Read My Review: America


Read My Review, Hosted by A Trillian Books is a chance for book bloggers to share new and old reviews--all related to a theme.

What to do:

*Find one of your reviews that fits this week's theme (you can be as creative as you like when choosing what fits). It can be new or old, good or bad.
*Create a post on your blog explaining your book choice and leaving a link to your review there.
*Leave your link with Mr. Linky at the bottom of her post.
*Visit some of the other reviews and leave a "quality" comment (at least a couple of sentences).
*Grab the button and let people know about Read My Review.

This weeks theme is AMERICA--very fitting for this week following the Fourth of July celebrations (what am I saying, my neighbors aren't done celebrating yet. Fireworks going off as I write....).

Also fitting, I think, is my review of
Scorpions: The Battles & Triumphs of FDR's Great Supreme Court Justices by Noah Feldman. This book tells the story of some of the great supreme court justices who served during a very important point in US (and world) history. Appointed just as the world was heading into World War II and serving well into the Cold War era, these justices made a great impact on how our current courts interpret the constitution today. For a more complete scoop, please click the title for my review.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
