Time For A Comeback?

I haven't made a "real" post on this blog for over 4 years. I started reviewing books the summer before high school and stopped during my freshmen year of college. I've since graduated and now I'm in my second year of teaching 10th grade English.

I kind of want to start reviewing again and be involved in the community. I miss it!

Are any of you still out there?
