Thank you everyone for the support, encouragement and spreading the word for the Weekly Roundups.
Starting this week, I will also add a small review of each Post that I choose. In the past I have either just posted a link or a half line intro to the post.
Considering the fact that more people are reading these posts than they did when I started posting them, I feel obligated to provide more than just an intro and a link. I started these roundups as a way of sharing what I read, which is one of my goals for doing this blog, but as we progressed, I realized that I was providing a valued service as one of the readers pointed out.
So, I decided to take the providing the service part a little more seriously and start writing a mini review of some of the posts that impressed me most. I am including the link to the reviews where I have written them. I am hoping that this will be more time efficient for you in picking and choosing the ones you want to read, rather than clicking on them and then deciding if this is something you want or not.
Enjoy!!
