I’m not sure how I am going to get all of this done but I will give it the old college try.

Beginning next month I will be beginning a program here at my local library called “Buzzworthy Bistro.” It will be a program designed to spotlight new and upcoming book titles for our patrons to be aware of. A good portion of each month will focus on upcoming books that I have read. I get more and more Advanced Reader Copies in the mail and try to read as many as possible.

Staying fully abreast of new book releases is a daunting task.

In addition, I was invited this week to be a part of the Sequoyah Book Awards Committee. I will be a part of the High School team. Our task is to read and whittle down a list of 149 YA books to a 15 book Masterlist by April.

I average reading 17 books a month. I figure if I read 7 of each: Sequoyah and ARC’s that will give me 3 “wildcard” reads.

It’s gonna be fun.
