Why Do I Want to Write About Books?

There are probably alot of book critics out there that are more valid than I am. They have been doing it for years and know exactly what to write and how to write it. They have the experience, the knowledge, and the wonderful populace of the reading community that depend on them, where as I have a few friends that usually enjoy the books that I recommend for them.
This blog is for myself and anyone else who wants to spend their time reading it. I want to convey the joy I get from reading into a written format. The first way I could think of doing this was to write a blog about a book after I had read it. This is not only so that later on I can remember which books I enjoyed and which ones that I did not, but it will put my words out into the abyss that is known as the internet. It will hopefully make me feel as though, my opinion of a book has been taken into account when someone walks into a book store and is trying to decide what to read or what not to read...
