In 2021, Amy's Bookshelf Reviews added the option of a YouTube Featured Review, along with the creation of Amy's Bookshelf Reviews YouTube Channel.
Also, the Library was created in place of just the bookshelf page, and other bookshelves were offered. "Repeat" Authors are no considered Legacy Authors (once they make their second request, and when it's posted, they are free to get a Legacy author badge). Author Representatives are also now considered "Legacy Friends" with their own badge.
Recently, a few "Special" Lists were added. The top 10 books of 2021, and top 20 authors are still lists, and in 2022, the top ten books will show the book cover, not just the title and author name. In 2022, the new list "Noteable Non-Fiction" books will be added. These lists get reset each year.
Amy's Bookshelf Reviews added new lists such as "Terrifying True Crime books" which feature the book covers, and "Awesome Audiobooks" which also shows the book cover. These pages will not be reset each year.
Just the other day, I added the "Charitable Books" page, so any book that I have read in the past, or will read (as it's on one of my bookshelves), if proceeds (any amount) go to a charity, let me know, and I'll add the book and charity information to that page. This page will not be reset each year.
I reopened the Book Reviewers Directory, so if you're a book reviewer or book blogger, and your name isn't on there, let me know by sending an email, giving me the details. (The Directory is FREE). If you wish to be on the Bulletin Board, that is $50, but it is placed on three different bulletin boards on other sites that I manage.
I have slightly changed the look of the website, and added "how-to" videos for help with navigation. On the main page, There are direct links to specific pages, and the icon with the logo, goes right to the blog with the reviews.
Hope you all have a wonderful holiday season. The pages that reset, do it on December 31, 2021.
As always, if you want a review, you know where to get one, and just an FYI, I expanded the December late request for releases, so the $20 donation will cover releases in December (at least 24 hours notice).
