Dewey’s idea for the second Weekly Geeks segment is to invite people to comment with their links to reviews of books they’ve read that you’ve also read. I’m not sure I’m going to make this a permanent change, but I’ll try this out for a month or so at least.
EDIT: I decided this is a little too time-consuming on a book by book basis. HOWEVER, I have put Mr. Linkys into my 2008 monthly posts for people to enter their reviews if they wish. To see my monthly reports and add your reviews, go here.
If you’ve read a book that I’ve also read and would like me to link to your review, just comment on the particular book review, and I’ll ‘make it so.’
You can find my list of ’07 books read here, and my list of ’08 books is here.
This was another great idea, Dewey!

I will certainly be looking out for reviews in common going forward!
This seems like a very time consuming project! If I do it, I’ll copy your idea of using a Mr. Linky…but I have to figure out where I will put it because I don’t break up my monthly reads into separate posts…will have to think about this some more.
I think I may have left a comment already, but don’t see it. Sorry if this is a duplicate!
There are 3 books that we both reviewed. I already put links of your reviews to the bottoms of mine.
Here are the links:
Anne of Green Gables

Good call with the Mr. Linky in a monthly post. I hope you know that I already have many of your book reviews listed here: http”//bookreviews.mawbooks.com. Thanks!
