When I started writing these, they served two purposes: the first was to help me remember what I was reading, and the second was to get me back into writing, particularly in a form I felt a little uncomfortable with. They have done both of those jobs in marvellous style.
I'm hopeful that, if you read this collection from start to finish (which I'm not going to do) there is at least some evidence of progression, whether that's in my writing style or in the way I think about what I read. Recently, however, putting reviews together has felt more and more like a job, which is something I never wanted it to become. I think it's because I'm busier in general, but also because I've taken on other projects (including This Week I Wrote on Wattpad, which you should totally read!) and the need to force myself into a creative space isn't there any more.
Had this exit been considered, I would have tried to do something dramatic for an outro- reviewed War and Peace, or something- but as it stands, I have to leave it with this inane explanation. Like every creative person ever, I've hit a point where I have less time and less motivation for this particular aspect of what I do, and so I've decided not to leave it hanging in mid-air.
Thank you for coming on this journey with me!

Book Reviews
Non-FictionCarried over from my Tumblr, this is a personal project tracking what I read through time, largely because of my awful memory. These aren't long reviews, but the books are varied, and the opinions are honest, so I hope you enjoy.
