Why I started this blog?

Funny enough it all started innocentlywith me stumbling across a YouTube video of a young woman named Meaghan the book addict – (she has since closed her channel). She was doing a bookshelf tour, a what? I’d never heard of such a thing before. So I clicked on it, then another and another you get the idea. Suddenly my head was swimming, it was like finding lost relatives you never knew you had. Right before my eyes. I had discovered this new world and it was filled with people like me, readers.

Who thought it was normal to own more than fifty books, having pristine covers and books didn’t mean you were O.C.D , and this was the clincher it was normal to covet, even appreciated, beautiful book covers.

I was home at last, and no longer did I feel like a freak. From that first video a desire to interact with my peers grew. Until I pulled my socks up and garnered some courage and created this blog, a YouTube channel, a facebook all in a week. I know I know that’s a lot but I do tend to go overboard a tad when I’m passionate about something. To think this all started from that one video blows my mind. So follow me as I navigate through this new world of video and blogging.

About This Blog

I started Sony The Book Lover in the winter of 2010. As way to arrange my thoughts and keep track of the books I’ve read, and see how my taste have changed in the passing of time. I was very weary of starting a review blog-what if I didn’t like the books would that be okay to say? Those were my concerns but I need not have worried the book community is very inclusive and welcoming hardly a drop of negativity. In the past two years I worked hard to maintain this blog. Taking part in many Blog Tours, featuring guest post by authors. As well as trying new ideas like Fiction Mondays, Graphic Weekends, Author Spotlight. As my way of keeping the content fresh and informative.

Sony the Book Lover is still evolving I try to include all genres and often venture out of reading comfort zone, but my goal no my hope is to become a hub for book related content. From giveaways, hosted contest, news to reviews. For Middle Grade| Young Adult | New Adult | Adult Fiction as well.
