I decided to start this blog to help me get through the heap of books on my bookshelf that need to be read. You see, I have this terrible habit of compulsively buying books and then setting them on the bookshelf to collect dust. Horrible, I know.
I've been going alphabetically through my books and have finally made it to F! However, I have of course been back to the bookstore and picked up books by authors with A, B, C, and D last names ::sigh::
Not quite sure what will go into this blog, but I suppose it will take it's own shape soon enough :). I've been trying to read at least 1 book a week.
To start with, I will tell you that I started reading Dark Slayer by Christine Feehan last night. I got to page 100 and then promptly shut the book. Wow, that was really boring. And what's with all the songs and chants? I admit, I skipped over those. Maybe it's just me, but I did not feel any connection to the characters. They were boring and dull. No personalities at all! Now, I know that this book is part of a series and maybe I should have read the books that went before....but there's like what? 20? Ugh, if I read all those I might never get through the alphabet! I guess I'll give the author another try once my quest is complete ;) After all, most reviewers seem to love Feehan's series. I hope I just read the bad book out of the bunch ::fingers crossed!::
Next up to read: If I stay by Gayle Forman.
( Uhhh I don't know how to put pictures in here...anyone care to enlighten me I'd be much appreciated!)

I remember asking a friend of mine for the name of a really 'typical' paranormal romance novel as a throwaway reference in a paper I gave and she came back with a Christine Feehan title. *shudder*

Don't worry! Before I started my blog, I only read book blogs but I got better at it and I'm sure you will to!
