Lianne (eclecticreading) | 76 comments Hi everyone! Sorry mods if this isn't allowed, but I was just wondering who here keeps a book blog (or booktube (I think that's what it's called?) or book tumblr (I forgot what people are calling it :3))? I'd love to check your blogs out :)

My book blog can be found at eclectictales.com. I review maybe 80% of the books I read over there :)

You're perfectly fine! I don't keep one myself, but I would love to see anyone else's! ^_^ I read yours sometimes and love it, the design is cute.


message 3: by Melissa (new)

Melissa (eris_discord42) | 35 comments I used to write a "Literary Friday" piece on my blog. I wrote about all of the Jane Austen books before I stopped. My blog is a rather eclectic, geeky blog and those posts didn't seem to work with my small audience.
Pity, I love reading and discussing books. So glad to have joined Goodreads and this group.


message 4: by Katie (new)

Katie Kempski (darthphasma) | 120 comments I checked out both your blogs, and I love them! Lianne, you have awesome commentary (plus you review some of my absolute favorite books. ;D), and I love how you bring attention to little details that I miss. ;3 And Melissa, you should do some more literary fridays! Your Jane Austen reviews are delightful (omg I HATE EMMA TOO)! But your fandom fridays are pretty cool too. Maybe literary tuesday? Haha!

I was thinking of starting a blog, but I'm not doing it for the readership or anything. I just need to get thoughts out on paper. Screen. w/e. But here's the thing: I want to review terrible books. Or books I dislike. And do it sort of sardonically? Is that rude?

I suppose that it is my blog though, so I can do what I want. Mwahaha!

Absolute power corrupts absolutely...

Liv (liviebutton) At the moment I only booktube, although I've been bad of late. But there will be a video up this Saturday regarding International Women's Day (and my favorite women authors). ;D

Aww, thanks Elizabeth! I'm so happy to have finally found a layout that I like for my blog :)))

Aww, sorry to read that you stopped. It can be a little hard sometimes with what audience you have, but I second Katie, you should do more Literary Fridays! :) Off to check out your blog in a little while ;)

Aww, thanks so much for the kind words Katie! Hee, when I started my blog, it was really to keep track of my thoughts a la an electronic book journal. I still think of it that way, only now I discuss books with fellow readers and stuff :)

Hmm, well, you're not advertising it to readership/for book publicity/to the authors so it should be fine? (that many terrible books/books you disliked, eh? ;)) Like you said, your blog, haha; I ponder only because there's been some discussions/debates/err, arguments floating around recently about it *shrugs* *doesn't really know though* xD

Kathy (kathytrithardt) | 1 comments Hey friends! I just joined ♥️ I do BookTube things pretty regularly, including weekly wrap ups of everything I read, watch, and listen to, so I figured I would stop by to say hi and link to that in case anyone is interested.
