I've just added a bunch of books to my "currently reading"-list. That's a lie, I'm not reading this books, I've already read them but never rated or reviewed them. And these are only the books I have on my new kindle...I shudder to think what is left on my old one to review.

I feel bad about this. I mean, I love to read, I should be able to write a few sentences to review a book, right? Especially if I loved a book, I should support all these amazing authors.

Even worse is, I probably have forgotten my initial reaction to some of them.

So....I go to bed now....and feel bad.

I'm aborting my experiment to try and read German m/m books - I mean, not books translated from English to German but m/m books written in German.
Sorry my dear fellow countrymen - I can't bear it. I'm back to English.

And that makes me wonder - dear English native speaker - can you answer me this one question: When you read a sex scene, do you think the characters and everything sounds like cheap porn? Maybe they do but I've never noticed because it's not my native language.....

Geeez, I feel bad. I've only been reviewing sporadically and now I realized I have a backlog I don't even know how to get it done. I try to mark every book I still have to review with "currently reading" so I don't forget about it. So be paitent with me. No, I'm not reading all these books at the same time, most of them I've already read months ago :(

OMG - I did it. I never thought I would do something like that so spontaneous...okay, I thought about it a day or two but still...I'm going to the UK LGBT Fiction Meet in Bristol in June. I'm going to meet awesome authors!!! I'm going to room with an awesome author!!! Anyta Sunday!!

I'm still not really sure what I have done but I'm exhilarated.
