New Library
I recently added a new Library page to the blog, which is also in the top menu. This page represents a collection of the books on my bookshelf, right next to me every time I am on the computer that are related to this blogs content (I have a lot of books!).
I put in my personal reviews of each book too, if you are interested in my opinions on each, along with a rating. These are books that have helped me along my healing process and wanted to share. I hope to add a section of “Therapist Recommended” books soon, some of which are included already. These will be books that my therapist has recommended to me over the years.
In a continued effort to raise money for my favorite non-profit iSurvive, each books individual page has a link where you can buy the book from Amazon. Each book (or most anything else for that matter!) purchased through the Library through this link will raise 4% of the total purchase for iSurvive! All proceeds go directly to the organization, and not to me in any way.
iSurvive – Blogging for a Cause
I previously wrote a post about “iSurvive – Blogging for a Cause” (Part 2), which is another great way to support this organization. We have until June 6th to get votes in, but are already in the running for some of the $6,000 prize money, which is amazing! As of today we were tied for 4th/5th place with 6 votes. If you run a blog and would like to support this cause, please write a post before midnight on the 6th! Click here for a current tally of all votes.
