Keely’s Comments (group member since Aug 30, 2013)

Keely’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

So, I've been part of this group for a while, but have only recently started actively taking part in challenges and haven't properly introduced myself yet so I figured I should do that.

I'm Keely and I am from the UK and I recently became a quarter of a century years old. :P

Birthday: 19th December
Favourite Book(s): I don't really have favourites
Favourite Book Genre: I can and will read any genre. I do enjoy Young Adult books and I read a lot of Manga.
Favourite Author: Again, I don't really have a favourite, I will give any author a chance
Favourite Color: Purple
Favourite Food: This is a tough one. I do love a good steak and a homemade bolognase usually goes down a treat
Any Pets: A cat who is currently 15 years old and can be a bit grumpy, but she shows affection to me and spends time with me, so I can let the grumpiness slide
If I could live anywhere in the world it would be: If I was going to move away from the UK, I would live in Norway because that is where my boyfriend lives.
Finish the line: I know I'm a book addict because I want to read way more books than I ever will manage, but I will give it my best shot anyway.

Haha, thanks. I'm looking forward to Christmas Day and then Friday which will be my first real day off where I can properly relax.

I started a new job a few days ago and they want me to work tomorrow (Christmas eve) for a few hours, but the real killer is on the 26th they want me to be there fore 5:30am to get ready for the sales as the store opens at 6am apparently. It takes me about 15-20 mins to drive there so I'm going to be waking up about 4:30am.... At least I get Christmas day off :P

I would like to join in for this year. My average books yearly is about 250, but I am hoping to read more this year.

I would be happy to join in with Little Women! I would prefer to start in January or at least towards the end of this month as I already have a couple of books I want to finish before the year ends. :)

- 341 pages

Current Total: 1,557,625

I generally give books 3 or 4 stars. Only books I really enjoyed reading get 5 stars and then books that I felt were okay but I didn't particularly enjoy and would not read again recieve 2 stars. I really have to hate a book to give it 1 star.

On a different note, I am still crossing off books on my list. I just finished my 25th book off the TBR list for this year which was The Diary of a Young Girl. Which makes 5 books above my target. I should hopefully finish 2 more before the year ends. :D

- 261 pages

I would so join in with that. I've had Les Mis on Kindle for years (as long as I've had my Kindle) and always think 'maybe next year I'll get around to reading it'. I've always been afraid to join BR's because I read several books at the same time, so I end up taking longer to finish a single book, but if the duration of reading Les Mis is a year then that should definately be doable.

I'm kinda excited now :P

Yeah, I figured next years post would be done at some point in December too. But thank you for doing it so soon! :)

I'm so happy to be doing this challenge again this year as it helps motivate me to read books on my TBR list.

This year I have decided to focus mostly on books that are part of a series. Some will be part of series that I have started, but not yet finished. As some of the books are fairly short and I beat my target of 20 books last year, I am going to aim for at least 25 books. Most of the books have been on my TBR list since 2012 or 2013 so it will help clean up some of my earlier added books.

I just finished my 20th book which also means I completed my challenge. But I am not finished yet. I should be able to finish a few more before the end of the year.
My 20th book was Fifty Shades of Grey which I know has very mixed opinions and from what I have read, verge more on the negative. However, I somewhat enjoyed it. It wasn't the best literature I have ever read, but I did mostly enjoy it and that is the main thing. I plan to read the next two next year for this challenge (they've been on my TBR list for years).
