What's On My Kindle?

I've had my Kindle for about 7 months now. My Mum bought me it for my 21st birthday as a part of my present and I absolutely love it. I was never sure as to whether I wanted one or not because I'm a huge book lover and going round charity shops and book fairs has always been a hobby of mine. But I have no regrets! I am so in love with this little machine now and I have read so much more than I used to.

I keep mine in this pink 'leather' case which I bought from eBay - LINK - I couldn't find the exact one again but that is pretty much the same one, for the same price.

At first I kept it in a silicone skin inside a sleeve but the case is so much more protective. I don't know why I still keep the silicone skin on but for some reason I do. It actually keeps it more secure within the case anyway so win-win. 

I tend to keep a collection on my Kindle for books I've recently read. I like to keep my goodreads account up to date but sometimes I forget to for a while. Keeping this collection helps me to go back and check I've put everything in. 

I've read both these triologies within about two weeks - woops! They were both really good and super addictive reads. I can definitely see the obsession with both!

I have about 70 books stored on here ready to read. As you can see below, these are the next few I'm set to read. A mixture of old and new with the odd classic thrown in there. 

I'm constantly looking for new and interesting reads and going on book hunts is an old favourite of mine. My boyfriend doesn't enjoy it so much though!

Add me on Goodreads if you're on there - LINK

I'd love to hear any book recommendations you could give me down below :) 

Also, if anybody knows of any online book clubs, let me know! Now I've finished uni I have so much more time for reading and would love to get involved with a few clubs.

Life!

So once again life has gotten in the way of my blog. I always knew this would happen, but never expected it to be so bad. It's been far too long since I posted anything, which is annoying as I actually have a few things to talk about! 


On October 30th I turned 21! Hence my absence. Because I have family and friends both where I live (Hull) and in my home town (Grimsby), I spent the best part of a week and a half travelling and doing various things all over the place for my birthday. 


I was well and truly spoilt for my birthday - if I do say so myself! The weekend before my birthday my family in Grimsby took me for a lovely meal three times whilst I was with them. Then during the week leading up to it, as well as fitting in university and work, I attended a Scroobius Pip gig (which was awesome) and a Jessie J gig (also awesome) with my boyfriend. I then had two nights out with my friends, went for another two meals and eventually(!) got some rest at the beginning of last week. 


Now that's all over and it's back to reality, I have a monstrous amount of university work to be getting on with. It actually exhausts me just thinking about it - over 10,000 words overall are due in before the end of this semester. Although this is spread out in various assignments, and doesn't really sound that much if I'm honest, it's actually going to be really tiresome having to chop and change what I'm thinking about constantly! 


The joys of student life hey? 


Hopefully as the Christmas holidays draw nearer I will be able to properly start blogging again. I would love to get more posts up and really get the ball rolling with it. I love writing about things, looking at all the new products coming out as well as discovering new blogs. I can't wait to finally have time for all these things. 


I hope you guys aren't having to put up with the stresses of university life right now! And if you are, good luck and I'll see you on the other side! 


If you have a blog that I might not already follow, I'd love to check it out! Leave a link below for me :)
