The tribulations of a slow reader...

Ugh, it's frustrating when you want to start reading a book right now! right now! but you have about six books you're already currently reading and you don't want to start a new one before finishing at least one of them. But you really want to read it right now!! ;__; Please, it's calling to meee!!! We are in the future! Why can't we upload stuff ( Read more... )

I have the same problem with books! I've been wanting to start a new one for a long time now, but no, I need to finish another book first! We have to resist. XD

Those pictures are so cute! I love how you had some gifts ready for birthdays you didn't know about, lol. It's kind of impersonal, but it's smart!

I'm going to power through one of my books - I only have 1/4 of it left to read!

Yeah, it is, but i feel bad when a birthday gets celebrated and i have nothing to give them, so i wanted to be prepared that time. the personal touch was a necessary sacrifice haha :)

I love giving gifts too! I love it when I have a close friend's birthday coming up and when I find something that they love and all I can say is "I saw it and thought it was so you."

Oh, and that bouncer slide looks like epic amounts of fun.

The kids were definitely enjoying it - and a few adults!

I am with you on the books! I am currently reading Anna Karenina, rereading Game of Thrones series, and just picked up and started reading The Fault In Our Stars. I really need to learn to control myself, but my brain goes, "OMGBOOKSMUSTHAVE!!!"

I know, right? I can't be content with just reading one book at a time. I want ALL the stories~! But, i know i'm just going to overwhelm myself so i'm trying to keep that to a minimum. barely. haha
(yesterday i was watching youtube videos of people's top books in 2012, and basically everyone had the fault in our stars in it :D)

Lol I feel like that all the time too, especially when I'm in a bookstore XD.
Are you on goodreads?

There's too much temptation in a bookstore...
I'm not; i don't think i'd be good with one.
