verschreibselAs some of you know my New Year's resolution is reading 50 books in one year. If you are a math genius like me (feel the sarcasm) you know that that's 3-4 books a month. I have 7 books now.
If I count a short story. I'm currently reading the fourth Narnia book and Confessions of a Shopaholic. This month is nearly over and I haven't finished a single book. Fanfiction, Online Orginal Fiction and Mangas don't count sadly. I'm one of those people who make life harder than it could be for themselves.
Here's my problem:
1. I keep finding good Orginal (Slash) Fiction on fictionpress
2. I just ordered 3 Mangas and read them and I'm planning on buying all the new Detectiv Conan ones and the last of When A Man Loves A Man
3. I start watching random Animes like Shugo Chara because of recs. Or start reading random Mangas like Hetalia. Ahrgh.
If you want to know what stories I like you can look at my Favourites on fictionpress on my profile
I didn't add all the storys I read and liked but I'm trying to. It's all Slash/Shonen-Ai/Yaoi whatever you want to call it. You could also check out AmarettoSour or![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
maderr as the author is called here on livejournal. I love nearly everything she writes.
See my problem? Well I'm not asking for help or book recs. I have enough ebooks and real books I need to read. Maybe something to help me concentrate or keep me motivated? I always think I haven't got enough books and haven't read enough that's why I made the resoultion. Like I said I have already some books as ebook like the Gemma Doyle Triology . I've read the first one of that. And the first one of the Uglies series. I'm now trying to find some Meg Cabot ebooks (help?) other than the Princess Diaries and All American Girl. They are easy reads and I can probably read one in 1-2 days.
So how can you help?
Well you could recommend your favourite Orginal Slash Fiction. It won't help with my resoultion but Slash makes me feel good and I forget all about my resolution. Which is both good and bad. Or just tell me about how you're failing at your resoultion so that we can comfort each other. Or tell me that I'll make up for lost time in the summer holiday when I'll read 10+ books. I don't think many people will comment since my f-list seems to love three things: cookies, secrets and funny memes. Or all in one. XD No offense
