Week 7: Assignment 3

Follow any two of the listed blogs/websites for a week and blog about them.

My first selection was author John Green's blog.  Not too exciting.  It is not updated regularly.  There are mostly just podcasts blogs.  In 2007 John and his brother Hank, who monitor and contribute to the website stopped 'writing' blogs and now just videoblog.  They both use other avenues rather than this website to communicate with the public.  This website is a good source of information about John Green's books.  I also selected the blog STACKED and believe it's a successful blog.  Librarians write the reviews and it's intended audience is middle grades through adult readers of young adult literature.  Guest bloggers, other librarians and authors also contribute.  I appreciate that the reviews are not ambiguous!  Bloggers use clear language to communicate what was successful in a novel or disliked about a book.  This blog does not review: paranormal or paranormal romances, morality tales, religious / inspirational fiction, or self published titles unless the writer has a proven track record in traditional publication.
