Discussion Post ~ Your thoughts on my new review style

Good morning everyone!

I'm still pretty new to book blogging and I've been doing a lot of surfing through other book blogger's blogs looking at the ways that they compose their reviews.  So far I have learned that EVERYBODY does it differently.  I decided that I wanted to do something different with my review style as well.  I think I've come up with a review style and format that is hopefully informative as well as written in a manner that will help prevent unintentional spoilers (hopefully.)

New Style Example

So I'm looking for you input on my new style. As you can see with my new style I've also moved the placement of my rating in hopes that readers will read through to the end of the post.  I've seen in some recent discussion posts that some people confessed to reading only as far as the rating, which is going to be a discussion post of its own.  Do you like that I put why I read the book, what I liked, didn't like and my overall impression of the book?  Do you like the new placement of the rating? Is there anything that you would like to see added to my reviews?  Anything you think should come out?

  1. I think this is my first time here, so I have to admit that I'm not familiar with your previous review style, but I DO like the new one! I think it's very appealing to those of us who want to see how you organize your thoughts around a particular book!
