October 2015 Challenge

My Own Spooky Challenge:


I've decided that for the whole month of October I will challenge myself to read spooky, scary, creepy or downright gory collections (Poems, Short Stories, or Novels) every day. At the end of the month, I will write a review of my favorites and least favorites overall. I thought this would be a good way to get into the Halloween spirit.

A preview of some of the books I might be reading.

#Cramathon 2015 (December 19th-December 22nd) Cramathon was hosted by Whittynovels on Youtube. It was created to read as many books as possible to finish your Goodreads challenge for the year. I wasn't originally going to participate being I would be very busy the first day that the Cramathon took place. I also didn't really need the help with my reading challenge. I only had three books left to read to meet my goal for the year, but I decided I wasn't going to give up an opportunity to get some of the books on my TBR (To Be Read) read.  Challenges: Read an audiobook or ebook Read a bind up Finish a series/read the last book of a series Read a book under 200 pages Finish a book you DNF’ed Read a graphic novel series (or as many graphic novels as you can) Read 5 books total Day 1:  I didn't read anything the first day. I was too busy. Day 2:  Read a book under 200 pages:  The Twits by Roald Dahl:  ★★★★ I love

The Sad Truth I'm taking myself away from blogging for a while. For a long time, especially in the past month, I've lost all my motivation for reading. I can't seem to pick up and finish a novel. This whole year has been terrible for me. I've had to force myself to read and while I have had small bursts of great reading time I can't seem to shake this pressured feeling to have to read. It's not fun. I don't want to keep up this charade. So I regret to inform that I'm taking a step back from this blog. I want to find my spark (no matter how cliche). I want to find the reason I started this blog. I barely post on here as it is and I think that's part of the problem. It's a never-ending cycle of feeling guilty that I haven't posted so I force myself to read/post and then that in turn makes me not want to post/read less. I may post once in a while on my Twitter and Instagram so follow me there if you want updates. I don't know when I
