How long do you see yourself blogging for? Do you think it’s ok for a blog to evolve over time?
At this moment in time I see myself blogging for quite a few years to come. I’ve been searching for a hobby that would completely satisfy my idle time(other than reading of course) for a while but nothing seemed to hold my interest for very long. When I first discovered Goodreads and other book blogs I didn’t intend on every starting my own blog but the more and more I seen how fabulous they were the more I wanted to try it. One day I just sat down at the computer and decided to give it a go. I was hooked instantly. I absolutely adore blogging, interacting with other book lovers, reading blogs… I love EVERYTHING about blogging right now. Obviously that can change at any given moment but I can’t see it in the near future.
I think it’s definitely ok for a blog to evolve over time. Of course your interests may change so it’s natural for something to evolve with that. An example would even be my own blog. I started off wanting to review only young adult and I did for quite a while. Now it includes new adult and some adult fiction as well. I still post mainly Young Adult but my interests have broadened a bit and it’s only natural to want to include those new-found loves!
Well, short and sweet this week 😛
What are everyone else’s thoughts?? Link up please!!

I am going on 6 years and actually burnt out. Its time and wanting to go back to school. I still love to read but want to enjoy it even more 🙂
Wow Julie, 6 years is SO long!!! It’s a lot of work so I can see how you get burnt out!
I love Goodreads and book blogs! Although I have lots of hobbies, I tend to change interests multiple times. I can’t stick to just one, I want to do them all, even though I know I’ll fail at it miserably. Who wouldn’t want to try new things, right?
It’s great your blog and reviews changed over time, I’ll say maybe mine is curving that way too. Sometime this coming future. 🙂
I change interests as well but this is the one thing I have stuck to consistently in awhile so I think it’s here for a bit 😛 I totally agree… try as many new things as you can 😀
Book blogging is such a great hobby isn’t it? I’m so glad you love everything about blogging! Other blogger’s enthusiasm rubs off on me!
I wanted to only blog about Horror when I first started, but realized that would narrow my own reading experience in a way.
That’s the hard part about picking a “genre” to blog about! I realized that I had stopped reading adult fiction that I loved because I figured what was the point.. I couldn’t review it and then I’d be behind. It’s so silly to think that… I finally realized and now I post everything 🙂
