In my reading and reviews, I am moving away from the old tried and true and getting into new genres and newer books.

I don’t write a review about every single book I read. If I receive it with the request to review it (such as LibraryThing) then I do make the effort to read the book within a reasonable time and get an honest and fair review published. If I get a book that I am unable to finish reading I will do two things: I will post a review if I have read any of it at all and give an honest review; I will attempt to get the book to someone else more likely to complete the book and review it.

I post all reviews on my blog here, and then on LibraryThing and Barnes & Noble for reviewer copy books.

Genres I will read:

• Science fiction
• Fantasy
• Mysteries
• Christian non-fiction
• Christian fiction
• Classics
• Memoirs, Biography, Autobiography
• Short story collections
• Young Adult

Genres I won’t read or review

• Poetry
• Art
• Cookbooks
• Children’s books

Genres I’m careful about

• Chick-lit
• Romance
• Thrillers

I am a book collector so I tend to keep the books I get. I will NOT sell any of them, but if something seems a good fit for someone I may pass a book on to a friend.
