New Site to See--Readiac


Readiac: only the books you MUST read is a new website that "exists for one purpose: to celebrate the truly powerful experiences we have when we read a really great book." From the creator:
There are plenty of wonderful book review websites, magazines, literary and book related communities, where people can share their thoughts and ideas about books and writers. And many of them are wonderful.

But I wanted to be able to publish just the reviews and other types of writing (memoirs, essays, even literary criticism) that communicate the powerful transcendent and inebriating experience of reading a great book. Readiac gives readers (and writers) an opportunity to tell the world when a book or an author simply knocks your socks off, blows you away, takes you completely out of yourself, transcends every expectation, and transports you to that mysterious place we go when we experience literary greatness. I think that’s alot more interesting for me as a reader anyway. I want to know when a book is having that kind of effect on people, and I want to know the why and the how.
Have you read a really great book lately? To submit a review of your own, email it to readiac.com@gmail.com or use the contact form on the website.
