Why Are Book Blogs So Damn Sexy?

“Bookslut is not alone in their sexual allusion. A quick search reveals many ravenous book bloggers out there. Book Strumpet, Book Vixen, Book Whore and less gender specific names like Bookgasm, Book Lust and last but not least a site pandering Book Shelf Porn. For the record there is a Book Gigolo out there too, offering his bookish services. No Book Pimp is operating currently, which is a positive I suppose.”

MobyLives wonders why so many book blogs have such interesting names.
