Introducing No BS Book Reviews
I’ll be honest; I had no idea how to start this post. Not a
clue. And really, that’s an accurate way to describe this whole blogging
endeavor. It took me a month to come up with the name and it isn’t like No BS
Book Reviews is any sort of masterpiece. Nothing wrong with it either. I like
it. Describes what I want to do with the blog, it’s honest and distinctly
non-poetic. Robert Frost wouldn’t ever be so forthright, would he? Regardless,
I do have a plan now and you deserve to know what you get for staying around.
My goal
here is simple. First off, I want to provide reviews that aren’t BS. Too many
times I’ve seen people skip over the problems a book has or ignore the book
altogether and just say “I liked it.” Well, guess what? That information helps
no one. I want to supply people with reviews that actually say something,
without falling off the deep end and becoming bone dry. Whether I succeed or
not is for you to decide, of course.
Second,
I simply enjoy writing and reading. Doing these reviews gives me a chance to
combine two hobbies while creating something useful. For me it was only
natural. Helps that I’ve been known to be slightly opinionated.
I’m
hoping to release reviews every other Thursday with the possibility that
sometimes I may release one on the Thursday of an off week. Ultimately, I have
to figure out how often I can reliably write these. It goes without saying that
I hope to release more often than less.
At some
point, I am considering producing other book-related content, besides reviews.
What that will be, or when it will be, I haven’t a clue. Maybe something that
is slightly more interactive? Guess that just means you’ll have to stick
around! (Please? Pretty please?)
Hopefully
you know what’s up now. If not, oops.
Hope to be "seeing" you again!
