BTT: Preludes
January 14, 2010
Do you read the inside flaps that describe a book before or while reading it?
I do and I do often. I have a book blog (occasionally, these days) and thus I love reviews. I love summaries, opinions, thoughts and ideas. I won’t read customer reviews on Barnes and Nobel or Amazon until I’m done because I often find that they contain too much of the meat of the story. Blurbs and jackets and professional or blogger reviews, however, give just enough of a taste to keep a book lover wanting more.

I do too, but I sure do hate when they give too much away. On the other hand, sometimes I would have to be rereading the beginning five times if I didn’t have the flap that told me what was going on! :–)
