I only read two, at the moment, because they're the only ones I really know about:
Bookslut (www.bookslut.com/blog/) The Elegant Variation (http://marksarvas.blogs.com/elegvar/)
I have my own at www.vestige.org/daily/ but I won't comment on its quality.
Anyone else have some recommendations?

It's not the currently popular genre - it's discussions on who's reading what, recommendations, etc. And Bookslut.com is excellent!

I can, and will, talk all day about books. Especially if you feed me Guinness beer.

I dig yer blog, but it's about films, not books. This is a book/lit category, and I hate to say it but usually the book is way better than the movie. Unless we're talking about Apocalypse Now. Or One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
Come to think of it, what are your ideas on books/movies, and which convey the idea better?

Ach, that's horrible news. Always one of my go-to sites back in the day. He seemed inexhaustible.
