As 2019 kicks off, it looks like John is pivoting from buildings to books, as evidenced in the new format and title of his blog,&nbsp;"<a href="https://archidose.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">A Daily Dose of Architecture Books</a>".&nbsp;</p> <p>The new blog replaces his two previous blogs, "A Daily Dose of Architecture"&nbsp;(2004-2018) and "A Weekly Dose of Architecture" (1999-2014). The new blog will feature a book review every day, in a rigid structure consisting of title, author, publisher, date, cover image, publication details, publisher description, photos of page spreads, author bio, referral links, and commentary about the book by the author.&nbsp;</p> <p>To source, read, vet and review a book every day, even if it's rather brief, as it tends to be with his first few reviews, is quite an impressive feat. Hopefully he'll keep this up...</p>
