Blacklin’s Reading Room Reviews & More

  • Dedication

    A Book I have - a friend gave
    Whose Pencil
    here and there
    Had notched the place
    that pleased Him
    At Rest - His fingers are

    Now - when I read
    I read not
    For interrupting Tears
    Obliterate the Etchings
    Too Costly for Repairs.

    --Emily Dickinson

Embrace Your Inner Reading Dork

Posted by blacklin on October 1, 2008

For those of you who cannot have enough book and reading clubs to belong to or book forums to post to here is yet another: LitMinds: A community of readers, authors, and indie bookstores. According to their introduction to LitMinds:

LitMinds is a community of people who are enthusiastic about reading, sharing their book endeavors with others, connecting with authors and independent booksellers, and participating in literary events and activities. Through our website, blog, and community-based events and activities, LitMinds is constantly discovering new ways to celebrate reading and enrich the reading experience. –From the vision statement at LitMinds.

I checked out the forum boards which are categorized by fiction, non-fiction, short reads, etc.  Unfortunately, the boards don’t seem to be too active.  However, it also seems that this site is fairly new–the copyright date is 2007 so maybe it’s just a matter of getting the word out.

Now, I’m going to go read!

  1. I find that’s my problem: finding time to read in between all the blogs and online forums! Thanks for the resource, though!
