Mini-Update:


I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump this past month. I’m finding it difficult to focus my mind on anything, not just reading, but it’s the area that’s suffered most. It’s slow progress at best! I usually average around ten to twelve books a month, depending on page count, and I’ve struggled to manage half that this April. I guess my eyes and brain have come to an understanding that I needed a break and they didn’t inform me!


On the Blog:


Just a little round up of some reviews and posts over the past two weeks.


Ratings: Consistency and Inconsistency

The Hunger Games set to Music... sort of.

Review: Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon

Review: The Maze Runner by James Dashner

Review: Nevermore by Kelly Creagh

And just before you go, if anyone is interested, here are a couple of links to giveaways on the blog. Both have free entry’s so you never know, you could be $20 Amazon credit or a paperback of Love, Lex richer! ** Here ends the annoying salesperson voice :D **


Have a great weekend, and happy reading!

  5. I loved Don't Look Back and I received Between the Lives this week, too. :) Hope you get out of your reading slump soon (I was in one for like 10 books- until I read The Prisoner of Night and Fog- So maybe try that one? ;) So good.) Happy reading! :)

  8. Nice haul, Alma. I hope you'll enjoy your new books. Reading-slumps are difficult sometimes, I hope you'll find the perfect book that will make you all passionate again. And if it takes a little while, that's OK, no?
    Have a fantastic week.

    1. Oh, definitely. Sometimes I think ya need a break, even if you don't realize you do, you know. Hopefully it doesn't last too much longer, I miss getting wrapped up and swept away by a good book! Thanks for stopping by Lexxie :)

  9. Nice haul! Between the Lives looks good, I have auto-approval but can't remember if I have downloaded it or not. Reading slumps can be a pain but they happen, especially to people who read a lot because you notice it a lot more. I hope it doesn't last too long. I've heard great things about Don't Look Back, looking forward to reading that one! I hope you enjoy all of your books :) My STS.

    1. So true. Thankfully I'm starting to get out of it a little bit now. The last two books I read I really liked, so that helps lots! Have a great week and thanks for stopping by!
