I've decided to change some things on this blog. When I started this blog, I thought it would be great to comment on every book I read and have this huge book blog project going along with it. I planned to write, write, write about books.
Because I read a lot, and I mean a lot of books, I did not take into account how much time I would need to actually blog intelligently about them. I've been reading a lot of book blogs and seeing what's out there made me hungry to contribute to the book blog community, but I also wanted to do my own thing and not copy other people's ideas of book blogs.
Commenting about every book I read got tedious and I found I just didn't have time to keep up. So that's why the blog has been lagging the last couple of months.
I decided to take some time and think about whether I wanted to keep this blog or not.
I want to keep this blog going but will be changing it up a bit.
I am not planning on blogging or listing every book I read. You can go to my GoodReads page and friend me if you want to keep up with that information.
I am hoping to sit down and blog more in depth about books I particularly like or subjects on reading, books and blogging.
Change can be excellent!

What I've Read So Far This Summer
The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest: Book 3 of the Millennium Trilogy (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard)
: I finally got to read the final in this trilogy. I loved the first two books but this one seemed a bit slower to me. Elisabeth spent most of the book in the hospital and since she's the most interesting character in the series, I have to say it was a bit more boring. But I did enjoy the series very much. I don't read a lot of mystery/thrillers so it was a nice change.
The Horse Whisperer : This was a reread for me. I forgot most of the story, so it was nice to revisit.
The Shell Seekers : I love Rosamunde Pilcher. This was a reread. I love this book!
The Royals : Ah, Kitty Kelly! Ah, the British Royal Family. Will the fascination with this family ever end? Never!
Wings of a Dove (Love Spell) : Ah, simple romance books! A great beach read!
Middlesex: A Novel : A pulitzer prize winner. An amazing novel about a hermaphrodite who documents her family's journey from Greece to Detroit and her trials growing up as a girl and finally making the decision to be male. The writing is amazing.
