Hello, all!
So, I'm not sure how many of you actually read my blog anymore (and that's okay--I haven't been the best about posting anyway...) but in case you are still reading, I wanted to talk a bit about books and my summer reading plans. Every year since I started this blog, I've had some form of summer reading plan set up. But, this year, I'm pretty stumped. Usually, I can think of something clever and creative to read about, but right now, I have nothing. Zip. Nada. Zilch. So, I'm in a bit of a rut while I try to figure out what to read next.
So, if there is anyone still reading, I would really appreciate some suggestions for new books to read. I mean, not so much new books as a new book topic. Those of you who are my friends on Goodreads know just how many books I have on my to-read list! So, how can I parcel these titles out? Part of me is thinking that my summer reading theme should just be to read as much as I can off my Goodreads account, or from this little notebook I keep that has even more suggestions. But, I'm not entirely sure yet.
As for the rest of this post, I wanted to say that I'll be making a real effort to start posting book reviews on here again. I know most of my reviews have been on Goodreads, and that not all of you (if there are any of you) follow me on Goodreads. So, I'll be trying to post them here instead, so that you can keep up with the good, the bad, and the ugly of the books I've been reading.
Summer is almost here. I'm just struggling through one last class. The sad part is that the class isn't even that hard. I just have one paper left, and that's not even that hard. But, I've been working on this freakishly easy paper for over two weeks now, and I just can't write anything. My writer's block has been terrible. I almost want to cry. The saddest thing is that I've had ideas spouting out of my ears for every other writing assignment you could think of. I've been jotting down ideas for a novel I've been wanting to write, and even if I do say so myself, these ideas are pretty good! But, when it comes to writing for this stupid paper, I just sort of gape at it blankly, like a caveman who has just discovered television and can't figure out what to do about it. So, I'll be muddling through that over the next few days. It's due on Wednesday at noon, so I want to be done by tomorrow night. Wish me luck. Hope to write again soon.
