And yes, that means you. Because you ARE amazing!
And yes, Bhramori, I made that one! (Oh yeah, guys, this is Amy! Little late on that one.)
Anyway, I wasted a bunch of time on that picture, so let’s get a-talking. So, you may be wondering why I mentioned rereads. And hot cocoa. Oh, did I not say the hot cocoa? Well, there’s that too! Basically, I’ve been off and on a reading slump. Occasionally, I get excited about a book and power through it, but then I can’t get into anything else and ignore my stack until I have to take them back. Sooo… You know me, I’m a problem solver! And what do we get?
Sing it to the tune of “Elmo’s World!” That’s it! Ahem. I think I left my dignity in the other room….
The General Idea:
- I will reread favorite books all week (and possibly beyond that)
- There will be hot cocoa
- Throne of Glass will be involved
- Wait, go back to the hot cocoa!
- There will be hot cocoa; every day I will post a recipe for some kind of yummy sweet treat to eat while enjoying those fuzzy warm rereads!
- This starts Saturday, November 7th, and does not have a definite end date yet!
- You are absolutely welcome to join in with the treats when you can!
If any of you have ideas for treats, I’m most certainly open to options! 🙂 I have a few in mind, so we shall see…
I had best be going soon, but I am reading The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas! It is good so far; I’m sure I will have more to tell later on in the week.
Have you read The Assassin’s Blade? Are you planning to? What are you reading? Are you going to join me in rereading old favorites? Eating yummy treats? Do you have any treat/book ideas for me? Do you just want to say hello? Don’t be shy! Press reply! That should be my campaign slogan…
Alright guys, goodnight (or day or morning or whatever) and happy reading!

What genre are you preferably gonna read?
And Amy, you’re definitely getting better at those graphics. Just like I predicted. 😉

Hmmm… Hadn’t thought about the specific genre yet. I think I’m going to roam around a bit. The two I have in mind at the moment are Throne of Glass and Cinder, and maybe a book by an author who’s name I cannot remember right now but who’s books I can picture perfectly haha.
Well, thank you!

Well, you’d get better suggestions if you mentioned the genre, I think. Usually when I’m rereading, my commonest choices are classics or favourite series. Speaking of which, have you finally read a classic yet?? (Please tell me you did…)

True, I jump around a lot too. And that’s the whole point, isn’t it? You’re reading for comfort, you’re free to choose whatever appeals most. I remember once I reread Frankenstein, and followed it with Anne of Green Gables!! XD XD Can you imagine?!

😀 It was… but it was oddly comforting, too. There’s something very soothing about getting lost in the pages of a familiar book, you know — like embracing a close friend. And for me, whose bedtime stories revolved around ghosts and zombies, horror is a genre that I always welcome like long-lost family, as strange as that sounds.

Yesss!! You must read To Kill A Mockingbird, though I’d suggest you try it out only after you’ve got a hang of reading classes, otherwise the language might bore you so much that you may lose interest in the story itself. Same with Mark Twain. I think you should start out with Jane Austen. How about Pride and Prejudice? 😀
