Did you catch our inaugural First Book Blogger Book Club? We asked some of our favorite book bloggers to read ‘Slam’ by Nick Hornby, and tell us what they thought. It’s a great way to let more people know about the young adult titles we carry on the First Book Marketplace, and get people talking about some of the books we love.
And now we want you! You’ve always wanted to join a book club, right? Book bloggers in particular, but anyone with a blog or a website, or even just a Facebook page is welcome to participate. Read the book, think it over, and tell us what you think! We’ll be spotlighting everyone’s posts and reviews on April 19, and then we can discuss the book here on the First Book blog.
This month’s selection is: Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks, by E. Lockhart.
Follow Frankie from her 14 year old geeky, shy self to her 16 year old criminal masterminded self her wont take no for an answer, not even from her boyfriend and his secret all-male club. This is the story of how she got that way.
So pick up a copy of the book at your favorite bookstore or library, share your thoughts on April 19th (or a few days before, if you like), and send us the link to your post.
Questions? Just ask them in the comments section of this post, and we’ll get back to you right away.
February 19? or April 19?
I love this idea – off to go get the book!
April 19! There was a typo in the blog post at first. We look forward to reading everyone’s submissions. Enjoy the book!
