I've just begun to start reading again after a long hiatus (mostly due to personal pressure on myself to read too much in too short a period of time). This is significant for me, though it tends to happen every autumn.
This is a new blog because I thought that a fresh start and a fresh perspective might work well to help keep me motivated.
My goal is to read as much as I want and to review everything that I read, regardless of whether or not I'm able to finish it (provided I've read enough to give an opinion on the book).
Mondays are a good benchmark, but they are also the day that Book Date hosts "It's Monday: What are you reading?"
I've made my own graphic because I like to have Pinterest-friendly graphics on my blog. The official banner is on the right (it links to the meme for this week on Book Date, if you're interested).
If you're a book blog, you might want to participate, so stop on by and leave your link, along with what you're reading this week! I'll be happy to hear from you in my comments as well.
As for me, this week I'm reading It for the third time.
This classic horror novel is a favorite of mine, and it seems timely given that Halloween is just around the corner. I'm taking it slow and reading for pleasure rather than to race to the end so I can review the book. Who needs another review of a Stephen King novel, anyway?
(Late) last week I finished reading The Last Reading, which was a nice, short little cozy mystery by Gillian Larkin. The review will be posting tomorrow (scheduled), so you can look forward to it then (I'll link it here once the review has actually posted). I would recommend this book, but encourage readers to understand that the book claims to be the first in a series but starts from a point it continues from another series. It's a little bit confusing, but the book itself was enjoyable.
I'm not expecting to finish It this week, so I don't project any other books for this one.
