I also loved writing reviews, but it got old after two years 😀 but I’m starting to like writing them again 🙂

Hey! I’m sorry for the late reply, I hope you’ll get it. I didn’t find a way to subscribe to your blog so far. I know how you feel! I also used to feel lonely from time to time, with most readers reading something I don’t. It’s better now. I’ve discovered a few bloggers with similar reading tastes and now it’s much more fun.
As for the reviews – oh I can never shut up about a book after I finished it, regardless of whether I liked it or not, so reviews alone are easy for me. The tricky thing is to make them more interesting for other people, especially those who haven’t read the book yet.

I feel happiness for everybody who has yet to read this book!

I love writing reviews! That was the primary reason I started blogging at all. I have to say what I thought about the book. Well, you know it 🙂 I told you about it when you were preparing the blog post where I was mentioned.
I decided not to set any goals at all. I really love full-blown, stress-inducing challenges, but it’s usually about sport. I don’t like it any easier and so there’s no point for me in a reading challenge at all.

Hi Jennilyn! Sorry for the late reply! So did you join the challenge eventually? 🙂 I decided I definitely won’t, but I will be logging in my books there so that I can keep track of them. I think, maybe people find it easier to participate in a post that’s not a review. When it’s a review many will think that if they haven’t read the book yet, they don’t really have anything to say about it. As for hype monsters (great term) no idea. I hope I won’t ruin beautiful books 🙂

Well, I will be definitely logging in my books on Goodreads, because it’s impossible to keep track of all of them via the blog only. I get lost even when I try to see which ones I read during one month.

Discussion posts are way more interactive than review posts. It’s a grim fact for peeps like me who enjoy writing reviews. I wouldn’t totally ditch doing it. I don’t know, I guess I’ll try harder to make my reviews more appealing?

Ah, the hype monsters that we create by uber praising books that we like. How to deal with this? Pray, tell me.
