I've had some new referrals to this site recently and all are good for reading enthusiasts. Thanks to those listed below who have links to this site.
The Bookshelves Under Pressure blog is written by 30 something Paul who now works in the publishing industry. Previously, he's been a librarian, a bookseller and a book buyer, so I guess he knows his books. The blog is relatively new and it's one I'm going to keep an eye on.
The Dewey's Dartboard blog has nothing to do with darts really; but it has lots about books. I suspect that Dewey is based in the US, although that name is not far off a certain Welsh name that I'm far more familiar with and he’s also a librarian...
The Book Case is "Portsmouth Library Service's unofficial website for readers, guiding you through the overwhelming choice of what to read next and inviting you to share your reading experiences through reviews and recommendations". This really is an exciting site. I'm proud to say that on the "news" page, this site is delivered by RSS feed into the "Crime and Mystery" section, along with the splendid Eurocrime. My thanks to Portsmouth Library Service.
Having recently booked my tickets for the Hay Festival this year, I'm continuing to dip into this blog: Life in Hay, which is as it says on the label. This really is life in Hay on Wye and for a whole year and not just the festival's 10 days. If you've only visited for the festival, this is a reminder that Hay is not just a festival location and a little town of books, it's also in the middle of some beautiful farming countryside, with all that entails. Lesley Arrowsmith, the blog's author really does get the true flavour of Hay on record in this blog. I love it!
Now, more from radio and don't miss it...
