Carnegie Shortlist Announced!

The Carnegie shortlist has been announced and in a flash the books are in the Library! They will be read by the Friday Library Group first but if you're not in the group and would like to read one please speak to me and I'll reserve you a copy. See the list opposite. I'd like reviews to be sent to the Shadowing site but you can also send them to me to post on this blog. Let me know what you think of the shortlisted books - are they boring, too old, too serious, or what? Comments here please!

Shadowing the Carnegie at JHA

The JHA Library Group is waiting in eager anticipation for the Carnegie shortlist announcement on 20 April. We already have some of the longlist titles which the group have been reading, but the real excitment starts with the shortlist announcement. Once we get these books in we'll be able to post reviews on the Carnegie website (www.ckg.org.uk) and hopefully put some reviews / recommendations here too.

The pic shows a few members of the group gearing up for the Shadowing process. You can see the excitement of these keen readers! :)

If anyone who is not in the Library Group would like to review books for the Carnegie website or indeed for this blog, I would be happy to receive them!
