About Me

My Photo
I am a youth services librarian, which means I work with ages birth-18. I love being asked about great books to read! When I'm not found with a book in my hands I'm most likely playing board games. The opinions and content of this blog are my own and are not that of my library system. My blog content is my own and not that of any committee or organization I'm involved in. A Note to Authors/Publishers: I am not currently accepting new titles to review at this time. I would be happy to read and review your book. If I you have a book that you would like to share with me, please contact me at greenbeanteenqueen (at) gmail (dot) com.

Ready...Set...Read!!! 48 Hour Book Challenge

Tomorrow morning I will be getting up early (which let me tell you, is not easy for me!) and starting the 48 Hour Book Challenge sponsored by MotherReader.

If you haven't signed up, you should think about it. And if I can work all weekend and do the challenge then you can too! Right now my pile has twenty books and one audiobook in it. I don't know if I'll get to all of them, but I'm going to try and read as many as I can.

I'll be posting updates throughout the challenge when I finish a book and about my progress, but I think I'm going to post short reviews during the challenge and write longer reviews after-that way I have a fun list of reviews to look forward to!!

If you're participating in the challenge, comment on this post and I'll be sure to cheer you on!:)

-Lovestruck Summer by Melissa Walker

Good luck! That's a great list of books to read - I hope you get through most of that pile. I've decided to try the challenge myself, though I'm not quite as ambitious as you are with my reading goals :D

I've got The Forest of Hands and Teeth on my TBR pile too (and a similarly long list). Good luck!
