Friday Funday! What Are You Reading This Weekend?

Good morning fellow bookaholics! 

Happy Friday!

I only wish I had the whole weekend to read! I will be spending some of my free time reading though, of course. That's what bookaholics do, am I right?

I plan on finishing up an ARC of another cozy mystery that I have and then writing up some reviews for some books coming out this week.  I've been lucky enough to receive some really great books to review through NetGalley (thank you NetGalley for feeding my book addiction!!)  And just recently I've been asked by some authors to read and review some books, which for me is pretty exciting!

So, what are you planning on reading this weekend? I'd love to hear, so make sure you put them in the comments! Hope you all have a great weekend!

Reading Rampage!

So I got a new Kindle for Christmas! (Wooohooo!!) And to say that I have been reading a bit since I have received it would be a complete understatement! Mom and Dad couldn't have given me a better gift :) Check out the funky purple giraffe case!

So I have ended up reading 5 books in 4 days and have 2 more on the go. I've got a few books that I was approved to read for Netgalley as well that I am excited over!

I really love this Kindle, it's the Kindle Paperwhite and it's so easy to download books. Why did I wait so long before getting one? My Kobo Glo was great too but I find myself more attached to this Kindle. No this isn't any paid advertisement or anything, I am just gushing (too much!) over this Kindle! haha

So my plans for 2016? Attack my reading challenges with a renewed passion, advance my blog to the next level, and create a separate blog for some of my crafting.  I am also addicted to yarn crafts and get torn between the 2 hobbies.

I hope you all have a wonderful New Years, and hope you will be visiting my little reading nook many times over the next year!

Back on Track

So I "fell off the wagon" so to speak with my reading recently. I know that I am behind with my reading goal for the year which is driving me crazy. I had some health issues that just kept me from reading and concentrating on things that I wanted to do. Now it is June, and the beautiful weather has returned to us. I am hoping to be able to spend a lot of time outside enjoying the sunshine while reading some new and old favourites.

I recently finished reading a book by Josie Bell called 50% off Murder which I really enjoyed. It combined my love of cozy mysteries and couponing. (Yes I love to coupon and save money it totally gives me a rush and feeling of achievement) I need to do an update on my goodreads wall and bookshelves and get a review up for some of the books that I have finished with.

Bear with me please as I get things rolling again, and start on some new books. I have a stack ready to go!

Have a wonderful day!

A Giggle For Today..

Bookaholic's Unite!

I decided that for my own challenge on Goodreads that I will be attempting to read 100 books by the end of the year. That's a lot of books, but I am up for the challenge! Would it be wrong to just bring a blanket and curl up on the bench at the library and read all day long? lol
