Week 9: Assignment 3

I feel that "Be More Bookish" was a very useful tool in becoming more comfortable with unfamiliar genres.  It might be helpful to be able to spend more time on a specific genre or age group.  If we could perhaps focus on Teens, Children, Adults, separately, it might be possible to absorb more information. All in all, I learned quite a bit, discovered many new resources that I intend to regularly use, and I now have a much longer list of books I want to read!
