January 2016


Long time, no see. January was spent among textbooks and notes. Revision took over my life and I had no time for anything else. I’ve done three exams but I still have two more to do and 10 days before being completely free but I’m gonna try and be more present on the blog; not only on mine but in everyone else’s as well. I miss it.

Anyways, my reading suffered in January and I got to 4 books, and another 2 were DNFs. One of my resolutions for this year is to stop reading a book if I’m not getting anything out of it. My bookshelves are filled with so many unread books and I don’t have the time to waste in “bad books”. I know, I know…. The “what if it gets better” question will always be there but let’s be real, if you’re halfway through a book and there is nothing there for you to enjoy, chances are the book is not gonna get any better. And it’s time to accept it and move on. Or at least, that’s what I’m trying to do.


I cannot wait for exams to be over so I can have all the free time in the world. How did January treat you?

The Gif Tag!

Jess over at My Reading Dress – seriously, go follow her! – tagged me a while ago to do the Gif Tag and I haven’t been able to post it earlier because I have no clue about technology and I couldn’t make the gifs work so I had to investigate a bit. Also, I haven’t read most of the books of the list. I really hope this works out alright so without further ado, let’s get started! Oh, I might have used more than one gif for some of the books...
