Reviewing

It takes me three hours
to write two reviews
Some days, as I sit down to review the wonderful books I've read, I feel pushed to perform.
Like a monkey, Jump here, Do that, Write this, Feel this.

And some days, like today, I am afraid that you will think that this is what I want you to do when you read my reviews.
That I want you to love this book as much as I did.
Or that I want you to hate it, too.

I do not. I want to simply express my own, personal reactions to it, and I want to tell you about them.

What you think of the same book is completely your business.

And some days, reviewing seems like so much work.

Do you know that it takes me almost three hours to write two reviews?

How about you? Tell me, how long does it take you to write a review? And are people bugging you when you do?
