Literature is my Utopia. Here I am not disenfranchised. No barrier of the senses shuts me out from the sweet, gracious discourse of my book friends. They talk to me without embarrassment or awkwardness.”
Helen Keller
Welcome to this week’s Saturday Review of Books. Here’s how it works. Find a review on your blog posted sometime this week of a book you’re reading or a book you’ve read. The review doesn’t have to be a formal sort of thing. You can just write your thoughts on a particular book, a few ideas inspired by reading the book, your evaluation, quotations, whatever.
Now post a link here to the specific post where you’ve written your book review. Don’t link to your main blog page because this kind of link makes it hard to find the book review, especially when people drop in later after you’ve added new content to your blog. In parentheses after your name, add the title of the book you’re reviewing. This addition will help people to find the reviews they’re most interested in reading.

Thanks as always!!
Mine’s an Os Guinness book this week. Thanks for hosting this.
Thanks for doing this. I already see quite a few reviews I want to visit. have a good weekend.
Thanks, Sherry, for faithfully hosting this! I finally finished another book this week. I reviewed Jerusalem’s Hope by Bodie and Brock THoene. An excellent book!
I read two recent Newbery winners this week – Kira-Kira (which won in 2005) is basically a good teen girl book; and Crispin: The Cross of Lead (2003 winner) is a good adventure story for boys 10 & up, I think.
Tree of Smoke, about Vietnam. I didn’t love it, but it won me over, and I think I’ll remember it for a long time.
Just dropped in from The Book Smugglers and couldn’t resist!
Thanks for hosting us!
