TSS: Back once again

Hello everybody!

OMG, it's been such a long time since I did a TSS post! Maybe I mentioned, maybe I didn't but I had a huge exam recently...long story short if you don't pass this exam you are not allowed to graduate from your PhD. I passed!!. You can only imagine how happy I am, how relieved and how relaxed I am right now. 

My reading life was not in a pause however, I was a good girl and kept on reading...ok, it had nothing to do with being a good girl, but mostly needing to do something different than studying every night. So I did finish 8 books since my last TSS post. 

However, as you may have noticed I did not post the reviews for the last 6 :S. But I'm catching up, yesterday I posted the reviews for Gone Girl, The Buddha in the Attic and Wool. Hopefully during this week I will be able to post the other 3; I'm lucky to have a long week-end all for myself and work on this.

Other than that everything is going fine. Weather is not very summery yet, but I will change my banner soon, just the window image. Maybe that will hint mother nature that is time to summer things up?

Anyway, have a wonderful week, and fingers crossed you will be able to drop by and actually find new stuff in the site. I'm a bit behind updating my lists of challenges and books reviewed, but I will get to it soon enough.

TSS: Catching up with summer!

Hello everyone, another Sunday that goes by and I'm writing my post later than usual. But it is for a good reason...you see, I spent my day next to the pool :). Lately I've been very busy, so I have no color, even though summer hs been around for a while now, so today, we took the day off. This week was a record for me, I finished 2 books! The Time Traveler's Wife, it was good...the movie...not so much. I like Rachel McAdams, but I didn't like the way they did the movie, I think is a book with so much subtleties that it wasn't doable to pass it to the screen. I have Her Fearful Simmetry,  and I will give a try soon, since I liked the style Niffenegger has. Also I finished Drop Dead Healthy. If you haven't read anything from A.J. Jacobs I strongly recommend trying it. Is just so entertaining. 

On the other hand my boyfriend just started reading Game of Thrones and I have never ever since him reading that fast. He is urging me to start reafding too, so we can finally start the series!
 
That's about it for today, I'm taking a bit of a break to just relax, since I'm well ahead in my reading challenge, but it will be just this week-end. I can't really go on without reading!


I hope you guys have an amazing week.
