The Big Night!

The first ever One Minute Critic event was a big success!  There was a good turnout for the evening of book reviews, and almost 30 members of the public shared short reviews of books they had read.  Over 20 of those reviewers allowed me to video their reviews - they’ll be posted here on the blog and all the other places I put videos.  Super exciting!

Coming up in August, I’m hoping to video some more members of the community by traveling around with the bookmobile and meeting with some of our patrons who can’t get in to the library very often.

Another One Minute Critic evening program is already in the works, but it’s still a few months away yet.  I’ll keep you all posted.

In the mean time, I’m creating lists in WorldCat of all the reviews done so far, books given away at the OMC program, and books reviewed at the evening program, so look for links to those coming up.

One Minute Clockwork

“Clockwork,” by Philip Pullman, reviewed.
