The Awkward Introduction.

Books are like boyfriends.
There's ups and downs to being in a relationship with them. 
On one hand, you love them. They provide comfort , excitement, and a sense of safety. On the other, they can distract you from your responsibilities, keep you up late at night, and seclude you from the rest of the world. They can also disappoint you. 
Yet there's nothing like finding the perfect one.

In continuance with the boyfriend metaphor, this blog could be compared to an online dating service. It's a way to see what's out there,
( and also to find sympathy in the daily woes 
of the bookworm herself, *cough cough*, me )
I plan to interview everyone i know, as well as people i don't know, to see what's new in the book community. It's also my hope that you out there (whoever you are) will join in, commenting on the books mentioned and sharing whatever your reading. I'm sure along the way we'll encounter the good, the bad, and the ugly, but know its all worth when you settle down with a good book.

Read on!


"That is a good book which is opened with
expectation and closed in profit."
