Showcase Sunday #2

Showcase Sunday is a weekly meme hosted by Books, Biscuits, and Tea!

Books, Biscuits, and Tea just started this meme last week, and I'm very excited to be participating!

Unfortunately, my bookshelf is seriously filled to the point of BURSTING, so I haven't acquired any new books, physical or e-books. I'm also on a slight book-buying ban until I can get my finances in order. Or until I see a book that I just have to have!

This past week, I've continued to struggle with reading Pure by Julianna Baggott. It's not that I don't like it, when I can find the time and sit down with it, I breeze through chapters, but lately it's just not happening. :(
For this reason, I'm also glad I haven't gotten any new books because I am so behind on all the books I got in the past few weeks. Instead of looking at my bookshelf and being happy it's filled with amazing books, it's becoming stressful to see how much has piled up and how little time I've dedicated to reading. (I still blame this on working full time, so maybe after a couple more weeks, I can figure out how to fit reading back into my schedule.)

Until next week, happy reading!

  1. I need to be on a book buying ban as well! I have WAY to many right now. Reading is definitely hard to fit into a schedule when you're so busy. I was on a no-reading kick for a week and I just jumped back on (thanks to Sweet Evil). I'm sorry Pure is slowing down, hopefully it will pick back up. I have heard some good things about it. Happy Reading :)

    1. The only frustrating thing about being on a book buying ban is that all the books I really want that come out soon or are coming out now just add up on a bookmark list on my laptop. But I think my bookshelf is also happy, because I won't be putting anything on it for a while, haha.

      Looking forward to seeing your Sweet Evil review!!

    1. Any time I notice myself going to amazon.com or driving by my local bookstore, I have to make myself leave... haha. It's a will power I haven't perfected yet. It's so hard not to want all the new releases... They're so pretty!!!

      Thanks for stopping by!
