Book 4 is finished now. I always forget about how silly the Goosebumps books are and how simple the writing style is. When I was younger I thought they were awesome but now I read them as an adult and see that they aren't even that well written, but man did they influence my early … Continue reading Readathon Hours 11 + 12 – Half way there!

Readathon Hours 6-10 : Slow Goings
Despite having been reading for 10 hours, and getting through a tedious 300+ page book in the first few hours of the readathon, I seem to have run out of steam a bit. Not surprising as that book was basically lists of words and reading so many lists is quite draining. It took me a while to … Continue reading Readathon Hours 6-10 : Slow Goings
Readathon Hours 3-5 – One book down… phew!
Man this has been the longest few hours of my life, but like a trooper I ploughed on through the 800 pages of random words from foreign languages, and oddities from various dialects.

Now I will begin reading my first book of the day. My laptop is not plugged in, and the connection … Continue reading Readathon April 2013 Hour 01! – It starts…
Readathon – My prize donations
Who says I am not generous? Not only am I trying to raise money for Aid for Japan during this readathon (donate here please!) but I am also giving away some great books as prizes, donating most to the prize fund of the readathon team itself, but also (fingers crossed) giving some away on here … Continue reading Readathon – My prize donations
Inspired by ~ Kim & her review of Ruby Red (Edelstein Trilogie #1) by Kerstin Gier
Kim's Review of Ruby Red (Edelstein Trilogie #1) by Kerstin Gier. This book sounds just up my street! I'm a big fan of time-travel, historical novels, and young adult romance. Also fiction in translation, which is essentially what this is. A story translated from the German. I am intrigued. Will review as soon as I … Continue reading Inspired by ~ Kim & her review of Ruby Red (Edelstein Trilogie #1) by Kerstin Gier
