Surprise! Calendar Girls Books is back! As you can tell from the header, there have been some changes made to it though. Firstly, Melanie and myself will no longer be hosting the event. We stopped doing Calendar Girls late last year / early this year (I forget the exact date). Secondly, our friends (and former Calendar Girls participants) Katie @ Never Not Reading and Adrienne @ Darque Dreamer Reads have decided to adopt the event! Yay! I’m so glad that it will be active again. I had a lot of fun with the event, but running it, along with other blog stuff, and other real life responsibilities just wasn’t realistic for me anymore. I’m excited to return to Calendar Girls as a participant, though, starting with the first post which will be going up August 6th though!
From Katie @ Never Not Reading: Calendar Girls is a monthly blog event created by Melanie at MNBernard Books, and Flavia at Flavia the Bibliophile, and will now be hosted by me (!), Katie. It is designed to ignite bookish discussions among readers, and was inspired by the 1961 Neil Sedaka song, Calendar Girl……

ALSO, PLEASE REMEMBER THAT YOUR CHOICE FOR AUGUST HAS TO BE KEPT SECRET UNTIL POSTS GO UP ON AUGUST 6TH! KEEPING YOUR POST A SECRET UNTIL POSTING DAY IS A MAJOR PART OF CALENDAR GIRLS, AND I DON’T WANT YOU TO SPOIL THINGS FOR YOURSELF BY ACCIDENT! IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE EVENT, PLEASE BE SURE TO ASK KATIE OR ADRIENNE (LINKS TO THEIR BLOGS PROVIDED IN THE POST ABOVE)! HAVE FUN EVERYONE AND PLEASE BE SURE TO COMMENT BELOW IF YOU’D LIKE TO CHAT ABOUT THIS EVENT WITH ME!
I am so glad that the Calendar Girls are back, and I look forward to participating alongside all the other wonderful bloggers of this community who join in as well.
Yaaaay I hope that you’ll be able to join us!
I think I will do this. Sounds fun. 🙂
Yaaaay! Hope to see you join! 😀
Thanks. I’m excited to be a part of this.
I didn’t know about this meme but it sounds fun! Will check them soon!
Yeah! And it’s once per month rather than once per week, so it’s pretty easy to keep up with 🙂
I always love seeing events picked back up by other bloggers and friends! It is nice to see this one back in action I may have to consider it if time decides to ever allow.
Me too! One of my memes I actually ended up adopting from 2 of my blogger friends hehehe. And I hope that you’ll be able to join us! Especially since the event takes place once a month rather than once a week 🙂 so it’s easy to keep up with!
