From my point of view the new format is OK except one thing. I would appreciate to have a link to a sypnopsis/blurb as I prefer a click instead of copy and paste.
You get a lot more cool books than I do.
ReplyDelete@ediFanoB - The problem is finding a balance between putting the information together and the amount of time spent on the post. I only have an hour or so a day to spend on blogging related stuff and I feel like mentioning the books isn't the best use of that time. At the same time, I can't read all the books I receive and I owe publishers at least something for sending me a free copy.
ReplyDelete@Aidan - Nyah Nyah Nyah. Just kidding ;-)
@Patrick,
ReplyDeleteI understand you very well. But to have a link instead of copy and paste is just a lazy habit.
In the end your post fulfill its purpose.
I buy most of my books on my own and I can admit you that is impossible for me to read all the books in the same month when I bought them. My TBR pile is constantly growing.
