A Blog Chain for Books

[lostwanderer5]

We had a very interesting book review blog chain once, so anyone interested in doing it again. I don't see why it should be limited to calender month, so we can just start in a few days depending on interest.

All you have to do is a pick a book that you like and tell us why you like it, and if you recommend that we read it.

Interested?

I haven't been reading quite as much lately as I could be, but I think this could be fun. Count me in.

 

[lostwanderer5]

Cool Raven There you go, you have an incentive to pick up a new book.

 

[DavidZahir]

I'm interested.

Sure, but can we formalise the chain a bit more? i.e. post-specific links at the top to the previous and next review in the chain.

 

[shethinkstoomuch]

I'm interested!

Yes, sure. And we will add links to all participants' blogs as well.

 

[lostwanderer5]

When do you guys want to start?

 

[veinglory]

Next week?

 

[Lady Cat]

Count me in too, book chains are lots of fun.

This time you can use my Random Thoughts blog: http://randomwriterlythoughts.blogspot.com

Next week sounds good to me too. Should give me a chance to finish my book cover, and reading the book i've got, and decide what to review.

 

[DavidZahir]

Next week is fine by me. Hopefully, I'll have finished the (so far, excellent) novel I'm reading.

 

[lostwanderer5]

Sorry guys, disappeared there for the weekend. Blame EA for new Sims 3 expansion.

Okay, I have added Lady Cat, and updated Vein Glory's blog.

Since we want to start this week, anyone free to do a post first? I will probably take a day or two, so if someone else is happy to go first, that would be great.

 

[DavidZahir]

I already have mine ready, so I can go first if you like.

 

[lostwanderer5]

Thanks David. I have moved your name to the top. Please post yours and let us know here.

 

[DavidZahir]

Okay the first post is up.

 

[lostwanderer5]

mine will be up by tomorrow. And David, promise to comment on yours by tomorrow too.

 

[Lyra Jean]

Is it too late to join up? I want to add my blog: Beyond Tourism: Florida's Yesteryear

 

[lostwanderer5]

Rosemerry,

no, not late all. I have added you.

 

[lostwanderer5]

[lostwanderer5]

My post is up http://lostwanderer5.blogspot.com/2009/11/night-book-review.html

 

[RavenCorinnCarluk]

Well, I shall get to working on mine. Was updating other parts of my blog while cooking yesterday.

I've commented on the posts already up, but my phone browser is being wonky, so I don't know if the comments actually took.

 

[RavenCorinnCarluk]

All done. It's short, but I've never really studied making reviews. Hopefully I can learn something from everyone.
