Welcome to my CrazyQuilts blog! The focus of what I do is to provide information to improve the literacy of teens and preteens of color. I provide information about technology tools, scholarships, internships, library developments, books and authors that may have appeal to those of African, Caribbean Latino, Asian or Native American descent.
I’d be happy to consider reviewing books, webservices or other technologies that address literacy.
With respect to books:
While most of the books I review are found in my school library, I am happy to accept upcoming books for review.
Please know that I review books written by authors of color and/or that feature teens and preteens of color as main characters and that will be available for purchase in the US. I accept books from all genres however I do not accept self published books. During the school year, it may take me 1-3 months to prepare and ‘publish’ reviews.
I am not a professionally trained reviewer, however I do see a need to be responsible in providing reviews to my readers. As such, I provide my own honest opinion about what I read and keep honing my talents to provide useful and insightful information in what I write. I do also provide some author interviews and giveaways.
I do not sell books that are given to me! I either add them to my school library or pass them along.
