Tuesday Book List of Shifting Gears

by JM

terrier.jpgHello and happy Tuesday. (Hey, at least it’s not Monday, right?)

I’m slowly, slowly catching up, which is very awesome for me. I like to read for pleasure, not speed read for the sake of reviews (which I have never done, by the way). Things seem to finally be calming down. (I’ve just cursed it, haven’t I?)

If you would like to try your hand at reviewing, please feel free to contact me. I’m more than happy to put up guest reviews. I’m also thinking of a best book review contest, but it’s just an idea floating around in my brain at this point.

On a last note, stop by my new site The Plot to check out books, read character interviews, and have fun at the Wednesday Pub nights.
