Gobble, Gobble



To those of you that celebrate it, I want to with you a Happy Thanksgiving! And.. well, if you don't celebrate it, I'm wishing you a very happy Thursday! And for everyone's enjoyment - it's a sexy turkey!

My family is taking a different route this year, usually we go to someone's house and have a HUGE meal, this year we're all doing our own thing.. so my household is going to the Grand Victoria Casino for their Thanksgiving buffet. Here's hoping it isn't crowded!

So, let's list a few things that I'm thankful for, to get in the mood. I'm thankful for my friends and family, they're there for me through it all. And I'm thankful for, of course, YOU dear readers. Blogging wouldn't be quite as much fun without you guys here to read and comment once in a while. I know my blog is still technically small scale, and I'm maybe a little slow at getting things to review, but I enjoy doing it, and I've met some great people so far. Well, I'm off to find suitable clothes for gambling (oh yes, we will be gambling as well) and still look nice for Thanksgiving. Wish me luck!

Happy Reading, and Happy Thanksgiving (or Turkey Day, or Thursday, or whatever you want to celebrate today!)

Dear Readers/Followers.. your opinions please!

My dear friends, the new year is quickly approaching, and with it, I would like to make this blog something more.. accessible, I think. By the middle of next month, I will have graduated with my Bachelors (oh my gosh, I'm not ready!), and with that big change, I want to bring a change here. So far, it's just been me doing reviews, and occasional updates on what's coming out that I'm interested in, what my favorite authors are doing, etc. Buuut....

Here's the part where I need your help! What should I start including? Should I start taking part in memes, would you like to see themed daily posts, should I include more of myself in the posts.. or maybe would you like to see more information about the books within the reviews? Of course, I will only take part in things I feel comfortable with, if I feel like it's something I'll feel "blah" about doing... I won't do it. I want to have fun as a blogger, as much as I want you all to enjoy reading it. And neither of us will have fun if I'm all "yeah, and then there's this stuff... and blah..."

I do plan to do some giveaways (nothing huge, I'm not exactly rolling in money right now), but something to just show my readers I appreciate them, and I'm thankful that they participate on my blog. I also plan to get reviews out quicker, I'm sooo backed up! But as we all know, school comes first. Though I'm actually furthering my procrastination by writing this.. I have a rather big research paper due Tuesday, and it's taking up all my time.

Please, comment and let me know what you think would be nice to see, or what memes or themes you enjoy participating in, or just comment about how the weather is, if the urge strikes you!

Happy Reading!
