July #ARCParty
I got some new books while I was away in Ohio so the girls and I decided that last night was a great night for an impromptu ARC party. For those of you new to TLT, here’s how an ARC Party works: The Tween and The Bestie go through each title, reading the back cover info aloud to one another. After examining the covers, they then give each book a yeah or nay, letting me know if they are interested in reading each title. Here are the books we looked at last night and their initial reactions.
