2017 wasn’t the greatest reading year for me. It’s strange saying that considering I met my Good Reads challenge, 42 books, but it’s true. You see, last year was the first year that I incorporated graphic novels into my reading challenge having always just counted the novels, but I figured they’re books too and I read them so they should be on the list. I … Continue reading The Reading Challenge That Was/The Reading Challenge That Is
Geeklings, Happy New Year to you all! We did it, we made it to 2018, I know it seemed like it was a little impossible at times, but here we are with an empty canvas of a year ahead of us. Let’s make it the best possible. I’ve already set up my Good Reads reading challenge (45) and picked my first two books of the … Continue reading Week In Geek- X-Files, Miles Morales Movie, & More Chappelle
I abandoned a book today. No, not on the street or anything but in the sense where I stopped reading it over three hundred pages in. Just stopped. Couldn’t do it anymore. I looked at myself and asked the very serious question, “are you really going to finish this”, and wasn’t surprised to find out that the answer was no. My heart just wasn’t into it. … Continue reading Woeful Confessions From A Reader
I’m starting to wonder if the starting of this list has some how jinxed my reading progress for the year. It feels like month after month I come here and “complain” that I’m not reading fast enough or at the pace I usually am. Is it because I’ve got a lot of things going on and just don’t have the time I used to read? … Continue reading 2017 Reading List- May
Geeklings, I can’t figure out if I’m having a good reading year or not and that’s bothering me. For one thing, I set my Good Reads goal at 42 because I reached 41 books last year and, as we all know, the meaning of life is 42 which made it seem like a healthy choice. Yet here we are four months in and I can’t … Continue reading 2017 Reading List- April
If you recall, February was not a very good reading month for me. I struggled to finish one book and I blamed it, mostly, on the fact that the book wasn’t that good. Yet it suckered me in and by the time I realized I didn’t care about the story I was already 50% through and past the point of giving up. Don’t you hate … Continue reading 2017 Reading List- March
Geeklings, I’m having one of those moral dilemmas. It’s one of those moments where you have to hunker down and make a decision. Time is of the essence so to speak. Allow me to explain. I need to know if I should give up on the book I’m reading or not. Normally I hate doing that, I try to stick it out even if the … Continue reading When Is It Okay To Give Up On A Book?
