Once upon a time, there was young woman who thought she would start a huge, fancy, fabulous website dedicated to her most beloved extracurricular activity: reading and writing. Thus, ReaderReport was started. Books were read and reviewed; people reacted positively. Even authors who appreciated the nice things she said about their books contacted her for permission to quote her on their own websites. All was happy and well in the land of ReaderReport.
One day, the young woman's life got in the way. She shut down the website, stopped reading books, and stopped writing.
When she least expected it, a handsome prince rode into her life on his trusty steed. They spent a year getting to know one another. When he discovered she had once had a book review website, he encouraged her to start it up again. He was unaware that the young woman's mother had also been encouraging her to do the same.
One Saturday, while the prince was out slaying a nasty beast of the land, the young woman headed to the library just down the street from her humble cottage. She checked out a book called Lady in Waiting by Susan Meissner. She adored the book so much she couldn't resist telling her friends and family all about it. It was then that she realized she needed to tell all the inhabitants of the kingdom about the book, as well as any subsequent books she might read.
So, opting for simplicity, the young woman started a simple blog to share the good news of all the remarkable (and a few not so remarkable) tomes that floated about the land.
And she lived happily ever after.
