Hi everyone! I hope you're all doing well during all of this craziness. Virginia has been essentially shut down (or my little corner has) for about a week and a half now and boredom. has. STRUCK. In the midst of the boredom, however, an idea was born. And so, I bring to you...
Ten for Ten!
Okay, let me explain the challenge to you real quick. My sister came up with this and let me tell you, it was shocking. She did not inherit the bookworm gene. She reads maybe a book every six months per my begging, so I was so excited about her coming up with this!
Objective: Cure boredom and read more.
Cure: Read something new!
We each delved into our bookshelves and picked ten of our favorite books for each other to read. Obviously, we had things we clearly said we did not want and we respected those decisions. (For me, that meant NO other-wordly kinds of fantasy books. For her, it meant no contemporary cowboy stories.)
To try to help as we can with the hard times covid-19 has placed on people, we also agreed to go ahead and write reviews for each story. Reviews are such a help to authors, and if you love something, don't you want to tell your friends about it? :)
So, in the coming days and weeks, watch for our Ten for Ten book reviews and if you want, join in on the fun!
