Yeah, I know there are a hundred book blogs. Most are genre specific.
This is not one of those blogs.
I started reading at about two years old, so at forty-four... that's a lot of books. I read widely, and I'm not intimidated by any genre. I just like to read!
Some might know me from my work at Fictionista Workshop, where I am in charge of the "Courting The Classics" program. In that milieu, I encourage writers to also be readers; to take the best of what's out there and make it part of themselves. I truly believe that literacy is the mark of a society in growth, and the stories that make up our cultural underpinning are massively important to read and understand.
However, I read more than classics, and have been feeling the urge to share my thoughts on the things I read, see, and listen to with a larger group. So here I am!
Feel free to take what you will from these reviews. I love to debate books, and I don't care if we're in agreement or not. The important thing is to read.
