So I may have been a bit lax in my reviews this past year or two. To be fair, I had to deal with spring quarter of third year, the nerves of going into fourth year, and then fourth year itself. 12 months of 24/7 learning and feeling like a complete idiot most of the time. I did still manage to find time to read but as writing about the readings is not really all that appealing to me, I could not find time to keep up with this. Now that I am out of school, moved to the other side of the country, have a job, and am starting to actually live a life, I thought I might give this a try again. Possibly because I just read some books that would love to be written up and one of the characters from a trilogy I just finished is a book blogger. Reading about her love and passion for books sparked mine. I am the first to admit she is much more dedicated than I am and much less picky. Still it will be interesting to see how long this lasts this time.
I am going to try to be much more succinct and general when discussing a book. My previous posts were way too long and was part of the reason I stopped posting.... I dreaded spending all that time regurgitating what I had just read. I will try to bring up points I thought were important, particularly enjoyed, or downright disagreed with. Other than that, I will try to avoid going into too much depth. I will assume anyone who wanders accidentally onto this page and reads a post will have actually read the book before and so will not need the play-by-play I tried to provide earlier. And if I can't remember enough about the book based on the blurb I write about it, well then I guess I will just have to read the book again. Such a tough life. ;)
I have read many books over the years and now can't remember exactly why I liked or disliked a book or why a character sounds so familiar. This blog is my way of improving my memory. I will be reviewing and discussing books that I read, as/after I read them. Do not read a post if you have not read the book and you want to! I am not holding anything back so many plot lines will potentially be ruined. I cannot be held responsible for any ruination of these books, as you have had fair warning. Any comments, discussions, or recommendations are welcome.
