Saturday Review of Books: November 25, 2006

I’m sorry I’m late this morning. We’ve been celebrating in our own way here —staying up late, reading, forgetting regular schedules.

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 to everyone for reviewing, blogging, and linking. Visit Semicolon’s Amazon Store for more great book recommendations.

  1. Watch for the Light is my this-year’s advent devotional. It begins on November 24 to accomodate any Advent year and contains several-page daily entries by many well-known literacy giants.

  2. A novel about magic and magicians this time.

    Sherry, the Saturday Review has been a lot of fun. I’ve read books I otherwise might not have tried and it’s a nice prompt for me to get me weekly book entry done! Thanks.

  3. A big THANK YOU to whomever linked through to my blog. I came over to see why I was getting the the extra traffic and discovered several new blogs I must now frequent. And Thanks to everyone for sharing your experiences with these books.
