As I scanned my Reader, I read this post by Dana Huff at Much Madness is Divinest Sense…and was inspired to create such a blog of my own, so I did.
This year…a new goal on this the first of January of the new year 2009…to catalog, to reflect, to share…my thoughts on books as I read them. Mrs. G’s Book Reviews will catalog my reflections on authors of my choice.
Ms. Dana read 23 books this past year…wow! Amazing, especially when you appreciate her extremely busy schedule.
Right now I have no idea how many books I read last year, but I did peruse this blog and co-posted my thoughts on some that I had read on the new blog.
Thanks, Ms. Dana, for the inspiration!

Hey Mrs. G,
Happy new year and congrats on your new blog! I just wanted to drop you a line and see if you are reader of The Picnic Basket (www.thepicnic-basket.com).
It is a blog that provides a limited number of free books to people who are willing to write a review on their blog as well as on their own blog if they have one. Books range from picture books to YA titles. I have reviewed 2 books so far (a picture book and a YA book) and I’ve got two more on the way.
It is a good way for my students to see me actively reviewing books and selecting new styles and genres. Plus – who doesn’t love free books to add to your class library?
If you don’t already frequent this site – check it out!
Cheers,
Head Monkey
