Weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee & Alison What drove you to start blogging in the first place?
During the years, I have found out that we readers are weird specimens on a sometimes nearly extinct species. I can probably count with one hand the number of people I know which enjoy a good book or who find discussing a book great conversational material.
So, this my 6 why's to explain my blogging:
1.I had read many thought provoking books and all those thoughts needed a home.
2.I don't find many readers in the vicinity. I find that sense of reading community here while discussing books and exchanging ideas via comments.
3.I wanted to learn about something new that I could combine with my reading habits.
4.Writing is my second love since I can remember as it was my mother's.
5.Book blogging is a great community that I have been part for a year. This month is my Blog's Birthday!
6.To share my reading experience with all of you is incredibly gratifying.
