As of Monday, this blog will be in the capable hands of a stellar fleet of generous guest bloggers. I hope you’ll be very nice to all of them, and will find their posts engaging and entertaining! I haven’t received all those posts yet – I asked for them by today, but some folks were early birds and have already sent them – so I can’t give you the complete agenda right now. However, here’s a sneak peek at some of what’s on the way:
- Average Jane juggles three very different book clubs (and a martini)!
- Mike from Everything Under the Sun escapes the wrath of a Derby Doll in his first book review!
- Kim from Sophisticated Dorkiness proposes a new literary genre!
- Author/blogger Susan Helene Gottfried talks about why your book reviews matter!
- Molly from The Bumbles Blog launches an attack on feed-reader chaos!
- Teresa talks about books worth keeping!
- Young book blogger Melina from Reading Vacation sings the praises of reading!
I should have the full schedule set to include in my Sunday Salon post this weekend.

Blogthings Quiz of the Week:
You Don’t Feel Entitled |
You don’t think you’re better than anyone else in this world, and you certainly don’t feel like you deserve special treatment. And to be honest, it really drives you crazy when people think they are entitled to breaks and favors. You believe in taking your responsibilities seriously and working your hardest. |
