I read a lot. If you're here, you probably read a lot, too. I also attempt to write book reviews, but I'm finding it an art that I haven't yet mastered. Being a book lover (or a librarian) doesn't make me good at everything book-related. Because I'm an academic librarian, I don't get to promote a lot of fun reads or do much reader's advisory and I'm often jealous of my public library colleagues and their skills. However, I've been reading a lot of great blogs that talk about books and thought it would be fun to share some of them.

At the Library Girl, Tanya writes interesting reviews of all kinds of books, both popular and academic. This post prompted my latest book purchase, which will soon crown the teetering pile of "to reads" on my desk.

I don't think I've pimped Light Reading here before, but I should have. Jenny writes more than reviews, including background and criticm and is an author herself. Her topics aren't light, but I'm always taken in by them and some of the titles she's covered have found their way onto my to-read list.

The Little Professor always has something thought-provoking to say, mostly about Victorian literature. Her entries have deepened my appreciation for the genre, which I haven't read deeply. Who else would offer an entry of links on Robinson Crusoe?
