Another book blog
January 20, 2003 (2:52 PM) ( link )

After my last post I decided to take a few minutes' break from studying for my civil procedure final to see if I could find book reviewers online who have (1) read a lot of books I haven't read, (2) share my tastes. And I was fortunate enough to find what looks like a fantastic book log, Outside of a Dog.

What made me like this site were a couple of reviews: she disliked Ender's Shadow and American Gods, but liked Bridge of Birds and A Night in the Lonesome October. (Her post for Ender's Shadow also suggests that she's a fellow law student--unless, of course, she just enjoys reading Wills, Trusts, and Estates textbooks on the side. UPDATE: Actually, it looks like she's a practicing lawyer.)

So anyway, I'm likely to follow up on a couple of her suggestions: some Ellis Peters mysteries, perhaps, and even another stab at Lois McMaster Bujold.

(Just a random thought: Since "web log" becomes "blog," shouldn't "book log" become "klog"?)
