This is the last week of Nonfiction November - this may only be my second time actually following through for all four weeks of this event. Which is great - because I discovered some amazing blogs and several excellent nonfiction titles this month. Doing Dewey is hosting the week and she's asking - It’s been a month full of amazing nonfiction books! Which ones have made it onto your TBR?

The book blogging world surely has no shortage of awesome events. Only yesterday I was talking about the Indie Lit Awards. Today, I have another event to talk about - the 2011 Book Blogger Appreciation Week. I have a lot of links shared up in this post. You can also just go to the main website and browse around.
The BBAW, as it is better known, is Amy's (of My Friend Amy) brainchild. It has been running successfully for a few years now, and if you don't know what it is about, it is a week of celebrating book bloggers and all that we stand for. There are awards for various categories and niches and also a few book categories. The 2011 BBAW runs on the week of September 12-16. Starting now, you can register your favorite blogs in their respective categories or niches and once nominations are over, the judging will start.
Learn more about BBAW 2011 and the award process this year.

I encourage you all to go visit the main site and submit your favorite blogs. After all, this is about celebrating the book blogger love and sharing your favorite blogs across various niches. Last year, self-nominations were allowed, but this year, you can only nominate a blog that's not your own. Nominations close on Aug 13th, so don't forget to put your vote in soon!
