apple_pathways: Whatever floats your boat! (Help I'm Being Repressed!)
The book meme is off to a fantastic start! Thank you so much to everyone who's jumped into the fray! If you haven't had a chance to check it out yet, do head on over: there's some great recs posted. (I found a new cookbook! Woo hoo!) Leave a request, or a rec: find a good book! (And if you're so inclined, spread the love! ♥ Here's the banner code if you're willing to help me pimp.)

So, you know how I was talking about making a meme where people can share books recommendations? Well, I went and did it! As with most things I do, it's probably monstrously over-planned, but I think it could be fun if it gets off the ground!

And that's where I need your help, dear Flist: first, would you help me promote it by copying and pasting the code provided and displaying my banner on your journal? (Click the banner yourself to go the meme!)





Second: I need your help getting it off the ground! So, if you've got a moment, think about your favorite book and write up a quick recommendation for it. Looking for something to read? Describe the type of book you're looking for! (Remember: the templates I provided are optional! If you'd rather just throw out a couple sentences about why Sweet Valley High #17 was the best book ever written, but all means: DO IT! :D

Have I mentioned lately how much I love you all? *puppy eyes* (Don't make me beg!!!) :P

(OH! And if you notice any errors or have any advice, do let me know!)

How does a book rec meme work?


5 EASY STEPS TO REC SUCCESS:

  1. Find the genre/type of book you're looking for in the comments! The following genre/types are listed in alphabetical order:

    Chick Lit
    Children's and Young Adult Lit
    Classics
    Contemporary Literature
    Fantasy
    Historical Fiction
    Horror
    Manga, Comics, and Graphic Novels
    Mystery/Detective/Crime
    Non-Fiction
    Romance
    Science Fiction
    Thrillers
    and "Other" (For any genre or type not already listed.)

  2. Click 'reply to this' on the comment with the genre you're looking for. If you're recommending a book, type "RECCING" in the Subject line of your comment. If you're requesting a recommendation, type "REQUESTING".
  3. Either copy, paste, and fill out the handy forms provided, or describe in your own words the book you're recommending or looking to read.
  4. Browse the other recommendations that have already been left. Read the rec requests other participants have left, and make suggestions for books you think they might like.
  5. Share the love! ♥ Copy and paste the following code into your journal to send your friends to the meme:





It's that easy! ;)


Just remember:

* Keep it civil, or suffer the consequences! (Consequences TBD, but may include deletion, bannination, or unsightly rash.)
* DO NOT "Post a new comment"! To keep things tidy, please post all comments as a reply to an existing comment. Misplaced comments will be removed: it doesn't mean you're a bad person. :P
* If you need to ask me something or get my attention, either PM me or post a reply under the "Questions" thread, otherwise I may not see it.

Happy Reading! ♥
