Meeting Day!

At lunchtime we met up for only our second formal Carnegie Shadowing meeting and I'm delighted to announce that our group has grown, and that nearly everyone has finished reading at least one book already!  Well done everyone.  That means that there's a lot of reviews to write...

Several people started their review writing today and I'm really looking forward to reading them.  Don't forget the guidance page on the tabs along the top, where there are easy to follow instructions on how to write a detailed review. If you find that you can't write that much about a book, don't worry!  Just a couple of paragraphs about what you liked and what you didn't will be fine. The important thing is that as many of us as possible are reading these books, reviewing them and talking about them. As I said, there are some exciting things on the horizon.

If anyone needs help logging in or posting reviews, please let me know on my school email address (adkinsn etc) and I'll be happy to help out.  And don't forget to comment on each other's reviews!  If you've read the same book, what did you think of it?  Do you agree with what the reviewer has said?  It's ok to disagree, and not that that I would advocate fighting (ok, that's slightly untrue - book fights are totally awesome) having a discussion is to be encouraged.

Keep going, Ninja Readers!
