Top Bookish News of The Past Week


Here are all of the top bookish stories, blog posts, pictures, and videos I found this past week. I put this post up every Sunday so come back again next week for more bookish awesomeness.
Click away and enjoy your Sunday!


ARTICLES

Goodreads thanks its users after hitting the 20 million member mark. That is a lot of readers!

If you live in London and are trying to find a significant other that reads and has similiar literary tastes then you are in luck. The book review website Omnivore can now hook you up. Very interesting indeed.

Find out what the horrible "disease" Libramnesia is. It will make you super sad. 

The ten-pound note will feature Jane Austen in 2017. Now that is pretty cool.

Read the first three chapters of the next I Am Number Four novel. I have yet to read these books but I hope to get around to it some day. 

I am a pretty big fan of Arrested Development so when I found out one if its stars is part owner of a book store I got a little giddy. I give props to Jeffrey Tambor for being awesome. 

Do you read Shelf Awareness? If not than you should check out their Saturday newsletter to see their story "Amazon's Declaration of War'. It's all about Amazon pricing their books even cheaper than normal.
BLOG POSTS

Two different blogs that I follow, Confessions of a Book Addict and The Book Addict's Guide, had great posts about young adult books that adults would also enjoy. Read and spread the young adult love with other adults out there. 

More controversy around the book "Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson has popped up. A very huge frustrated sigh on this.
