Welcome to Bookanalia!

An online friend suggested that we become friends on the Goodreads website. I checked it out and started to browse through listings of thousands of books, rating them and adding them to my online bookshelves. What a walk down Memory Lane as I came across books that I'd read as a teenager and as a child! I pondered over so many...Is this just an "I liked it"? Or is it an "I really liked it"? After the first five hundred or so, it occurred to me that, if I was going to have a blog that I would update regularly, it would have to be one about books. And, just like that, the name Bookanalia came to mind.

A play on the word bacchanalia, Bookanalia is for those extreme book lovers - the ones who start a book at 8:00 p.m. and read until the wee hours of the morning because they just couldn't put it down. But it's also for those who fall asleep after a few paragraphs before bed. If you like reading, like to discover new authors, like to stretch into unexplored territory with a new genre or even like to settle back with a much-read favorite for another time through, then Bookanalia is for you!
