I have a terrible admission to make: I’ve never read a book by Michael Chabon. What is wrong with me? I know he’s a good writer, and I NOW know he’s a nice person, so what is my problem? I need to fix this asap, so I’m on the hunt for a good Chabon book….
Canadian bookworms are generally a shy bunch. We don’t get out much because we’re so busy reading and drinking tea (especially in the winter months) and our book awards are not as numerous as the Americans, so rarely do we get a chance to have national discussions about a book’s merit. That’s why the Canada…
So, I’ve once again proven my ineptitude at blogging, but sadly, on my own wordpress site, not even on an obscure platform like bloglovin’. I recently switched to a new computer, thanks to my husband who was sick of my complaining about how slow our 10 year old mac was becoming. So, now I’m working…
Ok first I feel as though I owe a giant apology to Annmarie @ Annemarie McQueen for taking so damn long to get to this. I’m so bad, and I’m sorry! Big thanks to her for nominating me. She’s got a fantastic blog, and even though she’s new to the blogging game she’s got a…
So I’m assuming you look at my lovely Ivereadthis logo and think ‘damn, I love that logo, where did she get it?’ Well I clearly didn’t design it myself, because I don’t have any art-related skills. But I’ll tell you who did: my dear friend Leah Schwantz, maker of Leahtees and marketing/designer extraordinaire. Why am…
Thank you to Jolie (aka Life of a Crazy Mom) for tagging me in this. I’m just starting to feel a part of the book blogging community, and these kinds of posts really go a long way in helping me find more book bloggers to connect with! WHAT WAS THE LAST TRULY GREAT BOOK YOU’VE…
One of my Presidential duties at the Writers’ Guild of Alberta includes attending very fun events to represent our organization. Last night, the Calgary Awards was a perfect example of this. The WGA partners with the city to present the W.O. Mitchell Book Prize, so we always make an appearance at the event to help…
So it looks like I’ve been nominated for The Entertainer Blogger Award. There are a bunch of these blogger awards going around, but this is one that’s not as common, and the questions are a bit weird. Who makes this stuff up? I have no idea, but it’s a fun way to learn a bit…
Things seem to be coming up “Anne Logan” these days. I’m really enjoying recording my weekly radio segments on the CBC, because it’s so fun to chat books with other people who really enjoy reading. And the fact that a large audience is forced to listen to my babble is a secondary perk. And now,…
Whew, how did I get here? 200 posts plus numerous cat pictures later, and I’veReadThis is still going strong, thanks to you guys, my readers. When I first began this blog, I had just left my job in the publishing industry, and was desperate to keep ties to the book community I knew and loved….
I think I’ve mentioned this before, but it doesn’t hurt to say it a second time; I’m on the Board of Directors for a really amazing organization called The Writers’ Guild of Alberta. That’s right, I don’t just read books! I try to support writers too, because I’m not a writer myself, but I want…
I was getting sick of the way my blog looked before, so I gave it an update, thanks to the fine themes they have available through wordpress. I personally find change difficult, but I hope you, dear readers, appreciate this transformation, because I would like my blog to be more user-friendly; if you can’t find…
