Week One: What I Already Know

Greetings! My first post for BCPL's "Be More Bookish."

The "Recommended Links - Books" link I have chosen is the Book Beast from the Daily Beast website. I like that it is news oriented and somewhat trendy. I like to stay on top of trends, and I am already familiar with the NPR and Salon book pages, and I've been on Goodreads for a while now. I'm already spying several books on the Daily Beast page that look fascinating... stop me, I must get off this page. I only have an hour to spend!

For my "Recommended Links - Genre" selection, I have chosen Stop You're Killing Me a website devoted to lovers of mystery, spy, and suspense books. While I do consider myself a fan of mystery books, I don't know enough about them, and have only read a few series, so I'd love to expand my knowledge.


Assignment 1

The adult books I did OK on (I missed Dan Brown's book? Really?) but I did better on the children's books than expected.

Assignment 2

I did really well on this one. I am not sure why. I think it is the marketing aspect. I look at a lot of magazines!

Assignment 3

Check!

Assignment 4

See above.

Assignment 5
