Are you a voracious middle school reader? Do you want to be the first person to read a potential books to put on our library shelves? Join the Beta Reader Book Club.
What is a beta reader?
In the publishing world, a beta reader is someone who reads a book while it is still in the drafting process and gives the author feedback on how to improve. In our library, beta readers will be my eyes and ears for assessing whether or not a book should be put on our library shelves.
In order to be a beta reader, you must:
Get a parent/guardian's permission
Read the entire book
Write a 2-3 paragraph book review when you finish the book
Give a final recommendation for whether you think the book is appropriate for our library.
Why would I want to be a beta reader?
If you love to read, then you get first dibs on brand new books before they're even put on the library shelves.
This book club is open to 7th and 8th graders.
See Mrs. Shaum for more information and a permission form.
