Great Reading About Reading Here on Dreamwidth

[jesse_the_k]

Someday I may again add to the cornucopia of excellent reading reports available here on Dreamwidth. In a previous life, enjoying these posts would also add to my teetering TBR pile. Now I get vicarious thrills from how folks’ reading made them feel. In particular:

How could I have forgotten

...the mother of all book reviewers, oursin, who I started reading 18 years ago!

On DW: oursin yes. skygiants, whose booklogging tag gets some but not all of the books. James Nicole, otherwise known as james_davis_nicoll... mrissa does a half-monthly roundup, troisoiseaux does individual reviews plus some Wednesday roundups, plus they review plays, sabotabby does some booklogging (but they write about lots of other things too), swan_tower (Marie Brennan) does occasional roundups... Oh, yeah, Sonia, but you know about her.

Thanks for the muchness!

ETA too late: James Nicoll, of course.

I always look forward to rachelmanija's book posts.

I was just coming back to edit her in, but now there's no need. Or, seconded!

[jesse_the_k]

And how could I forget your wonderful reviews, which convinced me to succeed at nonfiction when fiction overwhelmed me!

tamaranth seems to be strictly a book blogger and I have gotten several intriguing pointers from them.

Ooooo!

They have 1847 book reviews. Delicious.
