This feature was inspired by It's
Monday! What are you reading? hosted by Sheila at
Book Journey and by
The Sunday Salon.
What's going on in my/the reading world....
Although there are still a couple more hours left on the poll, in which I asked if 1) there should be a dedicated blog for my seasonal read-a-thons and 2) if I should have each read-a-thon during a set week in its designated month each year, the consensus has been yes to both questions. So, the dedicated blog for my read-a-thon is coming soon, just in time for the
High Summer Read-a-Thon. All of my read-a-thons will be hosted from there from now on. My lovely friend, Kai (
Fiction State of Mind), gave me a great name for the dedicated blog and so it will be named
Seasons of Reading. What do you think? I love it!
