The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Jennifer at Crazy-for-Books!
This Weeks Question:
When you are writing a review, do you write it while you are reading or wait until you have read the entire book?
My Answer:
It's a little of both really. While I'm reading I think of things I definitely want to include and I even write them down in this 'idea book' I have, but when I'm really writing a review I don't feel like it's fair to actually sit down and write it with out having read the book all the way through. The things I write down ahead of time are things like, "I love that it's funny! Lend = awesome!" <--- exact quote taken during reading Paranormalcy, and another one was, "Music and voice are amazing!" <--- while reading The Mockingbirds.
So now you know how strange my notes are, but that's really how my reviews go. I collect all of the little note feelings and then sit down to write my review.
If you're here from The Hop, welcome!

I love, love, LOVE your new blog design. It looks incredible.
I don't write reviews until after I'm finished either because like you said, it's unfair to pass judgement halfway through! Have an awesome weekend!
Hey Christina! I'm now following you.
I'm so glad I found your site - it's gorgeous! Did Danny from Dreamy Blogs design it? It looks amazing! I'll definitely be back to check on your reviews :D

Musings of a Reader Happy
Hey, found you through the hop! Happy friday! I'm a new follower! I look forward to reading your review's! This is me: http://thethoughtsofabookjunky.blogspot.com/
I write my review when I finish and use the notes I take on the insights I had to help me. I review solely on how I felt and so it's really made a difference in how I write.
HOP by and visit
Notes are always a must when you decide to review a book. It is always easy to remember, same as bookmarking :) Dropping by via the hop. Also became a follower through GFC. If you have the time, come visit me over Cladestine Sanctuary and don't forget to enter the giveaway.
I really like the idea of an Idea Book... I'm kind of notebook obsessed and need a new one for every new subject... (heaven forbid my craft notebook have book notes in it!)
