I’m a Thomas Nelson Book Reviewer!

I have to say, I love the Internet and the opportunities it has afforded me lately. It’s sweet!

Today I discovered that I could become a book reviewer for the publisher Thomas Nelson. What that means is that if you have a blog, you can sign up to be a reviewer. Once you’ve signed up, you can choose one of their upcoming books from a small list of your interests. They then ship it to you. You read it, review it (200 words or more) and post it on your blog as well as on Amazon. How sweet is that?

Pretty sweet!

So, for my debut review, I will be covering Lynne Spears’ (with Lorilee Craker) new book Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame, and Family in a Tabloid World.

Now, it will be some time before I get the book and read it. But the review will be right here on my blog. And although I am not a fan of Britney Spears nor have I really followed her story, I must admit that my curiosity has been tweaked by how things have turned out for this family. This book, for me, is an insider’s view on what really happened and I’m sure Lynne is about to dish (at least a little bit): “I’m not terribly exciting, truth be told. But my family has had an exceptional journey—really, a wild ride—and people think they know us from what they read. But they really don’t know us at all.” Exactly! That’s why I’m so curious about her book! And of course, I am also curious due to the whole car crash factor. So stay posted! And if you have your own blog, come build your library, it is a fantastic deal for the publisher and for you!
