Is anyone else having odd issues with the site? Some of the books I've tasted are marked as being read twice and a few of my reviews are missing.

Holy crap do I need to catch up on everything here! Updates to everything coming soon!!! Sorry for the basic absence from here. I've missed everyone!!! I should have caught up with my list by this weekend! Reviews will be following.

Hmm... To increase my reading challenge or not... Decisions, decisions.

My husband thinks I should spend less time reading after showing him my "currently reading" collection on my kindle app. (It is sitting at a lovely 94 books at the moment) I just laughed, knowing full well not all the books I am currently reading are ebooks so that list doesn't have all the books yet. Shhh!!! He doesn't need to know the true extent of my addiction or how often I really do read!

So awesome realization!

(Spoiler for those who have not yet read IT by Stephen King)

IT is a Boggart!!! Wait, think about it for a second!
IT changes into your darkest fears! Umm - Boggart
It gets power from your fear. Again Boggart
It lurks in dark creepy places. Also a Boggart thing.
Confrontation or fighting back makes IT weak. Same with Boggart.
IT's true form is unknown. Also Boggart.

Thus IT is Boggart.

So awesome realization!

Alright my fellow book addicts I have need of your extensive knowledge! My ebook game needs an upgrade. I am looking for a new ereader. What are your opinions on the current models available? Any/all advice or tips on my search would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

It's Official. My To-Read List has gotten out of control. I don't know whether I should be ecstatic over all the books or a little concerned about my obvious addiction.

... I think both. Both is good.

Text Convo w/ Hubby

H: Can't talk on your lunch sorry
M: It's fine I have date with book bf
H: Haha have fun tell Vlad hi
M: Gasp! Who told you about Vlad? Also not Vlad
H: Do you not know how many vampire books you read? When did you start cheating on Vlad? Who's the new guy?
M: *indignant sputtering sounds* NO ONE!
M: DON'T TELL VLAD!!!
H: HAHAHAHA

I love him and his nonchalance about my numerous book affairs.

Guys I'm Loving this book so far!

I really wish I had been smart enough to review as I read. Instead I decided it would be better to ponder the book and review later. Later, at this point, meaning sometime in the next 5 years. Dear lord have I got a lot of catching up to do.

Whoa, super short chapters!

Still really early on but I don't know who the narrator is. Hmm. Wonder if I will ever know.

Random Convo WIth The Hubby

H: (has been chatting for a while) What do you think?
Me: (Reading) ...
H; Hello?
Me: ...........
H: Why are you ignoring me?
Me: (Finally starts paying attention) I'm not ignoring you. I'm just dealing with a lot right now.
H: Like what?
Me: So a nephilim, Death, and demon possessed seer are all arguing right now...
H: Stop. Just keep reading.
Me: That's what I thought. (keeps reading)

... I hate indecisive book days. The days where you want to read but no matter what you do you can't stick with a book through more than a chapter or two before moving onto the next for no reason at all. It's no fault of the books. They just don't hold sway over my mind today.

Note to self, apparently the optimal time to write entertaining and slightly deranged book reviews is between 2 and 5 am. Must investigate further. Will update when more information is gathered.

Took me long enough to find this book again. Now to start up where I left off!

Ever read a book that you would normally find really interesting and it just isn't doing it for you? Yeah, that's this book right now.
