Using an extremely scientific yet secret method, I have decided to commit my time and hard-earned attention to The Daily Beast (with maybe the occasional peek over at NPR Books) and the adorably-named Stop, You're Killing Me! mystery site. Links are to the right, so maybe I'll actually visit them.
Okay, perhaps I can share a little of the secret method. I've heard bunches about DB but my general inertia has kept me from visiting regularly, and even then it was mostly the home page (not the concentrated dose of goodness that's on the Books page). So, no brainer. As for the other, mystery is not one of my most well-liked genres although it is a favorite of a lot of our customers, and therefore naturally provides the most learning bang for my buck. (Pow!) Also, mystery puns are sillier and usually more work-appropriate than most urban fiction puns (which was choice #2). RT Book Review was completely out, since I shamelessly and ravenously consume each print issue we get in the branch the moment it arrives. Not much learning potential there. *smirk*
