Poll Results--10/02/08--10/09/08

Thank you for those who participated in the latest polls! I appreciate all the input as you help me make the blog better! I will probably do similar polls at the beginning of every month, to give you a chance to vote again. :-) Okay...so here are the results and some, ahem, "commentary" from me. :-)

How often do you visit?

There were a total of 7 votes:

Daily..........................................................1 vote (14%)
Once a week.............................................3 votes (42%)
Three or more times a week...................2 votes (28%)
Once a month............................................1 vote (14%)
Never :-)...................................................0 votes (0%)
I'm new and I'm not sure yet :-)............0 votes (0%)

How often would you like to see books reviewed?

There were a total of 6 votes:

Daily..........................................................2 votes (33%)
Once a week.............................................3 votes (50%)
Three or more times a week...................1 vote (16%)
Once a month............................................0 votes (0%)
Never :-)...................................................0 votes (0%)
I'm new and I'm not sure yet :-)............0 votes (0%)

I found it interesting that I had two votes for books to be reviewed daily and yet only one vote that someone visits daily! However, I do find it somewhat time consuming to review a book a day, so I may go down to 3 or more times a week in the future. I was surprised that once a week got the most votes! Thanks for those votes, but I probably won't do a book a week for awhile. :-)

What are your favorite part(s) of the blog?

This poll allowed you to vote on multiple choices. There were a total of 7 votes.

The book reviews..................... 2 votes (28%)

Scripture of the week.................. 1 vote (14%)

Quote of the week...................... 3 votes (42%)

Polls............................................. 4 votes (57%)

Music........................................... 1 vote (14%)

Something else.............................. 2 votes (28%)

Wow! Polls win! I actually love the polls too, and the quote of the week. Hmm I think I need to work on my book reviews more though, since that's what the blog is about! :-)

Help me evaluate my book reviews...are they:

This poll had a total of 4 votes.

Perfect! Keep book reviews how they are..............1 vote (25%)

Too long! You're giving too many details &

spoiling the book for me.........................................1 vote (25%)

So-So! Do a mixture between long and short reviews............1 vote (25%)

Terrible! Review movies instead. :-)...........................0 votes (0%)

Other! Do more current books, don't you read anything

that wasn't written in the 1800s? :-)...............1 vote (25%)

Well, this wasn't overly helpful! No one wins! :-) So, I guess I will just keep all those in mind for future reference. :-) Thank you though to whoever thinks the reviews are perfect.... :-)

If I could add something to your blog, I'd like to see:
This poll had 6 votes, another multiple choice one.

Books that aren't so girly :-).............................4 votes (66%)
Movie Reviews.....................................................1 vote (16%)
More discussion questions...................................1 vote (16%)
Have more stuff about you and you're family.....1 vote (16%)
Pictures!.....................................................................1 vote (16%)
Something else (email with a suggestion)..............2 votes (33%)

Wow! Books that aren't so girly wins! By a wide margin too! Ahem, I don't know if I should be honored that guys are reading my blog, horrified that the girls think the books or too girly, or disgusted that you think late 1800s and early 1900s fiction is "girly!" :-) (joking)
Anyway, I will keep that in mind for future book reviews. :-)
Movie reviews...I know my brother voted on that. :-) That may come in the future, but probably not for awhile.
Something else...hmm, never did get any emails on that! :-)

Thank you again for your participation! It was very helpful! Have a great week!
