Like to read? Me too!

Allow me to officially welcome you to "Alison's Reads". I have never been a reviewer of anything nor have I blogged before. So, this is a first attempt at both. I figured since I love reading and writing, I might as well give it a try! You happen to be lucky enough to read a newbie blogger/reviewer....or if you follow NCIS, you could call me a "probationary blogger" and call me "Probie". Okay, bad joke. Anyway, I do hope you enjoy my reviews!

Waiting...

I signed up with Bethany House Publishers yesterday as an "official book reviewer". So now I am just waiting for a response from them. I have to say, I am excited about being an "official book reviewer". It sounds like an important thing, doesn't it? I don't know if there is an actual thing called an "official book reviewer" but I like the name...almost as much as I like "Probie". But that is only because NCIS is my favorite TV show and I just have to honor them with the reference to "Probie".

Anyways, I changed my blog template! Like it? I think it is comforting. It is how I imagined myself as an "official book reviewer"...sitting and reading the book under a comfortable blanket with a cup of hot chocolate in hand -- or on the table next to me. It'd be hard to read a book and hold a cup of hot chocolate because if you are anything like me, that hot chocolate would either end up all over my comfortable blanket, or all over the book. I'm sure Bethany House would NOT appreciate their books being covered and ruined by hot chocolate, especially if I can't review it. Then I would probably no longer be an "official book reviewer" and I would put shame to name "Probie" and this blog would be utterly pointless. So, let's avoid that and leave the hot chocolate on the table.
