Sunday Salon: After BBAW, Picture Reading

Posted on 08:03 by Guy
This year's edition of Book Blogger Appreciation Week--without awards, and focused on the community spirit of book blogging--seemed to be a big success! I didn't follow the daily topics all that closely, but two of them provided me with ways into tying up a couple of posts I've been working on for a little while: responses to recent discussions of authenticity and positivity in book reviewing.

But for me, the biggest and best effect of BBAW was a sense of reconnection and renewed energy, and I'm working on a way to foster that going forward--not just for myself, but for all of us who'd like to keep it going. I hope to let y'all know more details soon--I need a little more time to piece it together, but I will say I've approached the hosts of our playground, The Estella Society, about presenting it there, and they liked it!

Meanwhile, here's what I'm reading this weekend:



And here's what I'm not--and why I always bring a book with me. Does anyone else think hair salons need a circulating library?



Enjoy your Sunday! What are you reading this weekend?
