So...there's a new design feature if you use blogger - it's incredibly easy and takes 5 minutes to set up a whole new look for your blog. So, since we've been looking pretty bleah, I tried it out. I'm not sure if this is final, but I love that it's bright and cheerful.
A few new things:
Our Shelfari widget is at the bottom of the page. It's nice and large and shows all the newest books on our TBR list. We previously had a tiny little spurt of a shelf.
Past blog posts as well as labels are also at the bottom of the page.
Please let us know what you think - we're very open to critique here, so comment and tell me what you'd change, add, undo...whatever you like! Thanks!
Readers of Juvenile and Young Adult Fiction, with a smattering of Picture Books, Adult Fiction, and Non-Fiction. Disclaimer: All books were received as gifts, purchased, or checked out from the library. As of now, no publishing company pays us or gives us books to review.
Sticky Notes
Books and Bikinis Reading Challenge - read 10 books about mermaids, the sea, the beach...by the end of the summer! hopefully soon!

Please be patient with the fewer and far-between posts....we have a new 'half' born in April and things are slow as we adjust and try desperately for more sleep. (It's a girl!)

I like it, it is cheery, but not too much. It's whimsical. I think the archive on the bottom saves space, keeps sidebars clean.
This looks great! Definitely love the brighter tones.
I did a very similar thing with my blog.. much more bright and welcoming.
You have an award at http://tampabookworm.blogspot.com/
Have a great week!
