First post, reviews to come

Howdy all,

This is the first post on my new book review blog.  I plan on reviewing everything I read in hopes it will:

     Inspire someone to read something they would not normally read.  Reading reviews has certainly opened my eyes to many different authors and genres.

     Reaffirm what someone has already heard about a particular book.  Again, I have used reviews to affirm other reviews I've read.  Taking the first review you read for gospel is like listening to just one movie critic.

     In some cases, and I really hate to say this, I may come across a book I feel just robbed me of whatever time I gave to reading it.  I won't name names but I came across some grey shaded book that, well, let's just say it wasn't literary in the least but it did do its job.

Please do not get offended if I go off on a rant once and a while.  (I tend to do it less often as I get older, but people tell me it does still happen)  The first book I will be reviewing is The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson.  Look for it some time this weekend.

Thanks for listening and hope you find this helpful.  If you have any suggesting please comment on any post on this blog.  I will respond.
