Why the long silence

I’ve been reading… and writing, and thinking about what I’ve been reading. But, I have been jotting down notes on a private database since I am on the 2008 Notable Children’s Books Committee and must read quicker and write more notes about them — so I have not had time to craft more coherent reading journal entries. But, they will be coming soon. I have quite a bit to say about quite a few books published in 2007!
