Mrs Readalot's Bloggy Bookclub

Little Miss Readalot, age 7

Mrs Readalot has a great plan for her bloggy Bookclub. She called for ideas and now thanks to her lovely bookloving friend, Helen, Mrs Readalot has a new and much-better plan.

One which will get all you book-reading blogoholics excited because... it involves a linky! And you KNOW how much we bloggers love a good linky!

So Helen's suggestion was this: Mrs Readalot announce at the beginning of the month which book she will be reviewing at the end of the month.

Fellow bookworms can either get hold of their own copy of the same book and read along with Mrs Readalot, or they choose their own book(s) to read... and review.

But wait there's more.
Book Club members will get a chance to host the linky! A different blog each month - thereby creating more traffic for your blog (who doesn't like that?) and sharing the blog love around.

At the end of the month Mrs Readalot will post her own review and attach a link to this month's Book Club Host and announce the following Month's Book Choice.

Then all the lovely bloggers who have managed to read a book will post a review on their blogs too and then link up their posts over at the linky host. 

At which point we all visit each other's blogs, read each others reviews and leave comments with our thoughts and opinions. Wahoo.

But Mrs Readalot, I hear you say. I am much too busy to read. I have a life - fifteen children, six cats and a guinea pig. I spend my afternoons playing taxicab and my evenings darning socks. Your Book Club sounds fun and all but where would I find the time??

Mrs Readalot would love you to join in with her Book Club fun. So she gently suggests that maybe you could read some kids books to your darlings? And then write a post about the best ones? Isn't that kind of multi-tasking - reading and mummying all at once? Just a thought.

So that's how the Book Club runs.
