My First Post

Writing a blog can be a daunting experience but it can be an exciting way of bringing people together. Here I want readers in Armidale to discover the joys of reading and the share their experiences.

Here I will post some of my favorite books and what it was about them that made me want to read them. Sometimes I will talk about what I didn't like to read as well. Not everything written is to everyone's taste and that's ok!

There are many sites on the web which can help you choose book to read. Somtimes its good to start with what you know, an author you like and see who else writes like them. This means that you can stay in your comfort zone but still have a bit of an adventure.

Just type "Who writes like?' in your search engine and see what appears.

here's one I found hosted bya library in Victoria:

Try and see how it works for you!
