Lists, Reviews, and Other Boring Stuff

Okay...I really don't know what to write about. Post ideas have evaded me for days. I thought I'd make a list. Maybe a few. I have read a few articles that say readers like lists so that they don't have to go find the information by themselves. Apparently reviews are helpful, too, since people want honest opinions, which they usually don't find on the Internet. So...Here goes.

Books:

For adults, I found a list on the Time website. Here it is. http://time.com/2815951/best-books-of-2014-so-far/

For young adults, http://www.ala.org/yalsa/2014-best-fiction-young-adults

For children, http://www.ala.org/alsc/awardsgrants/notalists/ncb

For toddlers, I found this on Flipboard. Not much, but better than nothing! You can use it for ideas or just find books for your prince or princess at your local library or bookstore, since I wasn't much help at all, was I? https://flipboard.com/section/best-baby-books-2014---top-rated-infant-and-toddler-books-b9Z8xp

I can do movies or something soon. Are reviews a good idea? Please comment below and let me know.

By the way, you might have noticed that I changed my favicon to, er, a paintbrush. You may think, "What kind of arbitrary object has this Riya put up on her blog for no reason?" Well, I have a reason. I wanted to represent creativity. I tried to find images of a brain, but there are just too many squiggly lines to look nice as an image less than 100KB. If anyone can find something better, please let me know. Don't judge me... :-)
