I want to say that I'm sorry for not being the greatest blogger for the past few weeks. The past three weeks have been strange and a little confusing. I haven't only stopped reading but I couldn't bring myself to blog either. It was frustrating, horrible and worrying because I always said that if that day came I would quit. I knew, however, that I wasn't there yet though. My case wasn't that severe because during these past few weeks the mere thought of quitting made me emotional. It wasn't just blogging though. Apart from blogging my one other form of communication with you guys is twitter and I even slacked on that. If I've been distant or haven't been in touch as much - and I know I haven't with some of you - I promise to try harder.
This whole thing was confusing to me because during college when life was hectic I often chose blogging over things that should have been main priority, I made sacrifices and took many risks to fit in that one post at times, without regret, but now that holidays have started I can't even muster the energy to pick up a book or click on "new post" and it vexed me. Thankfully I was right. I knew I needed that one push, that one book that would get me into reading again. Today I found myself staring at a recent library book, devoured it, and sighed with relief. I'm not out the woods yet. I still find myself looking towards my bookshelf and then turning away, but I think within the next few days finally that feeling will start to weaken. It's tough not only being in a reading slump, but in a blogging slump also. I never imagined it would happen to me, but now that it has maybe if it were to occur in the future I can handle it bit better. Maybe if it happens to you I can give you a tip or two.
I wrote all this because whether you've noticed or not I felt you more than deserved an explanation. Being a blogger who gets anxious and frenetic when her posts are a day or two apart told me something just wasn't right when they started becoming a week apart. Too often some of my most well loved blogs, blog a month, or a week apart and I'm left wondering what is going on with them. Often not much of an explanation is given and sometimes the blogger never returns and I'm left saddened and confused. I didn't want that to happen with us; I didn't want to leave you hanging. Right now I can't promise a post every day, but I want you guys to at least know what's going on if I don't post for a few weeks, or a month from now which hopefully won't be the case. To avoid this from happening I've scheduled a few reviews. Expect a book review sometime today or tomorrow and a few more on the way. So yes I'm going through a little something right now, but I'm working on it :)
Cover Reveal - SHATTER ME BY TAHEREH MAFI
On another note what do you guys think of the Shatter Me cover? I don't do many of these, actually I don't think I have ever done one LOL, and I know this one is probably all over your dashboard, but I've read the book, ADORED it, and have been anticipating it ever since. I have to say I'm very disappointed. Not only does the model look a lot older than our MC, but she looks nothing like her. And although the dress holds relevance to the book it looks horrible on her. The whole cover just seems wrong to me. When you read the book this is not what you imagine the cover to look like. It's a shame, but if it's any consolation the book is amazing.
Oh and I have the new blogger. It's dreadful e_e. Sometime tell me I am not suffering alone. I don't like it at all. The layout of the dashboard is the worst, to the point where it feels like a battle within itself in just looking at it. It makes me want to not even go to it but I count on it a lot to keep up to date with blogs *sighs*
