Yellow Flicker Beat - Lorde

I've been becoming more and more addictive to booktube over the last couple of weeks. What began as a mere interest to see other people talk about books is slowly changing into an obsession. Once thing which really awes me is the various types of bookshelves and the various way the books are arranged.

How do you arrange your books? Authors' last names, rainbow colored, or genre-wise? Or something different?

Best of luck! Just go ahead with it, and make it as good as possible, and don't hesitate to create anything which you want to. There's no one to judge :)) And once you're done, come and share it with us!

Thanks for sharing your blogs everyone!

I don;t think there is any particular side-effect of reading e-books. Some may raise the issue of damage to eyes, but damage occurs only when you over-use ebooks. And that's kind of fits everything - too much of anything damages. So of course if you read too much ebooks, eyes will be damaged but if you can keep it under control, there's utterly no problem. Also, even reading too much of small print in physical books causes eye damage - that's how I got my glasses.

Apart from the eye-issue, there's no side-effect to reading ebooks. It's actually way more easy to carry, you can read it in any light, you can make notes, highlight, change font, bookmark etc. But then reading ebooks isn't much of an option for people who are addicted to collecting books, is it?

There's no time limit. The dates are just for starting the series.

Sangar wrote: "Could someone please tell me what exactly is Buddy Read?"

It's basically an activity in which two people read a book/s together. Most groups perform this activity in a different way. However, here, each sign-up is randomly paired up with another sign-up and they both decide on a book/s to read and discuss together.

I would like to sign up.

Thanks"

Yes you are paired up and then both of you mutually decide on a book/s to read and discuss. You can read inside or beyond your comfort zones, it's up to you :)
