Book Bloggers: Reading and Writing All About It

Some of us started blogging just to talk about the books we read. Others of us like to talk about the books we read, but don't really want to build our blogs around them. Most of us probably expected we'd be mostly talking to ourselves - but we don't, or at least not for very long. We find each other all the time, and great conversations result.

Some of the things book bloggers like to talk about:

• Writing effective, informative, and enjoyable reviews
• The pros and cons of getting review books, including publisher/author relationships and disclosure requirements
• Issues in publishing, like e-books and cover controversies
• Genres, subgenres, and crossovers
• Reading challenges
• Favorite books and authors (duh)
• The book-blogging community!

This session would welcome those with dedicated book blogs, those who sometimes post about books, and those who like to read books and would like to make them a bigger part of their blogs.
