Sunday Book Review

It's Sunday and time for another book review/recommendation post. I apologize to the east coaster who have to wait for this West Coaster to post. So it goes.

What are you reading right now? What do you want to read? What are some books that were recommended to you that you probably wouldn't have read otherwise?

Sunday Book Review

Its Sunday again, so that means its time to talk about books. First some housekeeping. Unless some folks want to jump on board and host the book reviews, I plan to move to an every other week schedule. To give us some time to read books.

I've been sick with a nasty head cold. My head felt like an ever-expanding balloon. Not fun. What are your favorite books to read when you are recovering from an illness? Do you read something light--mind candy--or something deep an introspective in those conditions?

Tonight while watching the Olympics why not...

scribble down a book review for Sunday morning?

Tell us why to read a book--or not.
Tell us your best book memories. Why did that book change your life?
Give us a list of everyone-should-reads.
And I was thinking two things:
1) How about book-to-movies, books made into movies? Which books are good? Which movies are good? Which ones have nothing to do with each other?
2) The Vinge Reviews: when do y'all want to do this together?

Everything else, old or new, long or short, welcome.
See you tomorrow.

Sunday Morning Book Review: Sense and Sensibility

Welcome to the Sunday Morning Book Review, Jane Austen style. I apologise-it has been a long time since I have written a book review, but I will try to do this book justice. First though, I would like to give a little overall introduction to the world of Jane Austen for everyone, especially those who are wary of it or haven't picked it up b/c they think it might be boring, b/c I admit, I thought it was silly romance stories at first too. (And no, I haven't watched the movie.)

Book Reviews tomorrow

For those who have something to say about good books, recommendations both short and long very welcome. See you in the morning.

Sunday Morning Book Reviews

It’s Sunday…time for reading and discussing books and book reviews.

We’d like to hear from you about books:
new books, old books, books that you’ve thought about for years, books you read this week.

Please write a review.

Help Save the Book Review.

Tomorrow: Sunday Morning Book Reviews

It's once again almost Sunday morning, and almost time for our book reviews.

This week we are particularly interested in political books: books about politics, books about politicians, novels that depict our political situation, etc.

Or anything else you're reading.

And, summer special, any beach reading.

Keep us in mind, cast an eye across your bookshelf, and see you in the morning.

What's That You're Reading?

Since 2001, when Salon controversially covered The Incredible Vanishing Book Review--for which it had to provide room to correct its too dire assessment at that time--the decreasing space devoted to book reviews has been documented at newspapers all over the country.
