Blog news

The blog is working on its 3rd year of being online and writing about the books I've read so far. I'm still working on reading new book and authors. Some books have been great reads and worth my time in reading. I've finally hit my first goal of 100 books read. Now its going on as 1 book at a time now and maybe hitting the goal of 200 books read. It might take me awhile to get there with the way I've been reading lately.

I want to add that I'm quite happy with all the views and the followers I've gotten on here. I hope it keep coming on both. My views are almost to 5000 now and that brings a huge smile to my face.

I've only been blogging after I finish a book now. Sometimes it can take me awhile to read one if the book is really long. I'm trying to at least add a few new books a month on there to keep people coming to see what's been added. I'm hoping to continue to read for years and keep my blog running tell I can't read any more. I think that would come about when I'm to old to see to read or just can't concentrate any more.

I'll keep this page open to inform my readers of any changes or anything important that's going on in my life that would interfere with my blog here.

The new year is on the way and I've decided to change my background. I think it was time for a change for the coming new year. Hope everyone likes candlelight.
Still looking for new followers and looks like I got a few new ones over the holiday break. Time to get back to reading, just enjoying a good book and relaxing.

I've decided that I'm going to try for 100k page views and by the time I get there it will probably be my last book I'll add to my blog then. I know I have a long ways to go being I just hit 5400 today. Nothing is planning on changing thou. I will still be reading books tell I get there.

Well, I've finally decided to get myself an ereader. I'm only going to try free ebooks right now on there. But, I'm still going to read regular books to add onto my book blog. The ebooks will be just something to try and see how I like the format. Plus, it will give me a chance to try authors that are different then what I usually read.

Feb. 1, 2013

Well, I've decided to add the Ebooks I'm going to be reading onto my book blog. With some help from a few people saying that it shouldn't make any difference if thier free books or not. I'll still be reading books and putting them up on my blog and to give my readers new authors to want to try and see for themselves. I'll make sure that my readers know that the books that I read are either Ebooks or just regular novels by adding ebook to the title page for everyone to see.

Thank you to the person that had added me to win an award. Sorry, but I just don't do those and add them to my blog. I do like the views I get and I enjoy all the comments that people leave for me. I appreciate it.
Now onto something else. I don't review peoples books that they have written unless you are where I can find you. Thanks for asking. I'm not trying to be rude but, I don't want to change to much about my blog right now. I did this blog as my own reading list and to share what I've read. I hope that people will understand and stay with me as a follower.

My reading has been slowing down a little bit. The next book shall be added soon.

Hello everyone,
I have been really busy with doing school work which, I just started going to school last month. I have a few books that will be added to my blog. But I want you all to know that I will be taking a little time off from my enjoyment of reading fiction books to do some studying. I will get back to reading fiction when I think that I can do both and not have any problems with my school work.
I think that my schooling is a little more important right now then my fiction reading. I will be adding books when I do get back to reading. Please, hang in there and keep a watch on here when I post more things about what is going on with my blog.

Well, I've been picking up books pretty cheaply. Some of the books are older and a few are from authors I haven't read before. I've decided to try and get my blog up to 200 books. I hope that all my blog readers will stay with me here and see what books I'm going to be adding next.

It has been years since I've posted on my blog. I'm thinking about starting back at posting about books I've been reading again. I'm also thinking about using my book blog here to start something new, like, post a book review on youtube. I will be starting with books I've already read and going from there. So, if you really want to here about a book I've posted on here so far, come and check out those post. It shall be only once a week and being that I'm a slow reader, I'm hoping to be starting out with a few posts. I also know that I've got some catching up on somethings I've starting reading, like certain series. I'm going to have to take one book at a time. We shall see how it goes. 

March 28, 2021

Update since the last time I posted on this page. I have chickened out on doing Youtube. Sorry, your just going to have to deal with what I post on the blog. I'm still picking my own books and I only buy books from two places, Barnes and Noble and half price books. A little truth, I do not reread books usually. I may pick up a couple that I have loved over the years and don't remember what their about. I'm also working on going back through my list of series that I need to finish. So if you've noticed that some of the books are part of those then, I have continued with them. I still plan on also, to keep adding new authors. You can leave me a comment on any of my posts telling me if you've tried any of the books on here. I'd love to hear from you on what your thoughts are on any of the books. I'd like to thank those that have checked out my blog and read any of the posts. I'm also slowly working on getting my number of books read to 200 books. That's going to be my next goal for this blog, for now.

I think I like it that way .Each book I always buy myself. I choose what book to read from a stack of books I have. And, I'll add, there is a huge stack. I shall be picking one from it. I hope you will continue to check out what's new. Enjoy your reading and I hope you might like one of the books I've posted and read on here.

    I signed to follow your blog. I'd be glad if you could honor mine, too.
    I live in Romania, better known as Dracula's country. I am a teacher of English and German in my own town and country.

    Would you, please, be so kind to accept reading and reviewing my paranormal romance Shadows of the Past?
    My novel was released on 4th December as an e-book by Wild Child Publishing, USA. If the answer is affirmative I can send you a PDF provided by the publisher. It's not erotica, as all romance I write I keep at the sweet level. I have a feeling you will enjoy the story.
    Summary ~from Goodreads~

    When Anne and Neil leave on a one-week holiday hoping to reconcile after a two-year separation, little do they know that destiny has other plans for them. Their discovery of human bones and a bejeweled cross in the hollow of a tree open the door to the supernatural realm and the anguished life of Genevieve, a nun from medieval England.

    Can Anne save her relationship and help Genevieve her eternal rest?

    The twists and turns in this paranormal tale keep the reader guessing up to the end and weave themselves together into a quest to rekindle love.

    Award winning author Paulette Mahurin says in the review she wrote for Shadows of the past," Carmen Stefanescu’s Shadows of the Past was a great read that I enjoyed from the first page through the last sentence, that I was sorry to see end.... an excellently crafted work, by an author who clearly knows how to write, who understands literature, and knows how to tell a compellingly great story....
