At least they're sensible and achievable, not OMG I AM GOING TO READ ALL THESE BOOKS. <br /><br />I think you should read Jamrach's Menagerie so I can stop eyeing it up in charity shops and actually decide once and for all whether to buy it or not :)<br /><br />I am really curious about Perks/Wallflower, although I'm kind of scared of it. I'm anxious about not liking it as much as everybody else to begin with and secondly I'm going to have to try REALLY HARD not to assume it's rubbish just because it's been tainted by Emma Watson...Hanna @ Booking in Heelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17705048655467252248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-7177372891247200442013-05-12T14:13:00.746+01:002013-05-12T14:13:00.746+01:00Yay for overly-ambitious piles of books!

Ok, that sounds weird but I hope you like it all the same!<br /><br />Oh, and home-made cheese straws sound amazing - go with those :)Lit Addicted Brithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15307643382274474774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-60086147190094678532013-05-11T14:57:36.145+01:002013-05-11T14:57:36.145+01:00I love pictures of book piles! good luck with your...I love pictures of book piles! good luck with your readathon - it looks like you have your work cut out for you. I'll be interested to see what you think of Citadel. I've liked a couple of her books, but not all. So I'm curious about this latest one and if I should add it to my TBR pile or not.Trishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18273468231529654323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-23165855354069034512013-05-11T11:21:39.103+01:002013-05-11T11:21:39.103+01:00Yay for BoB!

I always get very aspirational with my reading goals too - sometimes it only sticks for a day or two, but at least I'm AIMING high, right? *adopts best 'career counsellor' face and nods wisely*<br /><br />I've got a fair few of these books floating around in my bookish peripheral vision so I'll be interested to see how they go! Also, can I just say that those knitted alphabet blocks are THE CUTEST THING EVER! :D Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07246472269477492583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-39596120299318146262013-05-10T22:55:34.003+01:002013-05-10T22:55:34.003+01:00LOL I knew there was a reason why I go by rebekah ...LOL I knew there was a reason why I go by rebekah at work (so nobody mistakes me for a porn film...)<br /><br />Anyway! Do it! That was my thinking too since benji is distracting in the day plus reading before bed is relaxing and stuff. Except when I read something that freaks me out and then have to read something nice to counteract it...<br />anarmchairbytheseahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14593618746095559894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3246380981479604275.post-84585899841557002242013-05-10T21:25:56.276+01:002013-05-10T21:25:56.276+01:00Bexxxxxx, (haha, that makes your name look like a ...Bexxxxxx, (haha, that makes your name look like a porn film...) <br /><br />Anyway! I think I'm going to do Bout of Books in a wholly non-pressurey but hopefully an encouragey of reading kind of way. I think it's going to be good :) I like your idea of going to bed earlier to read, too, I think I'm going to have to do that. Then even if it's the only reading I do, it's still reading, right? Right.<br /><br />I'm glad we had this discussion :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371636785566309578noreply@blogger.com
