blog is that she’s so open about her struggles with depression and infertility along with her financial ups and downs. It’s rare to find a blogger like that, so willing to share so much of her life with her readers and in a way that’s fun and engaging to read.
I plan to do a part 3 in June when I’m in Phoenix so there’ll be more recommendations coming at you then. In the meantime, let me know:
What are some of your favorite blogs I should be reading?

Ali A says
LOVE bloggers supporting other bloggers, and LOVE finding new blogs to read (I’ve decided since I’m terrible at keeping up with reading books, reading blogs will have to suffice).
Brittany Pines says
Thanks for this, it’s always good to have new blogs!
Ashley @ The Wandering Weekenders says
I love Stephanie’s blog so much! I think that I stumbled upon both of yours for the show us your books linkup and I’ve loved reading your blogs ever since!

Yay! I love getting to know new-to-me blogs!
Abigail @ipickuppennies says
In ADDITION to yours, silly. And thanks for the mention!
I recently picked up She Picks Up Pennies and The Yachtless into my reads. I really like both of those. Pretend to be Poor and JohnJaneDoe are also fun reads.

You probably didn’t have Steph’s blog the first time because you assumed everybody was already reading hers, duh ;). Have fun on vacation!
