I Read It — February

February 2, 2010 by Jennifer

Remember we’ve changed things up a bit. Instead of only linking thoughts and reviews of books that we recommended here at 5 Minutes for Books or in our column at 5 Minutes for Mom, we invite you to share a review that you read at anyone’s recommendation.

You can link up any review from the previous month that shares that information. If you don’t share that information in your reviews, then write a new post for I Read It! and link back to the reviews as you add in the information.

It would be nice if you point your readers to this page so that they can check out the reviews that others link up as well.

For ease in surfing, leave the title of the book in the linky, along with your blog name.

Non-bloggers are welcome to participate in the comment section.

Find out about our upcoming community events at our Join In page. Coming soon:

  • February 9: Children’s Classic Mystery Challenge
  • February 16: Kids’ Picks
  • February 23: What’s on Your Nightstand
  • March 30 (5th Tuesday): New Classics Bookclub — sign up anytime

    So sorry for linking twice–I didn’t put the book title the first time!
    Tis my first joining of a community event here–so much fun!
    I wasn’t able to find where this book was mentioned in the past, I’m now not sure if it was on this site or not…but figured it would be okay to join in anyway!

    I Read It – February:
    Up for Renewal; Going Rogue and The Help.

    Just finished The Help on Sunday and I can’t pick up a new book yet. It is still tumbling around in my head.

    Thanks for the wonderful reviews.

    I just posted my first review here for “The Temple Dancer: A Novel of India” by John Speed. LOVED IT! And this past weekend I also finished “The Help” by Kathryn Stockett. How funny that Fonda, the person before me, did too! I am currently reading “Godmother: The Secret Cinderella Story” by Carolyn Turgeon that was just featured here the other day.
