TTT: Top Books I’ve Read So Far This Year

I've only really done half of what I'm supposed to be reading. A sampling of 27 books which include graphic novels doesn't seem much in the general view of things. Anyway, If I had to pick the "Top Ten Books I've Read So Far This Year," these would be it. First Test (Protector of the [...]

25 Reads: The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

March 14, 2014March 14, 2014by Mari7 Comments on 25 Reads: The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

I try to read the books before I end up watching the inspired films or TV shows (or games) that get released. Sometimes this doesn't happen, and in the case of The Book Thief, I did the opposite; I watched the movie, and proceeded to get a hold of the book. Maybe this was a good [...]

25 Reads: The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi

February 12, 2014February 12, 2014by Mari3 Comments on 25 Reads: The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi

Goodreads is currently telling me I'm on track. So far so good. But that probably won't last long, not without a more dedicated interference. Last year, I didn't even finish my 70-something reading goal (which is sad, considering I did do quite a bit the two years before), and that was when I ended up "cheating" [...]

Mari

Mari-with-an-I prefers her fantasies drenched in oil and fried up in faerie, but when that’s not the case, she’ll read it anyway. She likes writing what she reads, and likes baking while she writes. She’s written a few things for anthologies, including an anthology that got translated into Czech (I know, right?! Eeeeee!), and if you haven’t read them yet, she urges you to do so! Who knows, there might be a few cookies waiting for you at the end of the read.

…Or not. (Blast her pet steampoctopus for eating them all!)

Reading Ratings (in Cookies)

5 cookies = Book was so deliciously awesome that I couldn't put it down or get it out of my mind for a while.

4 cookies = Book was great and certainly worth the read.

3 cookies = Book was good but I expected better.

2 cookies = Meh.

1 cookie = Why did I even bother?!

Improvised shrimp pasta salad a success!
I'm finding myself with an actual weekend where I have little work to do...so the goal is to finish one (or two or all...) of the books on my TBR! #bookstagram #booknerd #books #bookish #readingisfun
