- Kristen has officially launched her Re-Read Challenge over at We Be Reading!!!!! For all of you who are like me (i.e., love to own every book s/he reads, but may never read it more than once!), now is your chance to appreciate and love those books one more time! I will have an official post coming soon. I'm very, very excited about this one!!
- Over at Alexia's Books and Such, she started the conversation, Reviews: Short & Sweet or Long & Detailed? It made me begin thinking about what my readers prefer! I tend to go more for the long side, but will occasionally write shorter versions. (Maybe this is why I'm so stinkin' behind in my reviews these days?!?!) I encourage all you fellow bloggers to join in the conversation! Besides, I'm curious what you have to say as well!
- My Friend Amy educated us and confessed her own love in My Name is Amy and I Read YA. Do you read YA? I do and love them!!
Additional Updates:
- Yep, once again, my updates have not been posted! I made a decision this last week that will affect the way they are launched and therefore, created more work for myself!! For all of you subscribers out there, I want to apologize upfront. I am going to be importing some information this week and posting some things from past dates. You may become inundated with posts when I do this, but please bear with me. All this talk is enough! It's time to walk the walk!!
- I have decided to make this a weekly post. It helps me to motivate and organize myself. If you would like to join in, please feel free to do so. Just remember to comment so I don't miss out on your weekly synopsis!
