But I have recently discovered that I have a rather small selection of authors that I choose from. So now, I focus more on the cover. It's so fun to go and browse through a bookstore and pick up a book just because you like what's on the front. I have also been more into reading reviews. It's great to hear what other people think of the book. I've heard of so many more titles that I didn't even know were around. The literary world is great, and I'm loving exploring it.Kimmel Tippetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190060945667532913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5718129461743394480.post-72320276843331462442011-05-12T03:15:01.225-04:002011-05-12T03:15:01.225-04:00Hey there!

Lately I read a lot of dystopian; it all started with The Hunger Games, blame Katniss for making me fall in love with the genre :)<br />For new books, I tend to be attracted by cover and blurb. If the cover looks interesting I will pick it up and read the blurb; and if the blurb tempting, I will check reviews and rating on goodreads. If all good, I'll buy the book. But when will I read it, it all depend on my mood; I've bought The Knife of Never Letting Go for months before I finally read it. Not because I think it wasn't interesting, but mostly because I had different interest at that time so I picked different kind of books.Lynossa (Deranged Book Lovers)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10373159476123916712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5718129461743394480.post-71297873236073665102011-05-12T00:52:45.254-04:002011-05-12T00:52:45.254-04:00What attracts me to a book?

If it doesn't appeal to me, I'll most likely not pick it up. Next is the author. If I've read the author before and liked it, I'll most likely read from that same author. Last is the content. (That's not too wrong of me is it?) Most websites that usually help me find the next book are all the current blogs that I'm following. <br /><br />Hope that helps and happy reading:)Feliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16014211491573601722noreply@blogger.com
