For the second month in a row, there was tremendous movement within the Top 10 reviews of all time! In addition to having a review jump up to my second most-read review of all time, we managed to pull in the most hits of any month since the blog started a year and a half ago! In fact, March's hits account for more than 10% of the blog's all-time traffic! This is very exciting for us.
Conversely, we lost two regular subscribers. :( This is disappointing and while we love having slews of random readers, we'd like to build our subscribing reader base. Anyone with ideas, please feel free to comment!
In March, we were able to keep the Index Pages up and updated the entire month, making for a very dynamic website. The primary Index Page, which is now updated daily, lets you know what the featured review is and has an up-to-the-day tally of how many reviews have been reviewed in each category!
If you enjoy the reviews, please consider clicking on the links in the reviews and purchasing items. By purchasing items through the links on the blog, you sponsor my ability to continue reviewing. Thank you so much for that support!

I pride myself on being an exceptionally fair reviewer, but one who is very discriminating. I believe that most reviewers are far too biased toward both what is current and toward unduly praising things. I tend to believe most things actually are average and they ought to follows something around a Bell Curve. Mine is a little lopsided, but not as lopsided as most reviewers I know (who would probably have peak numbers between ten and seven!
For my reviews, the current count is:
10s - 236 reviews
9s - 277 reviews
