10 reasons why you should carry a book ALWAYS

From the awesome Bloody Bookaholic , I repost here are the 10 reasons WHY you should carry a book ALWAYS!


10. Don't believe your friends and family, parties can be dull...



...specially if you know nobody, or if you are going to a family event that is stock full of third cousins and lots of creepy uncles you didn't even know existed. When I first started reading the Harry Potter series (oh, the good old days) I was so invested in the books I took them with me everywhere I went. Once I took it to a family gathering, to this day I don't remember anything about said gathering but I do remember the story. I also remember that my mother got annoyed at me because I wasn't "socialising" with the other human beings. What can I say, it was Harry Potter!
Also, the event was boring and I didn't know anybody there. In instances like these, believe me, follow Harry's example and hide under the stairs... and read your book.

9. What if the electricity goes out?!?!



I know, scary stuff!! This also happened to me quite recently. My friend were complaining about their Ipad's battery draining, etc, and I was all like "PAPERBACK COPY!!! Can't hear you, reading."

8. The end of the world is here! Aliens are attacking, humanity is doomed!!



... and you are curled up with a very good book. If reading IN THE AFTER taught me anything is this: books are going to be your sole source of entertainment when the zombie overlords attack and take away the electricity and the modern world pretty much collapses on itself.

BTW IN THE AFTER is such a good book, you should definitely read it. Creepy and exhilarating.




7. You are incredibly sad over something to the point where you might cry in public.

No one can quite cry like a Winchester.
Oh look what you got here right in your purse, a nice interesting plot to avoid such public humiliation! Nothing while quite take your mind off things like a good book (if you are unsure if what you are reading at the moment will keep your mind off things always carry extras either in paperback form or e-book).

6. You are incredibly pissed about something to the point where you might punch someone in public.


Unless you got a slap bet with a friend you might want to avoid hitting people in public. So why don't you instead focus your anger on the bitch/ass who is trying to ruin your main character's life?

5. You have a menial chore that could be improved by awarding yourself with one. more. chapter.

Let's face it, we are not all Disney princesses who can keep a smile on their faces while doing meaningless chores. So award yourself every time you get something done! Clean the cobwebs? One more chapter! Who knows? Maybe you might end up doing more work (this is a lie, you will most likely drop any work in order to finish your book, you have been warned).

4. You need a chapter break from life.


Sometimes things are just too much to bear. If you need a distraction from life, from a fight, from searching for your missing kid, grab a book.

3. You are potentially getting robbed but your purse is so heavy with that copy of The Deathly Hallows that the robber just gives up.


... stranger things have been known to happen? If not then HIT HIM IN THE HEAD WITH IT. It will hurt, trust me. Consider carrying an extra hardcover with you at all times as a security measurement.

2. You need some advice to give your friend but you don't know what to say exactly.


Books can give very good advice indeed.

1. Because you just love books.






Books ARE magic.
Maybe you don't need "excuses" to carry a book with you whenever you go. If you don't then you are awesome, and screw anybody else who says otherwise. You are the best, keep it up.

Challenge: Books Around the World

Ok, I might be crazy but I just accepted this challenge that I saw in Book Sanctuary

The aim of this challenge is to read at least ONE book that either the author was born in the country or that the book is set in the country. So, I will be adding unmercifully here and try to complete this challenge. There is no time limit, but of course, I hope to finish it in the next couple of years.


I'm back!

"...I took a wrong turn on the way to the bathroom and found myself in a beautifully proportioned room I had never seen before, containing a really rather magnificent collection of chamberpots. When I went back to investigate more closely, I discovered that the room had vanished. But I must keep an eye out for it. Possibly it is only accessible at five thirty in the morning. Or it may only appear at the quarter moon - or when the seeker has an exceptionally full bladder."
-Dumbledore

So long! I'm kind-of-back. I will be updating all the book stuff that happened last year and hopefully let you catch on to what is happening on the bookshelf this year :) Thanksfor hanging on there!
