Index of Reviews

I don't write a ton of reviews.  I understand that to many, reviews are what define a book blog, but since I don't READ a lot of reviews, I don't feel compelled to write many.  However, certain books beg for analysis and response, so when I'm moved to, I write reviews.  They are often biased, inclined towards spoilers while avoiding actual summaries, and probably reveal as much about me as about the book, so consider yourselves warned.  Also, sometimes I am moved to say SOMETHING, but not a whole review's worth, so I jot my thoughts on Goodreads, and when I have three or so piled up, I copy and paste them in batches onto my blog.  Thus, "Mini Reviews."  Sounds more elegant (and intentional) that way.
