This isn’t our intro post, it’s just an announcement on who is getting what books this year. Our intro post that will delve into how we rate, what our preferences are etc will be going up on Friday 😀
We’re dividing the books up so that Graham can have time to write as well as read and review. Kristen and I will each get 13 to start out with, and Graham will get four. When Kristen or myself hit a book we think is a semifinalist we will send it Graham’s way for his perspective. We hope to have between 3-6 semifinalists, we don’t have a set number, it’ll depend on our batch.
