That's awesome! Hope you weren't in the hospital for a bad reason

nope, just a check up- thanks though

That's good. I need to get a vaccine but I keep forgetting...

It's not super spoilery and it's not as detailed so I sti..."

Oh wow XD I loved the first one. Planning on getting my study out of the way this morning and then sitting down and just straight up finishing one of my little books and getting majority done through another one (no br unfortunately :()

I just finished Midnight Alley, definitely a huge improvement over Book 2.

Well that's exciting!

Finally got my photos onto the computer xD

My newly arranged bookshelves :D I'm proud of them.

Not sure what's up with the quality but anyway XD

And yeah those shelves are double-stacked with the ugly ones at the back XD

Oh my God! You're shelves are beaut, mine are a right mess

Thanks, they're looking really good now XD As I spent around 5 hours rearranging them last night :p I'm so pleased with them right now.

I keep looking at them haha.

I think when I rearrange next I'll put the series back together, and face my favourite covers out, with the bigger formats at the edge of each cube.

That looks so awesome!! I wish I had more books and shelves. I probably don't even have half of what you do.

I'll be finishing today. It seems I'm at least partway out of my reading slump. :)

Yay! Hope you're enjoying your book.

I'll be finishing today. And hopefully start later today. More studying to do right now.

Sorry for my slump :/ Just not in the mood. Read maybe 15% yesterday. I did do quite a lot of study though. I'm just really not in the mood. Been thinking of ideas for my blog too (anyone interested in me linking it when it's up?) I need some ideas for what to include. I'll definitely put all of my reviews up. Not sure what else to do though. Maybe Top 5 Wednesday (if I'm allowed as I'm not on BookTube) or Book Tags or something? I just want to keep it kind of professional because at a later date I'll be requesting books from publishers. So I don't want to make it too silly.

I wish I could make a BookTube channel but I have no clue how to edit :/

I'd say look at other popular book blogs and base yours off that. I know my friend put links to her other book things as well as her currently reading shelf.

What do you mean by other book things?

She has goodreads, book instagram, twitter and her email on it

Posted my review for Dead Witch Walking. While not a BR it did get us 6 points a least. :)

I'm probably going to read another two or three books from that series before I try to read one of my BRs so I don't get into another reading slump. :)

@Andrea: Ah yeah right. I'm going to make all of my accounts and my blog now XD Got up a few hours early to do it, as I'm supposed to be studying all day for my exam tomorrow and the next day.

@Book: Sounds good! Just keep chugging along.

I can't believe how long it's actually been since I decently read anything. Apart from audio XD I should have Life After Life (12 points) done today.
I'm also fitting in 2 middle-grade books for challenges in next, so who knows when I'll get to the novellas for Morganville. Haven't even read #2 yet XD Seriously tempted to drop all of my physical BRs but I know if I do that it'll just be silly because only half points for everything.

I'm halfway through Feast of Fools and I'm not sure when I'll finish. My friend is here for today and tomorrow and I have to crazy study for my test on Tuesday :/

I also read half of one chapter of Fireblood last night xD

I'm halfway through , & .

Should finish tomorrow.

and I started tonight as it's a library book and due back soon.

Looking good Rebecca! How're you liking Darren Shan? I suppose you didn't get my post about me wanting to buddy them? They used to be a favourite of mine :D

And I just got my blog up-and-running :D I'm going to link it because it needs more views (and because I hope you guys might actually like it :p) It's not finished, because study comes first, and I've got a friend making me a logo :p

It looks pretty good so far!!

Finished Feast of Fools. Starting Ensnared while I do some studying. Going to read some more of Fireblood later too :)

Finished which will get us another 6 points. :)

Yay!

I started Tales of the Peculiar buy my brain is being weird and doesn't want me to be productive

I'm too tired to post my review right now but I have it written so I can post it first thing tomorrow. :)

Awesome! I started looking at cats at my local humane society and I applied to volunteer there haha. Now i'm going to look at apartments

Maddison, I'm so sorry I didn't see your message about Buddy Reading Darren Shan. I will have a look at your blog at some point

Andrea wrote: "It looks pretty good so far!!"

Thanks! Not sure what's up with the stats though because my bf started following me, and it hasn't shown up yet.

No worries, and thanks yes please do!

And I also just finished Life After Life (12 points). Finally a finished book! My next one's real short, but I have an exam tomorrow afternoon and one the next afternoon, so between now and then I'm doing heaps of studying. Well I'm taking the rest of the night off as I'm really tired from studying, so I'm going to get a bit further into Venomous after I write my review and do my blog etc for Life After Life.

Good luck on your exams! I have one tomorrow morning too :/ But I can't wait to be done with it, I'll have more time to read.

Cats are wonderful! I had two but lost one last year. I still have my old girl though. :)

I'll post my review from last night soon. I'm about 20% into my third book in the series now. :)

They are <3 I can't wait to get my own cat!

2 reviews down... 5 to go.. I hate that I leave my reviews so long. I really need to start getting on top of it.

5 down, 3 to go... I'm gonna finish the rest and link them to the review thread tomorrow as I'm up at 6am tomorrow😫

At least you've only got one! I've got today's (approx 5 hours away) and then might go to the gym before starting full out study for tomorrow's. I haven't done much for that. Too tricky XD

I have no idea how you do it!

Haha I've only got a short shift tomorrow thank god.. 7-2 and I had today off apart from my driving lesson which is why I got the last of All My Secrets read, almost halfway through I Was Here and started a couple of pages of The Best of Adam Sharp. I also need to listen to the last few hours of Eragon to finally get that off of my currently reading. And 6 reviews out of 8 done... all in all feels like a pretty productive day👌🏻😌

Yay! :D I love it when days off are actually days off, they're not days spent doing other jobs XD

I'm working 7-2 on Friday, and it's one of my longer shifts that I just picked up XD I normally work either 5hrs or 3.5hrs
