I axed the other blog and made a brand new one, so this book blog was born. But it wasn’t an easy decision. Countless of times I asked myself ‘can—

Bookish Verbosity: Is book blogging hard?
Would you describe your experience as a book blogger difficult? Bookish Verbosity is a non-regular feature at AEROPAPERS where I talk about topics that are related to books, blogging, and the book community.

Book blogging trends that I haven’t done—yet?
I’m not the trendiest apple in the basket. I don’t easily succumb to trend, no matter how ‘cool’ it is, if I don’t feel it, I don’t follow it. I’m also the type of customer even if you give me your most impressive sales talk, you will not make me buy the product on the spot—if I don’t need it (but I do find TV shopping ads entertaining). I’m quite stubborn that way, if that thing doesn’t float my boat,—
