I once again didn’t do much this week. I wrote my first blog post for the Paper Lantern Lit Trendsetter program thing about cutest ships. It is literally me just word vomiting, but whatever. I still haven’t read anything other than my CPR packet and global textbook, but I need to read the first 5 chapters of A Darker Shade of Magic for a readalong, The Raven Boys, and Wolf by Wolf. Vacation starts next week, and for the first time ever I’m not going anywhere, other than Books of Wonder every other day. Hopefully I will read more.
I have an idea for a discussion post and a cover reveal Monday. I really need to read more.
Last week, I mentioned my goodreads goal of 10. If you remember, I said it was 52 a few weeks ago, but it was stressing me out, so I decided to lower it by a lot.
I have friends IRL that said they would help me redesign my blog. If you have any suggestions comment below.
I wouldn’t worry about the post for Paper Lantern Lit Trendsetter; word vomits can be wonderful to read!
I really don’t place a lot of importance on Goodreads goals. Last year, I set a goal for 1,000 books, mainly because I just wanted to see how many books I read in a year (50 something, I believe). This year I’m aiming for 75, but we’ll see. I’m a mood reader and I think it makes every book so much more enjoyable. If I feel pressured to read a book, even by myself, it can detract from the story.
Wolf by Wolf is on my TBR, and I’m currently reading A Darker Shade of Magic, so I’m excited to see what you think about those books!

It hasn’t quite sucked me in yet. We’ll see. How far along are you now?

I’m about to start part 3, but I had to listen to part 2 at double speed to try to join a Twitter chat. I’m going to reread it over the break.

Okay, I’m only on chapter 4?? I think. It will (probably) get better.
It’s hard enough for me to pay attention to a regular speed audio-I can’t imagine listening to 2x speed! Think you’ll like rereading it better?
