So for me, a week is Saturday to Friday. So today is the start of week 11. The next two weeks after that, weeks 12 and 13, I'm doing things a bit differently. Week 12 is my Week of NetGalley, with a whole list of NetGalley books that I want to read. Week 13 is my Week of Edelweiss, with the same, only Edelweiss books.
I don't have everything quite hammered out yet, because there's still book tours, but yeah, I'm going to try and read as many e-ARC's from these sites as I possibly can. Oh, and did I mention, that both lists have over 50 books? So yeah, lots to hopefully read, and I really hope to read a lot, I want to up my number of books read and reviewed on both sites!
Yeah. I just wanted to post about, because yeah, it's a bit crazy (and it's also prompted an idea that I should create review posts for all books that I want to read, just so I have them, which would be a ton of work!) Yep.
So what do you guys think? Happy reading!

Random Thought...
I'm insane. Well, I'm 1 person, and it feels to me like I'm trying to read half of the books ever written in the past 5 years or so. Which I can't do. So I'm going to try reading less-at least till I catch up, and bring a little balance, because this is the 3rd time this has happened (first reading a lot, then writing a lot, now blogging a lot, I'd do it a lot, and then basically burn out, and I don't want that) which is why I want balance. So I'm going to try reading a little, writing a little, and blogging a little, plus college. Because yeah, I'm still me, and I'm still insane. I'll try to lower the levels of said insanity though!
So goals:
Reading/Blogging:
-read a book a day
-catch up on memes/challenges
-write reviews for the past 2 years almost now!!!!!
-keep up to date!!!!!
-update Netgalley sheet of titles
-Manage epubs
-Keep up with Tuebl books and requests
Writing:
-sketch out idea with influences from Born of Fire and the weird movie-by the end of October
-create title for above idea
-write above idea during NaNoWriMo!
-edit above book after finished-by March!
-choose another idea to write after above book is halfway done editing
-write 2nd idea
Random:
-Catch up music plays from when hard drive had to be replaced
-get music that I want
-Watch some TV
-Catch up on shows cancelled before I started watching them, or only watched a few episodes, or it's been forever since I've seen them (Alias, Angel, Blue Bloods, Cold Case, the CSI's, Ghost Whisper, Glee, Grimm, Kim Possible, Liberty's Kids, Missing, NCIS, Numb3rs, Pretty Little Liars, Private Practice, Ringer, Sinbad, Switched at Birth, Teen Wolf, The Following, and The Good Wife are most of the shows I need/want to watch!)
-Start and Finish all 3 online college courses!!!!!
-Keep apartment/room clean!
Ok, here's to hoping that I can accomplish these goals!

Follow Friday #11, January 20th
Follow Friday is a blog hop that expands your blog following by a joint effort between bloggers. Follow Friday is hosted by 2 hosts, Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs! For more rules and how to participate, visit one of the hosts. Now for this week’s question:
Q: What's the craziest thing you've ever done to get your hands on any particular book?
A: I can't really think of anything that could be considered crazy, unless a job that I hated counts. So yeah, nothing actually too crazy, just planning out and trading gift cards to get more money towards books! Must get more books!!!!
What about you guys? Happy reading!

I'm Crazy
I'm crazy. It's offical. I am going to attempt-mind you, attempt, I'm not too crazy!-to read seventeen books this Saturday, to Friday. Yes. Seventeen. Seven plus ten. I just wanted to have one whole hour of reviews, one every 5 minutes, and from 10 am, to 11 am. That'd just make my day! Especially with being so busy with the play right now!
This is what it says:
Saturday: Killer Heat by Brenda Novak, A Beautiful Dark by Jocelyn Davies
Sunday: Lost in Time by Melissa De La Cruz, Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garci and Margaret Stohl, Radiance by Alyson Noel
Monday: If I Die by Rachel Vincent, Stay by Deb Caletti, The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater
Tuesday: All You Desire by Kirsten Miller, White Cat by Holly Black
Wednesday: Num8ers by Rachel Ward, Give Up the Ghost by Megan Crewe
Thursday: Jane by April Linder, Possessed by Kate Cann
Friday: Fallen by Karin Slaughter, Eve by Iris Johansen
and here's the link of where it says it and I think I want to make something of it. Like, for every book I read, any sponsers I might get (you guys) you donate something to a charity like Reading Trees, or Playing by the Book has a list of charities, or something. I'd just like to read a lot, and I don't know if there'll be any turnout from this, since it is rather short notice, and just how many people I reach, well. Yeah. But I'd like to try and have this be good! All but Killer Heat which I own, are library books, and I have over seventy out from the library right now, so I have to read them, and then they go to others. But yeah. So please spread the word if you want to!
