I have been reading some here, yes. Stephen Send a noteboard - 13/10/2009 09:48:05 PM
Do you read them? If no, why not?

Do you comment on them? If no, why not?

Sometimes I comment, depending on what I think of the book.
Have you written a review for the site? If no, why not?

I am yet to write a review, as many of the books I read get reviewed before I finish them and i feel it redundant to parrot previous reviews. I f I read a book and noticeably disagree with the review here, I might write one.
I love reviews. They're always interesting, they're good for helping me decide what I do or don't want to read, and they introduce me to new authors. So I find it strange that people here don't seem to care that much about them, despite the fine effort put in by many people here.

Is there anything we could do that would make you get more involved?
