- Latest Review: You, This Is Me...OVER?! by Clinton Beaudel Dooley
Thank you all so much! It is an honor indeed! Prior to joining OBC I had never really read book reviews and I have found writing them to be a rather fun challenge and a great learning experience! After having written a few of my own, I have come to appreciate the hard work the writers here put into the reviews. Writing a good review takes time and it takes so many different skills - from understanding grammar and punctuation to understanding your audience and having the ability to express your opinion, both objectively and subjectively. Some of you are goat-crazy-good at it when you really stop to think about it and you make it look so easy, when it's actually not! Thank you again! I'm so glad to be a part of the team!bookowlie wrote: As we usher in the holiday season, it’s time to pass the crown to another deserving member. Drumroll please…the December 2021 Member of the Month is Bigwig1973! A member since April 2020, Bigwig1973 is an avid reader and counts Dostoevsky among her favorite authors. Her reviews are insightful, and she routinely supports other reviewers through her thoughtful comments. Bigwig1973 embodies the spirit of OBC through her varied contributions on the site. She participates in a wide range of discussions, including cooking, films, grammar, music, and, of course, reading. In addition, Bigwig1973 can often be found answering questions in the Review Team Support Forum. She is a well-rounded member who even whips up tomato/peach/mango/papaya salsa on occasion! Please join me in congratulating Bigwig1973!
