Currently Reading Fail 2.12.15 // Emile

Hallo meine Freunden!

(Just testing how rusty my German is).

Here I am today with an another account of how much I am failing at reading at the moment. I had to put Carry On down because I wasn't getting anywhere and decided to pick up Days of Blood and Starlight because it's a sequel which should make it easier to get into. I also really enjoyed the first book and am looking forward to seeing where this goes. I want so much to get rid of this slump before Christmas because the holidays are the perfect time for reading! (Can I just say for a moment: OH MY GOLLY GOSH IT'S DECEMBER ALREADY. Seriously what happened to the other eleven months?)

I am excited for a chance to write some festive themed posts as this is the first Christmas of the An Infinite Bookshelf family. It is a momentous occasion, so look out for some of them coming soon.

I thought it would be nice to incorporate a little "life update" into currently reading posts. I thought you guys might like to hear about my life. Maybe? Either way it will be a new part of currently reading posts. I am really stressed at the moment because of end of term exams at school. Tomorrow night I am going with my friends on a school trip to see the musical Jesus Christ Superstar which I'm really looking forward to apart from the fact that I won't get home until around 11 pm and then I have a maths test and a piano exam the next day! I will be really happy to get the piano over with though. Any of you who do music exams will know how much you end up hating your pieces after playing them over and over again for months.

Guten Nacht alle,

So here is another currently reading fail.

I have hardly read anything since last week, this slump is serious. I am really hoping that this will be gone by Christmas because holidays are prime reading time. It's so frustrating wanting to read but not wanting to at the same time. *SIGHS*

Either way, right now I am currently reading Carry On by Rainbow Rowell, which was just released this October. It's not that it isn't good it's that I'm really stressed preparing for my piano exam and end of term tests at school, therefore I'm busy studying and practising leaving me little time to read. By the time I get to bed I just want to go to sleep.

The colours on the cover are lovely. If you would like to see some lovely pictures of books and laugh at my bookish shenanigans check out my instagram account:

There isn't really much else to say, so I shall end this post here.
Goodnight,

Bonjour mon amie!

Here is another weekly instalment of what I am reading. I hope you enjoy. I went on holiday recently (yes, holiday in November) and that gave me a chance to do quite a bit of reading. I read The Night Circus, Goose Girl, The Wrath and the Dawn and some of Let Sleeping Vets Lie by James Herriot. I finished that yesterday and now I am reading Carry On by Rainbow Rowell. So far I am really enjoying it. I am a big fan of Rainbow Rowell's writing.

I am in a sort of light reading slump at the moment and I am hoping that Carry On will get me out of hit. Hopefully. 

That's all from me today,

goodnight,
