I'm taking a break from blogging. Its probably just the winter blahs, but I'm finding my enjoyment of books lessening because every time I read one I think, "How should I blog this?" I'm tired of that being at the forefront of my mind. I want to read for enjoyment, without the thought of blogging about the reading experience entering my head. I can't give you any idea when I'll be back, because right now I don't know.
I'm still going to comment on the blogs I read on a regular basis. I don't want to lose contact with anyone, but posting on my own blog is just a mental chore right now.
Feel free to contact me via email with any book questions or if you need help finding books to read in a certain subject: mouseprints at hotmail dot com. I'm always up for that.
Happy reading, friends!
I hear you!!
ReplyDeleteYep. I get it. Enjoy reading without responsibility hanging over your head.
ReplyDeleteThat does make it a pain. Get back to enjoying reading!
ReplyDeleteAs the empty state of my blog attests, I'm not nearly as responsible to my computer. But if I were, I'd be stressed and unhappy. Do what you need to do -- and if a book makes you excited to talk about it, don't feel like you have to wait for a special occasion to blog more. I'm always interested in what you say, even if you don't say it regularly :-)
ReplyDeleteI just read Palace of Stone (sequel to Princess Academy) and thought of your blog with its girl book emphasis.
I'll miss your posts, but I totally understand your decision. Reading should be for pleasure, first and foremost.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck and enjoy your break!
I'll look forward to reading your posts when you feel like returning!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break! We all need one once in a while. I think about my blog way too much. If your girls haven't read Jessica Day George yet, I just checked out her latest fairy tale retelling. I've liked her books so far.
