Saturday Review of Books: November 11, 2006

Welcome to this week’s Saturday Review of Books. Here’s how it works. Find a review on your blog posted sometime this week of a book you’re reading or a book you’ve read. The review doesn’t have to be a formal sort of thing. You can just write your thoughts on a particular book, a few ideas inspired by reading the book, your evaluation, quotations, whatever.

Now post a link here to the specific post where you’ve written your book review. Don’t link to your main blog page because this kind of link makes it hard to find the book review, especially when people drop in later after you’ve added new content to your blog. In parentheses after your name, add the title of the book you’re reviewing. This addition will help people to find the reviews they’re most interested in reading.

Thanks to everyone for reviewing, blogging, and linking. Visit Semicolon’s Amazon Store for more great book recommendations.

  1. Oops, Sherry, I forgot to put my title in the Mr. Linky thing. Any way to fix it? The book is “Looking for God in Harry Potter”.

  2. This book is about the influence of the KJV on English literature. Written in 1912, it gives an interesting viewpoint of literature from 1610-1912. For example, the author didn’t think that Jane Austen had a lasting effect on English literature. Other than that, it was a good book!

  3. I didn’t leave my book’s name either. I see Carrie’s got fixed but not how she did it. My book is “the History of Love.” I’m excited to read all these reviews.

  5. Darn!
    I thought of this several times yesterday when I was away from computer access and then woke this morning realizing – darn! Sunday already and I missed Semicolon’s Saturday Review!
    Sorry to be late again. I’ll try to make it on time next week.
    Thanks for the forum
    Andrea

  6. Good idea for posting review links. I spend almost as much time reading ABOUT books now, as actually reading books. And adding to my TBR list…!
