It’s a busy time of year, so here’s a short to-do list to make sure you get everything done: Post all of your reviews and update your CBR8 leaderboard total before it ends at noon (EST) on New Year’s Eve. Register for CBR9. Send Mswas (by email or web) your 3 best books and 1 worst reviewed this year (WITH LINKS PLEASE) by December 22. It’s that easy! Thanks for supporting Cannonball Read this year. We’ve got some even bigger plans for number NINE. Please […]
Life is too short to read shitty books
But sometimes you did. And we loved it! You know it, the worst books often make The. Best. Reviews. (And trigger warnings.) I bet you have one particular book in mind, right? That piece of crap you struggled through so you could write your review, is it still in the corner where it landed after being hurled from your sight? Or did it go out in the trash? Why couldn’t that book be more like that other book? You know the one, the one you luuuuuurve. […]
Quick Questions with a Cannonballer: bonnie
(This is Cannonballer bonnie, not MsWas Bonnie. She’s got 128 reviews so far!) How many times have you participated in CBR? This is my fourth CBR (I started with CBR5).

Help Make This Year’s Donation Even Bigger

Normally at this time of year, I’d ask for help to keep this place running. But thanks to a donation in September from Eric and Tamara Yollick, our website hosting has been paid for through Cannonball Read 9! This is what the message with their donation said: We enjoy reading the reviews on your site. We have […]
Quick Questions with a Cannonballer: Malin
How many times have you participated in CBR? I’ve actually taken part since the start of November 2009, right when Cannonball Read II started. Back then the goal was to read 100 books, and checking back through my blog, I reached that goal by the end of October. I think I may be one of the participants who have kept going the longest, but it wasn’t until Cannonball Read III that I actually started reviewing absolutely every book I read. By then I’d realised that […]
