    Reading break?

    in General Book Discussions

    Posted

    I go through waves of reading a lot to reading nothing. There are times where I just do not feel like reading. I don't know why. And I've been in that slump for awhile (probably thanks to school and wedding planning. But still! I love reading, what is wrong with me?!) It's totally normal! Happens to a lot of people :)

    Why persevere when you're not enjoying it? Generally I stick with the 100 page rule, if I'm not enjoying it by then I pass it on to someone who might! :)

     

    I was going to give up but a few people had told me that it gets better and to keep going. I kept going and nothing is better about it but i've made it so far I feel I should finish it. Silly, I know! haha If I were only 100 pages in and hadn't had any encouragement to keep going, I would definitely put it down!

    What's up in August?

    Happy Anniversary!

     

    August is a busy month for me. My friend returns from her 4 month trip to South East Asia tomorrow! Saturday my Fiance, his parents and I all leave for vacation for a week. Later this month is our 2 year anniversary! On top of everything, I have to get ready for school which starts next month! Stoked :D

    I started 'The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo' yesterday, but to be honest, I really am struggling to get in to it! and it is a beast of a book (on 465 pages) but the type face is TINY!!!

    The first half of the book is a bit of a drag but it does get better! I promise! Totally worth continuing with :)

     

    Finished Divergent by Veronica Roth. I really really enjoyed this book! I got a bit of a Hunger Games vibe from it, but it moves past that very quickly. Intriguing story! I couldn't put it down!

     

    Now comes the fun part - trying to find my next read! It isn't going too well...

    Oh man, sounds just awesome, what a great Xmas gift! :D I'd love to get a hold of the book some day, I'm going to go and add it to my wishlist and see if by any slim chance the library might have a copy :)

     

    It was a great gift! My boyfriend knows how much I love the show <3

    I hope you're able to get a copy of it! I definitely recommend it for any Gilmore fans!

    Now I must get my hands on The Gilmore Girls Companion book! hehe

    What?! Do you own a copy? Could you please tell me more about what the book is like? I'm sure there are others who are curious about it too! :)

     

    Coffee at Luke's? yes I do, it was also an xmas gift! :D

    Its basically just a bunch of essays written by various people about the show. Examples of essays: one talks about the mother-daughter bond and how hard it would be in 'real life.' Another talks about Stars Hollow and small towns, and how well businesses would fare in the real world. One defends Emily, who is not the villain everyone thinks she is. Another talks about the way the show perceives sexuality and relationships with men, etc. It was pretty interesting! And it was nice to see what others thought about the show (as I am a HUGE Gilmore Girls junky!)
