Welcome!

Hello! Welcome to the community! I'm very excited about the community and its potential for great conversations about all bookish things!

Ideally, I would like to increase the amount of posting to this community to at least one post a day. So, if you are currently reading a book, or if you have just finished reading a book, please consider making a post to the community! Unfortunately, despite my vast amounts of energy, I am currently in Finals-'O-Doom-Mode. For those of you that don't know me, I'm [personal profile] jennem on both Dreamwidth & Livejournal ([livejournal.com profile] jennem). I'm also a 3L (third year law student) at a Top 15 law school which means that I am smack-dab in the middle of my last round of Finals 'O Doom. And, since I'm actually interested in graduating in a few weeks, most of my time is going to be spent studying for the Finals 'O Doom instead of reading books that are vastly more entertaining than casebooks.

After I finish Finals 'O Doom, I go straight into BarBri and studying for the bar. The bar is in late July, and after that I'm off on the honeymoon that Mr. [personal profile] jennem and I postponed at the beginning of the year. I'll be able to devote myself to developing this community (hosting monthly book clubs and other types of admin-run activities) by mid-August, and since my Big!Law firm decided to push back start dates until Nov., I'm betting that you'll eventually get tired of my posts! :D In the mean time, please feel free to post your book recommendations, reviews, or requests for recommendations/information.

If you have any questions or comments about the community, please feel free to make them to this post or the FAQ-post. (If I don't respond, its not because of something you've said—its because I'm busy being neurotic until July 31!) I look forward to getting to know all of you, and I look forward to all of your reviews and recommendations!

Is cross-posting okay? I just posted a review to [community profile] a_reader_is_me and I'd be happy to post or cross-post it here. :)

Good luck on the Bar!
