I have been a “bookworm” for about the last two years. That means that I have been constantly seeking new, good books not just reading occasionaly. For the past 5 or so months I have been a “reviewer”. In these past few months I have noticed a change in my reading habits.

I can’t just read a book for PURE FUN. I’ll unintentionally begin evaluting a book. Every sentence of every page can’t just be enjoyed. It will digest and sit in my head all day and I’ll start noticing little blemishes or faults. The great amazing parts begin to numb a little with every crack in the books facade. Books that I absolutely loved and bought a few months ago, no longer seem completely over the top amazing. I begin to pick out little things (like dialogue clarification, plot speed, realistic/relatible characters, etc) that I never noticed before.

Is this a pro or con to book reviewing? I hope its a pro, but I have yet to make a final decision.
