Georgia Center For the Book Has a Stylin’ New Website

Check it –
We at the Wren’s Nest are no strangers to the benefits of a dope new website.
Here’s what ours looked like before:
The above picture used to be our entire site. And now just look around you for our critically acclaimed (guess what! I just became a critic!) after.
So, we’re happy for our chums over at Georgia Center for the Book. Not that there was anything particularly lacking in their old website, but man! This is sharp.
I especially like this new site because it makes their reading lists easy to find, and you know what? I love lists. All of ‘em.
Now, while their Books All Georgians Should Read lists don’t exactly apply to me, I will let this slide on two accounts:
- The book I am currently reading, The Book of Marie by Terry Kay, is on the 2008 list.
- A little fellow (literally–he was pretty short) named Joel Chandler Harris made it too, with his Uncle Remus: The Complete Tales, in 2002.
Now, are you ready to have your mind blown? The protagonist in The Book of Marie is a (Joel Chandler) Harris scholar!
I said, !!!
I suggest you take the rest of the day off to get your wits about you.
