I personally like reading our own books and blogging about it. There is more independence because you get to choose the book yourself. I don't know about you but reading tends to be more enjoyable when you get to choose something you enjoy rather than having a limited selection of books. I did like getting to conversate on the wiki page because it is interesting to see other points of view on the book you are reading. Before I read any book at all, I like to see how others feel about it. After blogging and chating on the wiki, I have gained new social skills with other people as well as being able to speak my mind on how I feel about topics with other people.
