Looking for other great book blogs? Here are some excellent book blogs that we read, enjoy, and respect:
They have what may be our favorite blog tagline ever: “A site for YA readers who are a little less Y and a little more A.” Their reviews of YA books and YA-inspired pop culture are smart, insightful, and hilarious.
Librarian Betsy Bird is the go-to resource for middle grade and picture book reviews. Take note of her Caldecott & Newbery predictions – while not always accurate, they consistently point us toward some of the best books of the year. Her Top 100 Children’s Novels and Top 100 Children’s Picture Books polls are excellent barometers of what librarians, educators, and kids love.
Another blogging pair, and one of our favorites, Ana and Thea have fabulous taste and offer “reviews, recommendations & ponderings” about many books we’ve come to love. Their “On the Smugglers Radar” posts have given us countless additions to our to-read lists of books on the horizon we ought to pay attention to.
Although the creators of this blog are no longer posting, this is a great resources for anyone who is seeking to diversify their reading or build a home/classroom/library book collection that more accurately reflects our diverse population.
