Think Aloud explores book-related discussions encompassing reading, writing, blogging, and perhaps newsworthy content. The focus is to push the boundaries, stretch the mind, and encourage dialogue within this community. Let’s all think out loud.
Table Topic: Hype, Negativity, and
Reading Books I Know I’ll Dislike
Abstract:
There’s a moral responsibility to contribute to the reading community regardless of being the black sheep or not.
This Week’s Theme: Character Archetypes and
Their Associated Fragrances
Initial Thoughts:
Just over a year ago, I wrote this discussion: Not All Fictional Men Smell Like The Great Outdoors, and so I thought I’d expand on that in today’s free-reign Top Ten Tuesday to give you a list of ten archetypes I come across frequently, their typical “scents”, and the reality of what they probably should smell like instead.
And yes, this is an incredibly random topic curated during ungodly hours of the night.
For reference: “fragrance notes” are key indicators of any perfume/cologne based on their ingredients or what it’s intended to smell like.
This Week’s Theme: Summer Beach Reads
(Or Just Summer 16′ TBR)
Initial Thoughts:
I’m no good in stiflingly hot weather. I melt. So it’s not that I wouldn’t go to the beach at all…it’s that I wouldn’t go to the beach to read. Plus sand makes me all kinds of dry in all kinds of places. You’re welcome.
But with Canadian Summer beginning on June 20, these are probably the books I’ll be reading during that time; by which I also mean I’ll probably only get to reading at least one of them.
