Hello everyone. It's time for another Weekly Update, where I talk about what I'm reading, watching, and sometimes eating and drinking. So let's get started.

Organizing your GoodReads shelves

Goodreads, while an amazing site to track all the books that I read or I'm interested too, can turn up into a huge unorganized collection of broken dreams stack of books that I'm remotely interested into. That's because there are so many recommendations that I (as many readers) don't even get time to think about what I really will read sometime, and I end up using my to-read as a book bookmarking tool. Alongside the enormously giant to-be-read monster, Goodreads also don't have a way of marking a book as on hold or even dropped.

Ok, I decided that from time to time I'll be posting the Waiting on Wednesday blog meme. And for this first post, I'm going with Mechanica, a steampunk fairy tale retelling of Cinderella.

Hello everyone, let's get started with an almost weekly updates on what I'm reading and watching. And now that I started using Trakt.tv, it's way easier to remember. Of course, as a new user, there are a lot of old history mixed up, but it's only temporary.

Comic Book Review: Adventure Time with Fionna and Cake

This Sunday I FINALLY managed to finish reading Adventure Time with Fionna and Cake. I started reading it a while ago, when I started this blog (check this post), but didn't finished it that day, and never picked it up again. It's not that the comics isn't good, but I wasn't in the mood, and wanting to read other things, and with little to no time to read anything at all.

Audio Books vs Audio Dramas

Last year I decided to try some audio books, but in addition to English being not my first language, for some reason I just didn't seem to enjoy the samples I tried to listen to. Maybe it's the pacing, or having to use more of my brain to figure out what's happening and follow the story, the only thing I know is that I don't like listening to stories while I'm doing another thing, even if it's driving. And listening to an audio book while lying in my bed just felt like a bad alternative to reading.
