I'm a fairly new blogger and reading through my old posts made me extremely satisfied. I've read a lot of great books in just about 4 months! I don't think that blogging changed how much I read, it's just that I have a record now.
I loved Agnes Grey! I feel as though not enough people appreciate how wonderful Anne Bronte was.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about it being nice to keep a record of your reading. I think it has changed a little of how I read - I think about my own responses to what I read more than I did before. It hasn't changed the kind of things I read though.
Great post :-)
Thanks! In the post where I reviewed Agnes Grey, I mentioned how Anne Bronte is so often overlooked, but she's a really good writer.
DeleteI'm not blogging about a lot of the books I read, so I STILL forget about them. You're doing a great job keeping up with everything.
ReplyDeleteThank you. But you know, I was thinking the other day, "Boy, I really have reading ADHD." I picked up yet another book that I had no plans to read while stuff on my library pile languishes. Oh well.
DeleteDo you think Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie would be appealing to men as well as women? I almost bought my dad a copy for Father's Day but chickened out.
ReplyDeleteHm…that's a great question! Well, the author's a man. I really wouldn't know because my dad is an adamant nonfiction reader. Seriously, I have never known him to pick up a work of fiction, which I find insane.
