There are countless book bloggers in the country, but there’s about a dozen busybodies who really stand out, and do some truly exciting things. In the case of Erin Balser and Jen Knoch, some of these bookish types do multiple great things. Like Books in 140 seconds: a Keepin’ it Real Bookclub co-project between Jen and Erin. They video the two of them reviewing a book … in 140 seconds. They do it well, a great blend of summary and selling points. Watch their take on Jessica Grant’s multi-award-winning, so-very fantastic Come, Thou Tortoise, and Joey Comeau’s — yes, that guy from asofterworld.com – One Bloody Thing After Another.

Thanks for the kind words, Chad! Nice to come back from vacation to! We’ll try our best to keep delivering exciting things — let us know if you ever want to partner up on something!
Partnering up would be fun. And I’ll certainly look forward to posting any Books in 140 Seconds clips you do for books by Atlantic Canadians, since you don’t seem to mind. And link to any relevent KIRBC posts!

Sounds like you should start an Atlantic chapter of the real-life book club! (Doooo it. It’s fun. Promise.) And I’ll be sure to send any Maritimey material your way. Between Erin’s Atlantic roots and my 4-year stay, we’re definite east-coast sympathizers!
