Question --

[feuervogel]

I've been posting book reviews to my pro blog. Does anyone here want me to crosspost them? Does anyone care enough about my opinions on books to want to read them?

I'm always up for reading others' book reviews, so would be happy to see them here! Or on your pro blog; where is that?

[feuervogel]

I'm glad to crosspost or link-drop. I don't get into a lot of detail in them, mostly just give a quick summary of the plot and say what I think about the story.

Right on. :) Dropped the link into my Google Reader!

:D

Right now I'm trying to figure out what to say about Shades of Milk and Honey that isn't "OMG GO BUY THIS BOOK RIGHT NOW."

[annathepiper]

Ah yes, I really need to get that one. :)

[feuervogel]

It's definitely worth it :) I'd been trying to get a copy since NASFIC, but they kept selling out. I was finally able to get it at Dragon*Con.

Doesn't surprise me, it's gotten a lot of awesome buzz. I'll need to check around at my local bookstores; I'm sure somebody will have it!

I probably do, but the reality is that unless you're reviewing parenting or econ books, I won't have a chance to read any of the actual books. Reading reviews makes me feel human sometimes, like I would read a book for fun if I had the chance.

Note that I've already created a syndicated feed of the other blog which people could use if they want to read the entries from within LJ. Just wanted to check with akiko before I link it here.. I assume that'd be ok?

[feuervogel]

My blog posts are linked in my twitter feed. As long as the connection stays behind lock, I don't much care.

Right, so, lets' see if this syntax works: ob_exaggerate

Seems to, I've added it to my flist.
