For Week 1, I completed the children's book quiz with 19/20 (woohoo!) I probably didn't need to know about this site because I found lots of other quizzes with which I could completely lose track of time. I did pretty well with the adult covers quiz, too, with 10/12. The Golden Rules of Reader's Advisory echoed some things we recently discussed at our LATI sessions. The child's take on judging books by their covers was a fun premise but sort of underwhelming after reading about a dozen of them. For assignment 4, I've chosen to follow npr.org/books (I already read Early Word and Goodreads) and Stop You're Killing Me, which was recently mentioned at an LATI class. Keeping tabs on the NPR books page will be helpful because titles that are featured on NPR often turn into requests, so this will help me to keep up with what our customers are looking for. In addition, I selected Stop You're Killing Me because we have many mystery readers at the branch who report that they have "read everything." I hope that this blog will give me some new ideas for suggestions for these customers.
