Week 1
Assignment 1: Got 18/20 on the Childrens Book Covers Quiz. Didn't know Guess How Much I Love You and The Napping House. Can't say I ever remember reading either as a kid I guess...
Got 21/24 on the Adult Book Covers. Didn't know Angela's Ashes, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, The Prophet, and She's Come Undone.
Assignment 2: Got most of these...I really enjoy book covers! It is interesting that there are so many sub-genres to things like Science Fiction that you would never normally think about.
Assignment 3: The Golden Rules of Readers' Advisory: http://www.readersadvisoronline.com/ranews/june2005/orr.html
Assignment 4: For my websites to start visiting on a daily basis, I am first choosing Early Word (http://www.earlyword.com/). I've actually already signed up for the weekly newsletter and have been receiving it for several months now. It has already proven to be a valuable resource, as I've learned of a good amount of books I'm actually excited about! I particularly enjoy it because I have been finding lots of book to movie news on it as well.
I will start checking out the website Locus Online (http://www.locusmag.com/). This interests me because on the very first page, I already see a lot of authors, books, and even movies that I enjoy and would like to know more about.
Assignment 5: Pretty funny!
