-BookPics Is Curious- What's Happened To Me, To Us?

Wow, I suck. I haven't been posting as I would like to, I haven't been reviewing. AT ALL. I haven't been looking for galleys as I used to, I haven't been entering book giveaways, I haven't been visiting my favorite book blogs. I, simply put, haven't done anything on the blogosphere lately, better said, since last August. Sure I've been posting here and there but seriously, it wasn't something I completely put myself into, the only book review I last remember really wanting to write was the one for Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi because it completely blew my heart away. I was amazing and up until now I really need to find that place again, the one in which I couldn't stop stalking my favorite bloggers, the time I stalked my favorite authors whether they paid me attention or not, the time when book bloggers formed this community and everyone was nice with everyone and all the drama and ugly didn't happen. I want all that back, I want to blog a...

A Break!

As you can see my beautiful people, lately I haven't been posting much... But that's because I've be en swallowed whole by tons of RL things... Specially... House hunting! We started the long and tiresome process almost 3 months ago and now I can officially and finally say... WE ARE MOVING!!!! Those of you who know me know the why of me and my fam, moving... And well, for those of you who don't.. let's just say... We were kind of scared of continuing living there... Anyway... Since we got the house, the keys were given to us just this afternoon... That means, Packing! You see... packing, for me, is kind of fun because I get to gather things for charity and toys to donate... But when it comes to other stuff... Have in mind that I still live with my family... We ALL 5, have to start packing as soon as we can... I myself cannot wait to start living, sleeping, eating, READING, and well everything at thenew place but argh... if you could see just how much stuf...

Oh my cloud! Is it friday already?! I can't believe it! This week has flown by without my permission! This week has been an AMAZING one for me. I can't believe how many book blogs are out there! Guys!!! I'm so happy I'm not a hard person to convince or to talk-into something! Thank you Rachel!!! I wouldn't have taken part into Armchair BEA if not for you! Yet another thing added to things you've done for me. I've loved so much getting to stalk new blogs, taking a different route and checking out sites I didn't even know existed.  Reading new posts by people I didn't follow before was such a rush and such a fresh thing to do I felt all giddy and happy inside!! >.< But it's time to post what's designated for day 5 of the ABEA! I'll say goodbye later on...tomorrow maybe? lol ************************************* Asking the experts... Ask the visitors to your blog for blogging advice. What did you al...
