Reflection on the first half of 2013...


At the beginning of the year I made a note to myself stating how I would connect with more bloggers, read more books and write better reviews. Six months later, I've failed miserably at all three. Well...I like my reviews, they're informal, concise, personal and still informative. So maybe not a complete fail. But definitely failures on the other two.

I still have many books to read for my challenges. My current read is turning out to be a serious roadblock...but I must endure. Also, I decided to change blog platforms earlier this year:

A Morose Bookshelf 

It's not quite where I want it to be, but I really like it so far. Please check it out and let me know what you think...subscribe...leave comments, whatever. Eventually, all my thoughts will be on this new site.

Also--I joined a bookclub the other day. Which is a step for me. So maybe networking with other bookworms and bloggers can still happen. We'll see. I'm not thrilled about the first book because it's YA and dystopia. YA, Dystopia!

I can't get away.

I'm being silly...it could be amazing, right? I'll have to purchase the kindle edition because there is no way in hell I'm paying $18.00 for a hardcover of this book--no way!

So far I've only read few spectacular books...then again I haven't read many books at all. Maybe 15 or so. (Do not judge!) I know once I get past this current book, I'll pick up my reading pace and everything will be good.
