Follow My Book Blog Friday

Follow My Book Blog Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View. This is my first one so let me introduce myself....

I started this book blog (this summer) when our school district had to make cuts and relocate people (thanks to the state of Illinois's budget crisis). Previously I worked in our middle school library and loved it! I enjoyed talking with my students about the books they loved and was reintroduced to the world of young adult literature. This blog is a way of staying connected to some of my former students and to stay current on the latest ya books. I'm meeting a lot of people and having fun developing my blog. If you haven't heard of Karin the Librarians Summer Break Reading Challenge...head over to the site and join in on the fun!

Great title for your blog

stopped by and decided to follow. Your sense of caring for your students is really admirable. I had a librarian in school who made a big difference in my life and I don't think I have been without a book since! Heard "The Passage" is a doorstop -- is it reading quickly? I hope you can stop over to my site and check out my blog on almost anything pertaining to the supernatural, and Paranormal: Books, movies, myths, symbols, history... Fangs, Wands and Fairy Dust
