"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us." Franz Kafka
For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
Is there a book you absolutely love, but for some reason, people never think it sounds interesting, or maybe they read it and don’t like it at all?
I think there are lots of books, which I love and others have not liked it. That does not really matter to me. Reading is very personal. Our tastes differ. One person's poison is other person's nectar. I love poetry but many don't. For what so ever reason. We should respect each other and go on reading what we like.

Don't you hate it when you don't get any books in a week? It drives me crazy!
Here is my weekly update
Maybe your mailbox will bring a wonderful book or two this week. Enjoy your poetry and I hope the mystery is an excellent one. My Monday: http://www.rundpinne.com/2011/01/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-23.html
Some weeks are just slow reading weeks.
I consider two books a week a good week for me. Luckily I had two snow days and read a lot more this week. Hope you have a better reading week this week!
I hope your reading improves and that we see more of your reviews!
Checking in from Monday Musings, and I agree with your thoughts. It's nice we have so many genres to choose from. That way everyone is pleased.
Checking in from Musing Mondays...
I do agree with you there... read what you love - life is too short to worry about what others think, Gautami ;)

I find people who read poetry amazing :-) ... coz I can't ever figure it out myself
My reading has been slower since the holidays, but at least I'm reading and so are you! :) Have a great week.
Hope you have a good reading week. I can't believe January is nearly over!
I didn't read much either, Gautami! Maybe next week we'll have a better reading week! :-)
I'm sure you'll get lots of books this week!
Hope you'll find a great book in local bookstore soon. Have a great week. :)
I agree that taste in books is very personal...but does that stop us from recommending the books that we love?
I agree about the books we choose, and how it's very personal.

I hope you find some great books that get you reading this week!
I agree, what one enjoys another will not. It is all about preference. Check out my answer for Monday's Musing.
Sometimes it is nice to have a slower week. :) The tbr pile doesn't grow as quickly. Happy reading this week! Here's my Mailbox! ~ Wendi
I have not been requesting as many books but when the mailbox is empty it makes me sad. Hope you get some goodies this week!
