All good things must come to an end.
No, no, don’t worry. What’s on Your Nightstand is not one of them. We enjoy hosting and visiting around and participating in this monthly meme.
But after being a part of the 5 Minutes for Books team since we launched two years ago, both Lisa and Carrie will be stepping aside from their roles as “staff reviewers.” I’ve enjoyed working with them, and I’ve loved the variety that they’ve each contributed to our review base.
They will each still be blogging and hopefully participating in some of our weekly Tuesday carnivals, so they won’t be strangers. You can keep up with Lisa’s heartfelt thoughts at Lisa Writes. Carrie will still be reviewing books over at Reading to Know, where she focuses on reviewing books for adults and children from a Christian worldview.
Since we are saying goodbye, we are also happy to be saying “hello” to a new staff reviewer.
Nancy at Life with my Boys has been a regular participant in our Tuesday carnivals, has written a few guest posts, and is an avid reader. I knew she’d be a great fit, and I’m so glad that she accepted our invitation. She enjoys popular fiction, historical fiction, children’s books, and a few other genres. She is also an avid audiobook fan.
I still have a few reviews of Lisa’s and Carrie’s to post, and Nancy has already accepted her first review titles, so we are definitely in transition.
So, enough about us. Tell us about you! Link directly to your post telling us what’s on your Nightstand. Don’t forget to visit around, and see what else is on everyone else’s summer reading list.

Sniff. And now it’s official!
Wow! But you’re right – I’m still around. =)
Yeah-you’re still around, and so are your reviews, LOL, but that won’t be for long!
Best wishes to Lisa and Carrie…I will continue to read their individual blogs as I have enjoyed their contributions here immensely.
I look forward to getting to know Nancy better and wish her success at her new role!
This is my first week participating in this carnival…I’ve been sort of a shy observer around here, so I thought I would talk up a little 🙂
Have a great week everyone!
BookGirl — we don’t mind shy observers, but we LOVE those who join in so that we can get to know you and your tastes better as well!
Thank you BookGirl! And welcome to the carnival, it’s lots of fun. 🙂
Welcome Nancy! : )
Thank you!
My first linky entry, the link is messed up. Sorry for the double entry – but the second one is correct.
Late to the party… but thanks for hosting, Jennifer!
Wow! What a great site. I love to read and I will definitely be returning.
I just finished a book called The Housekeeper and the Professor which was really terrific. I heard they made a movie of it, too, but I think it’s only available in Japan (and in Japanese).
If you’re interested, this is my Book Review: The Housekeeper and the Professor.
