[stylist] Thinking about a book-lovers listserve

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Let's not forget that Slate & Style now publishes at least one book
review each issue. I'm always seeking well-written book reviews for S &
S that take a deeper look than just a summary along with including where
it can be found in accessible formats. If anyone is interested in
submitting a book review, check out the submission guidelines, or
contact me at bpollpeter at hotmail.com.

Nonetheless, an ongoing listserve, or similar format, would be a good
idea.

Sincerely,
Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter, editor, Slate & Style

Vejas,

Yes, yes! I second that. I am glad Bridgit mentioned it to Robert. We
need 
to read to be good and better writers.
I like getting book recommendations. I would also like reading book
reviews 
too. And since its for blind people we could add where to get the book; 
where it is accessible.
NLS only produces 2000 books among the thousands published yearly, but 
fortunately we have more options now like mainstream sources such as
audible 
and Amazon and more blindness sources like bookshare.
Getting book recommendations would motivate me to read more and also I
would 
know where to find them; wouldn' have to check sources A B C to find it
in 
alternative format.
