A Note:

6/2/13

I once told myself: IF I am accepted into grad school, this blog would no longer be updated. As it turns out, in April, I received news of my acceptance for the Fall 2013 semester, where I will attain a Master's degree of Science in Nutrition.

Running a blog, as many of you may already know, is a demanding side job once the excitement wears off. And once I fell out of the blogging community's loop (have you SEEN how many blogs there are now? Wow!), it was like the kiss of death. Despite my best efforts, I couldn't get into a blogging routine once this happened due to the disconnect I felt from the community.

So I took a break. I struggled with the loss and with missing my blog. And then I realized I didn't have to run Book Faery to still be a book reviewer; I could read my books and post reviews online. I'm still a book review blogger, just not in the traditional sense.

I'll still be online. You can chat with me on Twitter, where I'll be posting links to my reviews and talking books. I'll also be posting links to nutrition articles. And if you'd like to connect with me where I guarantee I will post reviews, just add me as a friend on Goodreads.

So that's all, folks! It's been a fun and amazing journey, and I thank you all for listening to my thoughts about books. I hope we all can keep in touch elsewhere :)

Once Upon a Read-a-thon Day 2

Once Upon A Read-A-Thon


Current thoughts about Day 1:
  1. I suck at staying on task sometimes.
  2. Read-a-thon's are a good way for me to get other tasks done.
  3. Stay away... my dad bought me pepper spray yesterday.  Yes that is random.  No I'm not going to erase it.

  • I Married a Dragon- Beverly Rae (55% completed)
  • Eve of Samhain- Lisa Sanchez
  • Bitter Frost- Kailin Gow

To Read:
  • Bitter Frost- Kailin Gow
  • The Phantom Diaries- Kailin Gow
  • Whisper of a Witch- Suza Kates

      I've learned that I'm not really good at staying on task either! Every hour and a half I take a break and end up spending another hour and a half on the computer!

      Haha yeah Twitter is the bane of my existence for this. On the bright side, I DID manage to write 2.3k words for the WIP because I didn't feel like reading LOL
