I review only about one in ten of the books that I read. I always MEAN to do them all but somehow I end up with a pile of books that I just don't get round to telling the world about.
So I wondered, what proportion of the books you read do you review?
Which genres do you find easiest and hardest – for me the easiest are ones I either adore or absolutely hate and some of the hardest are the non-fiction ones that Vlad's sent me (any tips on reviewing non-fiction would be welcomed)
And finally – does anyone have any tips for how to motivate yourself to get on and do them? I mostly write travel reviews and I write down all the details in my notebooks so I can write the review after – does anyone have some good tips for how to do something similar with books?

I don't review all the books I read, but have managed to review about two thirds lately. If I review a book I have to write the review immediately after reading it whilst it is still fresh in my mind and also my feelings whilst reading it.
I love reviewing books as I love reading. I find it easier to review things I am passionate about and that is why books, music and travel are my favourite review topics.

I've found that there are quite a lot of books I'd like to review, because they're so interesting, but I don't tend to get round to it unless I feel some sense that I need to, generally because it has been sent to me as a free review copy.
I'm not sure I find any of them easy to review – I find it harder to write reviews on books I don't like very much but don't have very strong opinions on.
