Dear Bloggers,
My name is Lauren and I am new to the blogging world. I've dabbled in it before, but usually for some class assignment. This time, I've decided to do something for me... isn't that nice! For the content of this blog, I wanted to talk about the one true and ever changing love of my life...wait for it... BOOKS! If you are an avid reader, you understand my sentiment. There's nothing like walking into the book store (whether that be Barnes and Noble, Borders, Books A Million, etc--I don't discriminate!), having no time constraints, and just cruising your way through every single shelf filled with amazing possibilities. It's the best feeling in the world to look at a book's cover (and yes, sometimes I do judge a book by it), reading the inside and perhaps the first couple of pages and just knowing THAT book you HAVE to take home. No matter if you have $17 left in your bank account, you'll charge the extra $4 that it'll take to get the hardcover copy!
So before you end reading this pseudo love letter to books, I wanted to extend a welcome to my blog. As often as I can, I'll be updating it with new insights and discoveries of author's and books... and of course, detailing my reaction (without, I hope, too many spoilers) to each book I read. I really hope you enjoy, and I would love to here your comments and feedback... but be nice!
-Lauren
Hey! This is so awesome that you're doing this. Duh! It makes so much sense, especially for YOU to do it. I created a tiny URL for your blog site for you to use on twitter, etc: http://tinyurl.com/lnb8ov
ReplyDeleteI'd also love to give a shout out to Resilience by Alonzo Mourning. Excellent read - not just a sports book, but also a LIFE book.
Proudly your 1st follower,
