Reflection

I’ve followed different kinds of blogs for several years now and have been inspired (one too many times) to do something a blogger has shared, like read a new book or redecorate my kitchen. I love the concept of being able to share and interact with others through a blog, but I never really thought of myself as a blogger. 

Online Book Communities

Online book communities have become a lifesaver to many book lovers. They can be great organizational tools that allow you to keep a record of what you’ve read, liked, disliked, and plan to read. They provide users a way to share their love for books by rating and reviewing books they’ve read.  They can also serve as research tools when trying to decide which book to read next.  You can simply read what others have thought of that book and make a decision, but beware of spoilers. Many book communities also allow users to join book clubs, give book recommendations, and follow other avid book readers. If you haven't joined a book community yet here are several suggestions and my opinion about them.
