I've been procrastinating about adding review of the books I've read lately. It's hard to take a break and write a review because many times I'm reading a new series. I get so caught up in what will happen next, I move from book to book in a series intending to take a break and write the review. Inevitably, I postpone it, and postpone it some more until I've completed the books available in the series and can't recall where one book ended and the next began. It all becomes one big story.
Another reason for my procrastination is that I want to write better reviews, and that takes a lot of thought and time. Time I would rather spend searching for my next good read or series. I have got to do better... I know it. I want my reviews to be helpful and insightful, but not mushy in a Paul Abdul kinda way. I don't want to be mean either. I've found that people write reviews and comments online saying things that I doubt they would ever say face to face, and that's not who I want to be.
I also don't want to give away the story. I find that many of the reviews I read tell too much of the story. I think the book description should be enough. I'm more interested in what the reviewers thought about the story rather than them rehashing the story. I'm still trying to find my groove with this review thing, so if you're out there waiting to see what I've read, please forgive me for not posting. I have been reading. I will post reviews soon.
