The idea behind this blog is to post reviews of books I read as I read them. I've fallen behind on my reading habits in recent years and now that I have access to two local libraries, I've been picking it up again. I'm hoping to keep it up and give myself a reading challenge for next year. So, ideally, this blog will be full of stuff, at least for the year.
My reading interests mostly involve low fantasy. I like ghosts, magic, witches, swords, and kingdoms. I enjoy the occasional romance novel, though I'm often frustrated by the formulas of that genre. I like some YA that doesn't follow the current trends of girl-faces-distopia. I'd like to read more graphic novels. I delve into other genres from time to time, and I have a few on my to-be-read list. I don't generally read non-fiction.
My reviews won't contain any in depth analysis of the novel's language, symbolism, or anything else of that sort. For me, a novel must contain relatable characters and an exciting plot that adds up to an engaging story. That will be the main criteria for reviews.
If I read a series, I'll be reviewing it all at once. So, time between reviews will vary. I may mix things up by reviewing books I've read previously. I don't have a set schedule for reviews planned. I'm thinking of trying to go with once a week or every other week or maybe just as I read things. We'll have to see.
Review ratings will consist of the following format:
And I think that's all we need to know to get started! I'm excited to see what the year will bring!
