I've written a couple of book reviews for my school newspaper. I go to a small school and only a few people ACTUALLY read the paper each week, and I'm sure only a fraction of those people take the time to read my reviews. Plus, there's not enough space in my section to do regular reviews.
So one night walking back to the PATH after a book reading, I came up with the idea for this blog. I hope to stick with it, even though I'm ridiculously busy, so hopefully it will go well.
This is basically how I want this to work:
- I'll try and post new content every week. Just something, whether it's a book, theatre, restaurant review. Whatever. I'm limiting myself to book reviews. That would be boring.
- I want to post at least one book review a week of a "new book" so one that's come out in the past year or so.
- Throwback Thursday: I'm hoping to do at least one review a week of an older book, so one that I read a while ago, but read again recently. If this is the case I'll explain how my reactions were different then and now.
- This is a major maybe at this point. I might try doing some vlog reviews of books where I hit record and just spontaneously talk about the book but I have to see how it goes. Literally putting my voice on the Internet seems creepy but cool.
