It's mid of April already?!

Turns out it is... Ah well. To quickly sum up my March:  I finished three books: - Persepolis (Marjane Satrapi) - The beginning of the world in the middle of the night (Jen Campbell) - Vincent (Brabara Stok) All of them I read on the weekend away and all three of them were heartbreaking and beautiful and heartbreakingly beautiful. I also started reading my TBR-game book of the month, the Children's book. This one's also a beauty, but not so easy to read and rather slow-paced. And it's really long. At some point I decided I would rather listen to this one on audiobook, and I was a little disheartened when I saw that audible split the audiobook in 4 download parts. I have one hour left in the first part, and seven in each of the other three... so, you could say I've read about a quarter! ;) Now, for April! :)  so I actually cheated myself with reading Vincent in March as this one is actually part of my TBR-game. I hadn't decided how to deal with that when...

February Wrap, March Madness

And another month in 2018 has started! Can you believe we're already in March?... so first wrapping up February. I read two books in February. Overall, I am reading a little less this year than I usually do, and the reason for that is actually two things: podcasts and Dr Who! :) I usually read on my commute or listen to audiobooks but in the last weeks I fell in love with several podcasts and listened to those instead. And when at home, I really enjoyed falling down the rabbit hole of the Dr Who universe (finally, some of my friends would say.. ;) ). Still, some reading happened. I successfully read my TBR-challenge-read! I finished "Die Pyramide". It was a nice, classic crime story, with a grumpy policeman and ivery unsuspicious suspects, and some nice side-action in Kairo at the pyramids. It was not life-changing, but a quick read. I also reread one of my favorite books ever, for approximately the 20th time. The book is "Understood Betsy", a coming-of-ag...

Dewey's 24-Hour-Readathon, Part I

Bild
It really is happening! I am readathoning! :D We are already at the end of hour 3 now, and I am taking a short break from reading for this update on my readathon so far and the rest of my plans. so I had to go to a seminar from work today, which ended at 1PM, with the readathon starting for me at 2PM. I quickly bought my snacks, ate something and then got started with reading in order to really get into the mood! :) Yummy!!! :D I have now read a little over 200 pages from my first pick, and I love both the book and also the feeling of being in a readathon once again. I missed that feeling of having no other plans for the next 24 hours but reading, and making myself comfortable to be able to read more! :) Love the tea, love the snack, love the book! I did little to no preperations before (I didn't even make a real TBR pile) except for one thing: I prepared some bullet journaling pages in order to track my reading adventures. It's my first shot at anything in t...
