First

The title makes it pretty clear what this blog is for.
Specifically, I'm doing this both to provide a short of review of recently finished books and to help me to keep track of what I've read and what I liked about it. I'm going to give a short blurb about the book and try to hit the below categories in some form.

• Why did I read it?
  
• Would I recommend it to someone? AND what type of person I would recommend it to?
• Would I read it again (AKA, is it staying on my bookshelf or is it going on paperbackswap)? AND why?
• What did I like or hate (without giving away what the book is about)?

Just to make it clear. I read mostly sci-fi and fantasy with a smattering of other things. If that's not up your alley... sorry!
