Need help figuring out what on earth to on your blog? Comment ideas for what to write or asking for help for what to write here!

I only have one thing I can think of to post on my blog.
And it requires other humans.
So I have been without BLOG POSTS since my BLOG started.
Please send help.

I'm a month late but if you still want ideas: recs, opinions (i'm writing one on why i hate cliffhangers atm). Lists are also a pretty fun. Things like reading habits, tropes. Those are pretty basic though. Some of the more fun ones I've done are 5 things i want to see more of in ya books, my fictional bucket list, and i'm currently writing one on my fictional "family circle."

I'm reading this over and realizing it might not make a whole lot of sense but I'm tired so I'm just gonna leave it be. Enjoy :)

I want to post something...new on my blog.
I want to post something different.
I think I want it to be collaborative but I DONT KNOW WHATTTT
It's just what I want to do, I have no ideas on what I actually want it to be.
But I think it would be pretty fun to have a collaborative thing where there are a LOT of bloggers doing like a specific post or--ARGH I DONT KNOW

So I actually wrote a post similar to the second one you suggested that I’m probably gonna post tomorrow.


Okay I think I got an idea but it’s not very good and I don’t think it’ll work but I’ll say it anyways.

So I want to do something like a mix of a buddy read and a blog tour. That probably makes no sense. But like...okay a giant buddy read. Like four to six people or so. We could all read the book in one month and then...you know in blog tours how there’s different parts? To be fair I’ve never done a blog tour but isn’t there usually like a review and an author interview and a few other things as well? So we could do something like that with the book we all buddy read but instead of doing different things like an interview with the author, there would be different stops along the review. Everyone would write their own reviews and then one person would take the part of the review that talked about the characters and put all the different thoughts on characters on one blog. One person would take the plot...etc etc.
That probably made no sense and I’m typing on my phone but as soon as I get on my computer I’ll try to explain a little more. It’s not a very good idea anyways, I’m not exactly sure how we’d do it so...

@Phoenix
That sounds... Complicated? And... Not everyone divides their reviews like that? I know I don't talk about the characters unless I have something I want to say about them, I mostly just state my feelings about the book and hope it doesn't look like a mess. I dunno.

Ah sorry I didn't respond till now.
I know it does sound a little complicated but maybe we could make it work.
Yes, I know and most people don't divide their reviews like that--I do but I'm probably going to change that pretty soon. But this...technically isn't another review? I just thought it would be a fun way to see a lot of people's opinions on a certain element of a book in one time. But you never have to do it! It's totally optional. We only need like 4 or 5 people anyways so that's fine.

As for explaining it more, I'll try. Sorry if this is still confusing.
So first, we'd have 4 or 5 different people who run blogs. They'd all read the same book. Then they'd write what they thought of the book in different categories--they would probably write a category about what they thought of characters, of the plot, of the world building (if it weren't realistic fiction I guess), of the romance, maaaybe of the ending? Then, each person would take a different topic. They'd get the thoughts from everyone on that topic and post all the thoughts on that topic on their blog. So it's sort of a way to show people what a bunch of different people think of a book in one place (we'd link to the other parts of the thing on each of the blogs)
