Ep 25: What do we read next?

from Bookasur · host P.S. Nissim

What does one learn from years of reviewing books? And what does one make of a book that defies easy reviewing? Easy, this reviewer picks up the book and goes deeper into it, and then talks of what distinguishes a book reader from a reviewer - along with some rants about the never-ending pressure to keep up. This is episode #25 of Bookasur, talking about frogs in wells, Strange Horizons (and walls), publicity, and some free advice on choosing your next book to read. This is also the finale of Season 1 of Bookasur, so we will take a break after this episode, and return renewed and fresh when life brings us back here.
