I won't be rereading them (usually), the reviews will just be based on my memory from way back when, and therefore they'll probably be a lot shorter. I just want to spread the word about some awesome books I used to love.
Sharing these books are important to me because without them, I never would've loved reading nearly as much as I do now! Most of these books fall into the category of Middle Grade- something I don't read often anymore, but I think is still a very important category to be discussed.
I know a lot of my followers are YA fiction fans, but I also want to encourage younger readers to pick up MG books, and who knows, maybe some older people would like these books too (I know I still love them!).
I hope this is a worthwhile feature. I know I've been wanting to find a way to spread the word about some of my favorite books growing up that still hold a special place in my heart. (Not to be too cheesy or anything!)
It won't be a regular thing- just whenever I feel like posting one. Look for the first review coming soon.
And I even designed a nifty little button to go along with it! This will be posted on every "Old Favorite" Review.
Sounds nifty! I've only done one such review; on a book I'd read over a year before and you're right: can't make them that long if you haven't just finished them.
ReplyDeleteGreat feature! :) And really cool button, too. :)

I like this idea a lot! (And what a cute button). Middle Grade is really important--and I know there are a lot of great ones out there.
ReplyDeleteThat is a really neat idea :)

Very cool, Ava! A lot of times I find myself wishing I could write a review for a book I read a long time ago and loved (or detested). Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for this feature! :)
