And Today We're Three


Today marks the third anniversary for Becky's Book Reviews. I'd like to thank my readers for sticking around, for being so supportive and so friendly. I love to hear from you. So don't be shy! (I love comments!) I'd like to thank the publishers and authors as well. While I would still continue to blog even without new review copies--I'm not in this for the free books after all--I appreciate your generosity and thoughtfulness. You do make a big difference in my life--in what I read and what I blog. (Or perhaps I should amend that to when I read what I blog.) I'd like to thank all the challenge hosts out there for giving me something to blog about. Challenges have made a huge difference in my life after all. They're so very addictive. And I want to thank you for enabling me!

Last anniversary, I chose selected posts from each month, I'd like to do the same this year...

Year Three, Month One: My review of Breaking Dawn. Slightly off topic, I really, really can't wait until Dan breaks down Breaking Dawn. Right now, he's reading New Moon. And he's already finished Twilight.

Year Three, Month Two: My review of Jane Eyre. Because I love being wrong about a book. I love making a new friend.

Year Three, Month Three: My interview with Kathi Appelt. I know I shouldn't have favorites. But this interview is. I think Kathi Appelt was just awesome.

Year Three, Month Four: My review of Jellicoe Road. Because sometimes it's really, really hard to describe a book you find so perfect.

Year Three, Month Five: Weekly Geeks 27 Because I still miss Dewey.

Year Three, Month Six: The King's Rose. Because the cover still wows me. I don't know. Do I have to have a reason???

Year Three, Month Seven: Don Quixote Because I spent so much time with Don Quixote. This is a monster of a book and I'm really proud of myself for sticking with it.

Year Three, Month Eight: Maus An amazing book--an unforgettable one.

Year Three, Month Nine: Real Reason I Blog Because sometimes I need a reminder that it is all about making connections. Connecting books with readers.

Year Three, Month Ten: Fat Cat Because I love finding a book that makes me giddy.

Year Three, Month Eleven: The Blue Castle Because I love finding myself in a book.

Year Three, Month Twelve: To Say Nothing of the Dog. Because I love taking a chance and having it pay off.

You may have been here for three years, but you produce so much more! (A year for you equals about two for me.) Thank you for all your reviews and for sharing so many terrific books.

Congratulations!
