A warm welcome to all the homeschoolers new to this blog. I was homeschooled through high school with my 4 siblings, so you will surely find a kindred spirit in my mother!

Speaking of this blog, tomorrow marks its (her?) 1st birthday. One year of disciplining myself to read, process, and discuss outside the borders of book club. The experiment has become a lifestyle. Thanks for all the comments!

Thanks to Janie at Seasonal Soundings for posting a thorough (and agreeable!) review of our History Lives series.

At Sherry’s invitation, I checked out her “Saturday Review of Books” (most recent installment here). Great idea. Catch up on what folks are reading as well as post a link to your own recent review.

And before you write that next review, check out “Tips for Successful Book Reviewing” from the National Book Critics Circle.

CNN reports that novelist William Styron, author of Sophie’s Choice, died Wednesday.
