I wanted to point your attention to the Twitter updates in the sidebar. Some of you have seen them and have started following us. Thanks! I hope to use our updates there to point you to some reviews and giveaways or interesting conversations that are happening in the comments. Most importantly it serves as a reminder of upcoming events (which are also always available at the Join In tab on the NavBar). You can follow us at www.twitter.com/5M4B.
And since I’m posting now, let me take the time to remind you about some upcoming events:
Tomorrow Kids’ Picks will post at 6:00am Eastern time. Join us for my favorite Tuesday community event by posting what your kids have enjoyed reading this month.
Next Tuesday is What’s on My Nightstand, an event that continues to grow and bring new people to our site. Thank you for participating so faithfully (and with such anticipation!).
And finally, March 31 we are having our quarterly 5th Tuesday event of I Read It!. We thought about canceling it because December’s participation was so low, but that was just the second time we had it, and several people pleaded with us to keep it. So, if you like the idea of posting up a review (or reviews) of books that you decided to read based on a recommendation here or in the book column at 5 Minutes for Mom, this is your last chance! If it has a strong showing, we’ll keep it. If not, we’ll have an off-week every quarter, or we’ll add something else.
Classics Bookclub —
Our full schedule (through September) can be found at the Join In page. Tuesday April 7 we’ll be reading Around the World in Eighty Days.
Thank you–
I couldn’t pop in here with an announcement and neglect the opportunity to thank you — on behalf of myself and all the reviewers. We are each so pleased to have the opportunity to share our love of the written word with you.
As always, if you have suggestions for us about the site, leave a comment or send us an email.
