Since deciding to abandon a time frame for finishing my BBC Big Read challenge, I have, typically, rekindled my interest in getting through those last few books. At the library a couple of weeks ago, I checked out three from the remaining nine, and have finished one already, leaving just eight to go. (I’ve now crossed The Mayor of Casterbridge (Thomas Hardy) off the list. I enjoyed it, more than any other Hardy I’ve read, even though it was filled with typically melancholic Hardy moments.)
It’s amazing what removing a little pressure can do, right?
Ms Oh Waily feels the same way; she and I both lost our 1001 Books mojo in the second half of 2014, but a third pair of hands coming on board has given us both a renewed sense of reading purpose for 2015. That’s not to say we’d turn down any other reviews/reviewers…..hint, hint, HINT.
Once I get my life a little bit more organised, and start writing my own blog again, I might be able to be convinced to join in on the 1,001 book blog…
Well that would be fantastic!!! There’s no pressure to produce a certain number of reviews in a certain time frame now, so we will happily accept anything you have time to produce. Hope life settles soon for you – your brother’s bebe’s look gorgeous!
Yeah, they’re pretty darned cute 🙂 I hope it settles down too!
