I studied just enough Latin to remember that “puerile” literally means to act like a boy. I used to tell students who were being silly this, but it never impressed them. I wish I’d had more time and perseverance to stick at it.

I joined it a while back, and requested some books. Most I got approved for but was rejected for a small number of them, and one publisher didn't bother to get back to me.

I admit, I was annoyed by the explanation yesterday morning rather than the result. But by the afternoon I was over it and decided to look at Goodreads. It turns out that even my shorter reviews are too long for their platform (yes, I know I’m verbose, but making my own website means I do it the way I like). I made an account and posted 36 of my most recent reviews on the site. That is, I posted partial reviews ...

... with a link back to the complete Reading Project reviews. I figured, long term, it might let more people discover my site, and I’m setting myself up for more options down the track. Whatever happens, this site is core to what I am doing. Thanks for the feedback guys!

Reading Project stays the focus or we riot! But I do admit, you getting ARCs would be pretty cool
