Intro

Hi there!

I'm Chaos, and I'm joining the untold number of people who blog.

As most of my day revolves around STORIES, that's the subject of this blog.

Now, why would anyone who somehow stumbled across this, probably from clicking on the wrong link, continue reading?

No reason, honestly.

I'm starting this blog to talk about books I'm reading. I'd post about books I have read in the past... but I'd spend all my time blogging and have no time to read new books. Sad. So that's not happening. If I REALLY want to talk about a book I loved, I'll reread it and post it then.

Now, about me: I'm twenty five, happily married, and a college graduate. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in English. Which doesn't seem to mean bupkiss on the job market, but it does mean I can critically read and analyze pretty much any printed material. So if you DO read this, you're guaranteed to get more than "I like this" or "This stinks". I'll at least tell you WHY.

Granted, it's still all just my own opinion.

I'll focus primarily on whatever book I'm reading, because this is a blog about reading. I mostly read fantasy with a smattering of science fiction and mystery. If I see a movie or play a video game with an especially deep or interesting plot, I might include that for some variety.

I'm an aspiring writer myself, so I'm critiquing and commenting from that point of view. I'll keep the comments about my stories to a bare, bare minimum if I can't eliminate them completely, because no one besides me and my circle of friends have read them.

Well, that's about it. If you're still reading, thank you. And enjoy!
