plans sur la comète

[salinea]

I'm thinking about making a reading & reviewing journal. A place where I could talk about all the books I read, whether I've liked them or not.

Alternatively I'm thinking about making it a community, somewhere where all like-minded people could review books they've read.

Would anybody be interested by something like that ?

Book club cosy sounds fun - but any community building can be a bit awkward, sometimes it´s the non book or out of topic bits which give a sense of self. I am interested of course, if you are going to talk about books I will stalk around ;) it´s just that a blog is really liberating in a way that it´s yours and you can talk about whatever you feel like no need to worry if it is too obscure or too low brow. Talking about books to others can often lead to well pompousness and some posturing ( I think you know the way to a couple places where I could point you some really good examples). Plus with people with real different tastes, the no feedback because nobody reads anything in common with you or everybody seeming to love stuff you think is utter dreck can be offputting. Not to say it is not a good idea, the book club aspect, the opportunity to get to meet better book tastes of others, and such.... Just an feeling like the grouchy old men in the Muppets ( ahah, just got my hands on a copy of the Muppets Christmas special!)
