I've decided to change some things on this blog. When I started this blog, I thought it would be great to comment on every book I read and have this huge book blog project going along with it. I planned to write, write, write about books.
Because I read a lot, and I mean a lot of books, I did not take into account how much time I would need to actually blog intelligently about them. I've been reading a lot of book blogs and seeing what's out there made me hungry to contribute to the book blog community, but I also wanted to do my own thing and not copy other people's ideas of book blogs.
Commenting about every book I read got tedious and I found I just didn't have time to keep up. So that's why the blog has been lagging the last couple of months.
I decided to take some time and think about whether I wanted to keep this blog or not.
I want to keep this blog going but will be changing it up a bit.
I am not planning on blogging or listing every book I read. You can go to my GoodReads page and friend me if you want to keep up with that information.
I am hoping to sit down and blog more in depth about books I particularly like or subjects on reading, books and blogging.
Change can be excellent!

GoodReads.com
Okay to add some punch to my book life. I just joined GoodReads. I'm totally overwhelmed but I loved rating the books and I like how they automatically found other books that I might be interested in reading. I found it a great way to find new books to read in my favorite genres. However, the whole media site overwhelmed me a bit.
Is anyone using GoodReads that could give me some advice on the best way to connect with others? I could not find a button or link I could put on my blog. Is there one? I do not automatically link social media sites with Facebook as I feel Facebook is becoming too intrusive and I want to use it to connect with people but do not want to share my whole entire life on the site. I am dreading the timeline. I think Mark Zuckerburg has lost his mind if he thinks everyone needs to post every move they make on the internet. Ahem, but I digress.
If any of my readers use GoodBooks, please let me know in the comments how I can link to you. It does seem like a great way to keep track of books you've read and share with others. Thanks!
