WEEKLY GEEKS: linked reviews (week #2)

The theme this week is from darla from Books and Other Thoughts . She links other reviews into her book reviews, which can be a great idea. I've done that when I've given a review to a book I didn't like, but I know other readers who liked it. I linked their review to give another point of view.

I'm not sure how committed I'll be to this, but if you want your review linked up with mine, just drop a note with the link in the comments. I've seen other bloggers who add the link to other reviews into their comments, which is another option to this. Since many people are opening up to this idea, I can see doing it the other way: if I read your review of a book I've read, I would go back and link it into my post after the fact. I'll just leave a comment to let you know. This is what guatami tripathy did for me today with our Yellowknife reviews,and I liked that.

  1. The only review we seem to have in common is:
    http://blog.mawbooks.com/2008/04/29/zel-by-donna-jo-napoli/

    I hope you know that I've already linked up to many of your book reviews here:

    Every once in a while I'll quote another reviewer as well, or give kudos when I read a book based upon a bloggers recommendation.
