Oh and Kayleigh-Marie, I can not read on the computer. It hurts my eyes and head. Even if it didn't I don't think I would. There's something about a book I love. I would miss them!
I do like reading books too. There's nothing better than curling up in bed with a good book :), so i think i will a bit of both.
Amber totally agree with u. LOL 6 books??? i'm still only on book 3. cnt wait until after thursday, i break up from uni 4 xmas holidays, 4 weeks so i can just read. i haven't had time 2 read a lot i'm still on catch up 4 my wrk coz i have missed the past 2 weeks. i wanna read VA and LS is still not here :(
I'm a stay at home mom, and I read every night when they go to bed. So that's why I read so much. I think last month I read about 15 books.
OMG i wish i had the time to read that much. i'm always just so busy with uni stuff but i've only got 4 days there n i'm off 4 4 weeks. i was off for 4 months for the summer and read over 50 books. i had 2 catch up lmao
I'm like Amber. A stay at home mom. so i get in as much reading as i can. which means alot of late night reading when the kids are a sleep or when my 4 yr. old can't sleep (deals with sleep apnea)and stays up till wee hours of the morning is when i get lots of books read. I've lost count how many books i've read in just one month alone.
I usually don't keep count but I did this challenge last month on goodreads, so that is how I knew. I read anytime I have down time. Usually weekends are the hardest for me since my 2 older ones are home and can stay up later. I read most during the week.
15 Books? Wow! I wish i could read that many. I'm on maternity leave at the moment as my little one is 2 months old but only manage to read about 4/5 books a month at the mo! :(
My youngest just turned 2. I remember when I was breastfeeding I would have her in one arm and a book in another. haha. I was bored I needed something to do. I really do read about 3-4 books a month on average. But I have good ones and bad ones.
Lol thats what its like for me! Trying to feed her with one hand and trying to read in the other! Doesn't work half the time tho! Have to wait until she's playing or sleeping! Motherhood ay! :)
:(wish i could read that much. i'm sick of doin uni wrk but just found out i may have 6 weeks off 4 xmas instead of the normal 4. none of our lessons start until feb so we just have 2 go in n hand in our assignments :)
What you studying at uni? Least you've got all that time off from uni, to catch up on your reading. :)
Psychology. its reli good. yea i have time off but i still gotta do essayd n stuff so am hoping to get them down early so i can catch up on all my reading, am really excited coz va last sacrifice got delivered 2day. cnt wait 2 read it, its gonna b sooooooo good.

i'm gonna try and read more now coz i'm off for holidays now so dnt reli have 2 do anything :)
Mod
YEY me neither.i have not finished 4/9
shouldn't take me long to read book 5 coz its last sacrifice and i am just addicted to VA so cnt wait to finish the series.
Mod
LOL i still dnt think i'll do it all. i'm like halfway thru book 5 but i have so much to sort out 4 xmas so i'll just c how far i get. i'll probably b able 2 do it nxt time :)
9/9Finished!! I had to change it up a bit. I get my books from the library and I am still on a waiting list for some I had on here originally. Like Raised by Wolves, thought I was going to have it by now. But whoever has it checked out must have renewed it again. Hope that is okay!!!
Oh and 1 more book and I will have read 200 total. And 145 for this year!! :)
