The Blair Book Project

Hello! I'm Janus. I am a 3D Graphics Artist by profession, and a proud Book Addict - i mean Enthusiast, and Blogger. I'm very much into Young Adult and Fantasy genre but I open myself to reading other genres from time to time. I run a blog launched as The Blair Book Project on Blogger, where I post entries such as my book reviews and other book related articles. I obviously got the name of this blog for the movie "The Blair Witch Project," why the name you may ask? I have no idea! I just thought it had a good ring to it. Ha! Ha! I post reviews twice a week and I regularly participate in book memes and features that readers and blogger all over the globe share their book interests (i.e. In My Malibox, Top Ten Tuesdays, etc). I have 230 GFC Followers. My blog has over 37,000 pageviews history and have roughly 200 page views per day. I have written over 267 reviews since my span of blogging. I am also an avid Instagram user, with over 350 followers, where I post pictures mostly of books I'm currently reading, books I got for review, galleys, purchased from bookstores, etc. (Statistics as of March 2013). My book reviews are not exactly "reviews" in a sense because I simply just type down what I feel about the book. What I write is solely my opinion and should not be taken as a definite basis of how the book is to be judged entirely. We all have different likes and dislikes so please do understand that although I'm very optimistic about the books I read, there will be negative comments towards those that I don't find suiting for my taste.

Psyche in a Dress

Psyche in a Dress - Francesca Lia Block I loved the idea of a new twist on Cupid and Psyche's story but this was just plain confusing. I don't know if Block's writing was just too complex for me or I just found several things too dark and disturbing(probably both).I had a hard time picturing out some events; I don't understand why the main character had to change her name several times just to accentuate what life the character reflects in the original mythology. I was mostly perplexed with Narcissus' chapter, what was that about anyway??? I've heard of him being self-absorbed but I think that went overboard.The book had a good message for women but I felt something missing with how the book was written. I felt like I was expecting something that I can't quite explain. For more of my reviews, please visit my blog: The Blair Book Project @ www.theblairbookproject.blogspot.com
