Anything Goes On Saturday - Dewey's Review Questionaire

"Anything Goes on Saturday" is a meme hosted by Yvonne of Socrates' Book Reviews. It's a chance to choose any topic you want and talk about it on Saturday - it can be about a book, TV show, movie, a recipe or just an update on your week. Whatever you choose. 

Those of us, who have been blogging for more than 4 years, we all knew Dewey. Most of what we see in the book blog world is in fact, what Dewey wanted for us...the networking, the connections with each other. She left all of us, to be one with GOD, but is still there in our hearts. 

Today, I am reproducing here, Dewey's Review Questionaire for all. I have used it in its entirity or part of it in many of my reviews. I find this very useful when I don't have much time to think. This questionaire has all the relevant questions which ought to be asked of any review.

Feel free to use it but do mention Dewey. She is no longer there, her blog is no longer there, unless it is in your google reader, where all her posts are retained. But she lives on....
