The "she" of the headline is blogger Jen Forbus, who blogs at Jen's Book Thoughts, one of the mystery book blogs that I check daily. She reviews mysteries in virtually all genres, with particular emphasis on mysteries available as audiobooks. She also does great author interviews. And she is involved in a fair number of reading challenges, some of which she has originated herself.
For the past couple of years, Jen has also sponsored a "theme week" for other book bloggers, inviting us to post reviews and other material on our blogs, with links to her theme week (often including her own version of "March Madness" in the form of a contest). Now, as the headline says, she's at it again, inviting other book bloggers to join her for a week in mid-April to talk about "Heroes and Villains." The idea is for participants to post a review of a mystery featuring a particular hero - or villain - along with an additional post with background about that hero or villain. If you're a book blogger (and I know a number of my readers are), it sounds like a great deal of fun; if not, I promise you it will be worth reading the entries and taking part in whatever contest accompanies the festivities. Full details (and a sign-up form for bloggers) may be found here.
