Don’t Miss It Monday!
Hi, Folks!
I’m not typically one for monthly or weekly “recap” posts, but there is SO MUCH happening at RBR.net this month and this summer, that I thought it would be a good idea to put it all together in one post and remind everyone about what’s going on. I’m including some major events that are taking place here at RBR.net, as well as some big events hosted elsewhere, but in which I’m participating (I think many of you might want to get involved in these as well!).
Andrew Smith Summer Event
Register for the Event HERE.
Enter to win a copy of July’s book, Stick, HERE.
Participate in Week 1 Discussion of In the Path of Falling Objects HERE.
Why Join?: Andrew Smith’s books are CRAZY good and terribly under-appreciated. Giveaways, interviews, guest posts, group discussions, and more!

I feel better knowing that someone is just as crazy as I am…there is SO MUCH going on right now! I have the Victorian Event, my Warbreaker readalong, the Andrew Smith readalongs (finally got my book today so I can catch up), the Mistborn readalong, AND I’m trying to finish Catch-22 for the project with my students. It is INSANE….sounds normal for me, right? 😉

My goal for the summer is to read books I already own. Or, rather, that I already owned before June. My shelves are getting out of control! The Victorian Challenge fits in with that, so I’m excited about that. I’m intrigued by the Literary Blog Hop, though – off to check it out. Happy reading!
