Finished

So, not like I'm saying anything new here, but I'm finished here. I'm still reading numerous books but the problem lies in their quality. I rarely, if ever, decide to pick up a book that seems like it will be bad. I can appreciate books for numerous different reasons and it's rare that a book I've decided on reading will be worse than average. And there is no enjoyment in constantly churning out reviews on 4/5 or 5/5 books. All that is is finding new and varying ways to say "yes, this was a good book." Conversely, there's no enjoyment on my part in reading books I know will be bad or finishing books that have become stale. Yes, I get to write about how it was bad and maybe stop some others from reading it, but the process leading up to that contains no enjoyment.

So it isn't as though this is some ultimately surprising confession, this blog has been a year dead, I just couldn't figure out why. Now I have. Will this blog return to reviewing books in the future? Maybe. It could also return as something else. Until than, thanks for the views, and hopefully I'll reincarnate into something else in the future.

Finished for now.
