::Required Reading:: 08.19.12



 So it's not really required reading (heavens knows, I have enough of that as a university student), but a weekly feature where I share the love by showcasing posts that I have read that inspired me/made me laugh/were thought provoking, etc. I also do a weekly recap to reflect on my bookish week.

Rachelia’s Recap
Umm, so still no reviews this week, but there was a few other posts on the blog that I was excited about:
 
This week I … recommended a book with a blue cover (& I forced myself not to choose TFiOS!).
 
 
This week I … announced THE SUNNYDALE PROJECT that I will be co-hosting this fall. Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans, check out this sneak peek!
 
Bookish Posts
Another blogger has been added to the Required Reading circle - Kimberly at Sliced Open Reviews has taken up this weekly feature, joining Kelly from Radiant Shadow, and of course, me!
 
Forever Young Adult’s review of the new Sweet Valley Confidential series from the P.O.V of Kristy from The Baby-Sitters Club had me LOLing the whole way through!
 
This post by fiktshun about expectations SHOULD be required reading for every book blogger. It’s absolutely perfect, and something I’ve been struggling with and trying to work through lately.
 
One of my new favourite blogs is That Cover Girl. I love learning about the design process and seeing all the gorgeous covers. If you don’t subscribe already, you should!
 
Book Brats was on a ROLL this week! Megan made an excellent argument for what what YA books could learn from Clueless (the classic 1990s film - if you haven’t seen it, seriously, what are you waiting for?!) AND also gave great tips for broke book bloggers !
