Sobre mí

1/8/15: Wow, I had a strong start for 2014, and a nonexistent finish. How depressing. I did start a few books, but most couldn't hold my interest longer than a few chapters. I've been working on the Immortal Crown by Richelle Mead for months now, but I get bored during the non-Justin/Mae parts and put it down for weeks at a time. I did, however, read the new Ghoul book by Victoria Laurie in a single day, while I was flying back to L.A. after Christmas and New Year's in Massachusetts. Hopefully a fresh new start for reading in 2015?

6/5/13: So many books I'm in the middle of, but can't seem to finish. They're not holding my interest at all, not even the Lucas Davenport book. :-(

1/27/2013: I really like Victoria Laurie's "Ghosthunter" series, but so far it's been impossible for me to find any similar books. I like sassy heroines, but not books where every!single!line! is sassy, and I like ghosts, but not necessarily friendly ones, and definitely not sassy wisecracking ones, which seems to be the type that are flooding the market these days. Where are the other spooky ghost stories with a sense of humor??

9/12/2011: This has been a really bad year for reading for me. I think it's because I've been trying not to buy new books and read only from my TBR shelf, and yet, when I try to read something from there, I lose interest within the first four chapters. I don't know if it's a mild depression thing, or if I really did just buy a bunch of books I'm not actually interested in. So I bought a bunch of books for my birthday, and again this weekend, and I've already finished one and I'm more than halfway through two more. Fingers crossed for a better end to the year.

6/4/2011: Good freakin' lord, June and I've only read ten books so far. So so wrong. I just haven't been inspired by anything this year. Gotta fix that this summer.

2/7/2011: Rereading Harry Potter is giving me a slow start to getting back on track with my reading average. Taking a break btw/ GoF and OotP to squeeze in some quickie reads, bring the numbers up.

6/13/2010: Slow going this year. Lots going on in the RL that's curtailing my reading time. Suspect that, come December, I'll be way short of beating last year's book total.
