The first Weekly Geeks Challenge from Dewey is to visit at least 5 new blogs that are unfamiliar to you. This was a great idea for the first challenge.
Here’s what I found:
- Serena at Savvy Verse and Wit is celebrating National Poetry Month by having a giveaway. Just post an original poem or your favorite poem in her comments by May 2, and she will post the winner on May 3.
- I had to visit Michelle’s blog just because she’s a Michelle! She had such pretty butterflies for her theme, and I love the picture of all the children’s books she just got from Amazon.
- I love the header Kristen has at Delightfully Dogmatic. She just finished Out Stealing Horses and while she was lukewarm about it, she says she’d still recommend it.
- Laura at Reading Reflections just finished The Book Thief and rated it 5/5. That was such a good book!!!!
- Kim at Page after Page has already posted a Once Upon a Time II wrap-up!! Congratulations on finishing that challenge so quickly!
