What do you think of people who write book reviews? Well, that is what I just got hired to do for two sites and maybe a third. I started on one site but the other ones will not start till after Easter or Spring Break whatever you want to call it.
I like the idea of being a book reviewer. It is a job that lets me read and write and share ideas and opinions. I will not get rich but I will make enough to live on in my retirement it looks like finally after trying to find a job for close to four years.

Congratulations to you. Book reviewing has always interested me but I think that I would not have the courage to read constantly. On the other hand it would take me off from being online as much so I should consider it. I enjoy reading though not every genre of books. But thank you for your post and for suggesting this type of relaxing work or rather leisure activity.

That is great you are getting to do this. That is something I would like to do but don't know which sites offer it.

That sounds like an interesting thing to do. Do you select the books, or do they?

I have written a number of book reviews. It's a personal opinion like anything else. Enjoy it if you do them.

I always wanted to do this. It is a form of journalism and creativity to make someone want to read something that the reader will make time for and not a waste of time.

I'm not that much into reading. My primary effort is directed toward the Bible. But in my old age, I tend to watch movies, rather than read books. Typically top-notch material such as Bleak House.

Awesome! What better way to earn money by reading and giving feedback of a book? Heck, are they hiring? Lol. I'd love to get paid for reading and reviewing.
