About Me
>> Tuesday, March 18, 2008
Hello! My name is Sarah and I am a tween and teen librarian. I love being asked about great books to read! I also review books for TeensReadToo.com. I started my blog as a way to keep track of what I've been reading and to use a reference tool for reader's advisory and it's grown into much more than I could have ever anticipated. In addition to book reviews, I also enjoy posting audiobook reviews, YA Movie News, and my adventures in being a librarian.

Yea Sara! I found you right off the bat. (I'm in your SLIS class.) Congrats on a great blog site. How oh how did you get it out to so many followers?
Good luck in the contest!

hey, sara. :-) I was in your SLIS 5100 group last semester. I read your article in Voya and thought it was great. :-) Your blog is fantastic.
Hi! I'm a book junkie, and I just discovered your blog about a week ago! I'm 15 and I noticed you read a lot of my favorite books. (Shiver, Anne of Green Gables, Hunger Games and Catching Fire, Hush Hush... etc) And I just want to recommend a really great book/series that I would love to hear what your review of it would be. It's called the Mortal Instrument Series and the first book is City of Bones. I know you've said you don't really like fantasies... but I didn't for a while either until I found these books. They're full of a whole lot of romance and humor! Not to mention some girl power from the main character Clary. And if you liked Patch from Hush, Hush you'll fall in love with Jace. His jokes are hilarious and highly quotable, and he is perfectly crush worthy. Anyways, I'd really love for you to review these books. :) Please and thank you!
