Book Blogger Confessions

1-6Book Blogger Confessions is a meme 
hosted by For What It's Worth Tiger's All Consuming Media that posts the 1st and 3rd Monday of every month, where book bloggers "confess" and vent about topics that are unique to us. Feel free to share, vent and offer solutions. Just keep it respectful - no bashing authors or other bloggers! 
This week's question is: 
Choosing your next book. How do you decide which book to read next? How do you balance 
“review” reading with “fun” reading?


I like to think of myself as an As The Soul Leads Reader—ever since I saw that phrase I was all, “OMG! THAT’S SO ME!” (So, thank you to the person who originally used it! I can’t remember who you are! Sorry! I love you!) I kinda just go with what my heart desires when it comes to picking my next read! I’m like “*GASP* I gotta read THIS book next!” And if I try to read anything else besides that book...it doesn’t go well. Crazy, I know, but true.

I am HORRIBLE at balancing “review” books with “fun” books. I usually let my review books accumulate so I’m...tied up reading those for a couple weeks. I’m actually going through this problem right now. WAAAAH! And I love the review books, I really do!! But I wanna read the ones I bought a couple weeks ago!! LIKE SO BAD!! I have GOT to get better at that!

So, how do YOU decide what you’ll read next? Eenie meenie? Draw out of a hat? Lemme know in the comments!

  1. The problem with review books is that they sound awesome at the time but usually you put them off closer to release date and by then your excited for something else. That's what happens to me anyway.
    I'm just not really accepting any review books anymore. Problem solved! lol
