What will 2011 have in store . . . ?

I have just read THE STORY SIREN’s Reading and Blogging New Year Resolutions and decided that I would document my own as well.  For the last month (since I haven’t been able to really read for long stretches of time and had too much “thinking time”) I have been thinking about my blog.  I feel that I will need to make a change.  I am not happy with my blogging self or the way my blog looks.  Here is a few of the things I have in mind.

1.  Change my blog’s look.  And by this I mean the layout and the template.  I have been trying to learn a little HTML but if I can’t get it right in the first few months of the year, I am going to have to get someone to design it for me.  I am not happy with it at the moment and it is driving me nuts.  I have had a temporary Christmassy design but now I will find something else temporary . . . 

2.  Blog regularly.  For the last month or so, I have only been blogging on weekends and then only mostly my normal meme-type posts.  Okay, I had a reason but still.  I have to start planning, maybe get some pre-scheduled posts up . . . just do more.  I am not happy with myself.

3.  Comment more.  I spend a lot of time online, reading blogs but I do not comment much.  I have to start spreading the love more.   I love my favourite blogs but I am sure those bloggers don’t even know me as I am just lurking about . . .

4.  Chat more on Twitter (this one I have taken from the Story Siren).  It seems we all have this problem – even the experienced and famous bloggers among us!  I always feel awkward just jumping into a conversation but maybe I should just close my eyes and join in.  You can always just ignore me if they don’t want me to join, right?

5.   Review immediately.  I still have two books I read earlier in the year that I have not reviewed.  I don’t why. . . as I have really strong feelings about both – one good and one bad.  My resolution is that I will try to write my review immediately after I read the book from now on!  I will, I will!

6.  Read regularly.   My goal this year was to read 100 books in 2010 and I would have made it.  I am up to 92 today.  Unfortunately with my eye operation (cannot focus to read yet) and my reading slump, I did not make it.  Next year I will try for 100 again : ) I have been making a reading list . . . I just LOVE making lists!

So this is my resolutions for 2011 – what is yours?

Blogger interview: Lu from Lu’s Book Blog

Today I have fellow South African, Lu with me in the interview spot. I met Lu through a South African Goodreads group that she runs beautifully.  A very busy lady. 

Welcome Lu!!

Please tell us a little about your blog.
Lu's Bloody Big Book Blog is a place where I can post my reviews, discuss book to movie news, have fun discussions and generally express myself.

How did it all start?   And how long has it been?
I started blogging on the 7th October, can you believe its only been 2 months? It feels like forever!
Someone linked their personal blog on Goodreads once and I thought it was a good idea! So then I made one, and a week later had the idea for a archaeology blog. Then about 2 months later I came across a book blog and through it was a brilliant idea! And the addiction started :)

How much time and energy do you put into your blog?Do you enjoy doing memes and if so, which ones can be found on your blog?
I put at least 2 hours a day into my blogging. More reading other peoples blogs that posting, but I like commenting on others posts :)
I do enjoy certain meme's. Blog Hop Friday is a nice way to stop by all your favourite blogs and Waiting on Wednesday is a great way to find new books out there!

How would you describe your review style and how do you handle reviews when you didn't enjoy the book?
I try and make my reviews easy to navigate. You can see my rating, my spoilers, my take etc. all separated by headings. No need to search for what you are looking for.
When I didn't enjoy a book I try and be honest in a way that I don't bash the author. I know its hard work writing a book so I try not to be too negative :)

What can we expect from you in the future?
More reviews, more chats and more giveaways!

What advise would you give new book bloggers out there especially bloggers outside of the US that do not have easy access to new releases.
Keep at it!
And if you struggle with new releases, I suggest Bookdepository!

Thanks for having me today Chrizette!

Thank you for taking the time, Lu.  It was wonderful having you here!  You can find Lu’s Bloody Big Book blog here.

If you want to be featured in my little interview spot, send me an email through the CONTACT ME page and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

In my Mailbox #10

It’s Sunday again and I am joining another week of In My Mailbox, hosted by Kristi over at The Story Siren.  In My Mailbox is a weekly meme that lets everyone see what books you have received or bought that week.  Kristi is taking a Christmas break but I am continuing my posts :)

This week I have only received one book and it was from my Secret Santa.  We had gift exchange in my Goodreads group and this is what I got!

I must be one of the few people that have not read this one :) It is going camping with me over the Christmas weekend.

What did you get?

On my wishlist #11

On My Wishlist is a fun weekly event hosted by Book Chick City and runs every Saturday. It's where you can list all the books you desperately want but haven't actually bought yet. They can be old, new or forthcoming. It's also an event that you can join in with too - Mr Linky is always at the ready on Carolyn’s blog.  This is the books I am wishing for after I saw it in the blogosphere this week.

The Rose of Sebastopol by Katherine McMahon
In 1854, beautiful, adventurous Rosa Barr travels to the Crimean battlefield with Florence Nightingale’s nursing corps. A headstrong idealist, longing to break out of the rigid confines of life as a young lady, Rosa is determined to make a difference in the world.
For Mariella Lingwood, Rosa’s cousin, the war is contained within the pages of her scrapbook, in her London sewing circle, and in the letters she receives from her fiancé, Henry—a celebrated surgeon who has also volunteered to work within the shadow of the guns. When Henry falls ill and is sent to recuperate in Italy, Mariella impulsively decides she must go to him. But upon her arrival at his lodgings, she makes a heartbreaking discovery: Rosa has disappeared without a trace. Following the trail of her elusive cousin, Mariella’s epic journey takes her from the domestic restraint of Victorian London to the ravaged landscape of the Crimea and the tragic city of Sebastopol, where she encounters Rosa’s dashing stepbrother, a reckless cavalry officer whose complex past —and future—is inextricably bound up with her own. As Mariella’s quest leads her deeper into the dark heart of the conflict, her ordered world begins to crumble and she finds she has much to learn about secrecy, faithfulness, and love.

The Little Giant of Aberdeen County by Tiffany Baker
Truly Plaice, an overly large and ungainly girl, is the polar opposite of her sister, Serena Jane, the epitome of feminine perfection. With their parents dead, Truly and Serena Jane are separated: Serena Jane to live a life of privilege as the future May Queen and Truly to live on the outskirts of town, the subject of constant abuse and humiliation. There, while Serena Jane’s beauty proves to be her biggest curse, Truly finds her calling—the ability to heal illness with herbs and naturopathic techniques—and, in reckoning with her demons, the possibility of love in unexpected places.

Mercy by Rebecca Lim
A fallen angel haunted by her past. Yearning for her immortal beloved. Forever searching for answers. Who will show her Mercy?
Mercy has lost herself. She can’t count how many times she’s “woken up” in a new body, and assumed a new life, only to move on again and again. During the day she survives in the human world on instinct and at night her dreams are haunted by him. Mercy’s heart would know him anywhere. But her memory refuses to cooperate.
But this time is different. When Mercy wakes up she meets Ryan, an eighteen year old reeling from the loss of his twin sister who was kidnapped two years ago. Everyone else has given up hope, but Ryan believes his sister is still alive. Using a power she doesn’t fully comprehend, Mercy realizes that Ryan is right. His sister is alive and together they can find her. For the first time since she can remember, Mercy has a purpose; she can help. So she doesn’t understand why the man in her dreams cautions her not to interfere. But as Ryan and Mercy come closer to solving the dark mystery of his sister’s disappearance, danger looms just one step behind.
Will Mercy be able to harness her true self and extraordinary power in time?
The first in a dazzling new series, Mercy masterfully weaves romance, mystery and the supernatural into a spell-binding tale.
What about you?  Adding to add?

Free books I found #9

Merry Christmas everyone!

Lets jump right into this week’s books.  Firstly I found this one.


Boom by Jim Brown
A young woman darts into a Los Angeles hospital emergency room screaming for help. The cause of her concern is a three inch tattoo on her left arm that reads: 00:01- BOOM!
She doesn’t know how, when, or where she got it. But she swears it’s . . . changing.
“When I woke up this morning it said ten hours,” she tells the ER nurse. “But later when I looked it said five hours and twenty-three minutes. So I started watching it – real close like – and I saw it wiggle and change. Oh God. I think it’s counting down.”
Anne Thayer is a relatively new nurse but dedicated to her craft. And even though the patient is clearly a meth-head Anne does her very best to assuage the girls obvious delusions until – the nurse sees it too. A three inch tattoo moving, rearranging to read: 00:00 – BOOM!

Blogger interview: LovLivLife Reviews

 

The bubbly Chasticy from LovLivLife Reviews are with us today.  And what a fun interview this was - thank you so much for being here today, Chasticy!!

Aloha Everyone.  Aloha Chrizette.  Thank you for having me babble on your blog today!


Please tell us a little about your blog.
LovLivLife Reviews is short for Lovin’ & Livin’ Life Reviews: One Yummy Book at a Time. The idea behind the name & motto is simple: my love of reading while living my life.  Basically, I live life literally one book at a time.  I could be hiking trails or at the beach but I always have a book near by.
Nicholas Sparks @ the beach.  Taken by me.

                    

Recent hike.  Pix taken by me. Wiliwili Nui Ridge on the East side of Oahu.

How did it all start?   And how long has it been?
My blog has seen a few changes over the years.  It began as a personal blog then morphed into a book blog.  I’ve been book blogging for a year now but I’ve been blogging (in general) for a few years now.   Books/Reading is one of my main passions in my life so I am not surprised that my personal blog made that change.

How much time and energy do you put into your blog?
I spend a considerable amount of time book blogging- not to mention other blogging I do.  I used to work online managing a local forum but now that is no longer I have more time for my bookie adventures.  My time is split between: maintaining my blog (reading, preparing posts, organizing events, etc), Reading/commenting on other blogs, Reading/replying to blog emails and then just browsing for bookie news and titles.  So overall book blogging gets a great deal of my time and energy.  But there is no other place online or in person that can compare to the book blogging community so I enjoy every minute spent.  As far as translating all that into hours per week I am going to avoid that calculating that number so I can remain oblivious :D

Do you enjoy doing memes and if so, which ones can be found on your blog?
I enjoy memes that are fun, simple and with purpose.  The main Meme I participate in is In My Mailbox.  The platform is already set and the idea is not only easy but it serves a purpose that my blog (and me) benefits from.
As far as Memes in general, I don’t do them as often due to the time difference.  In Hawaii, I seem to behind everyone in time.  So come Tuesday night when I want to post a Teaser Tuesday everyone is already past it and on Waiting on Wednesday.  It’s not just making the posts either it’s commenting as well.  I comment when everyone is asleep or vice versa.  However, with tools like scheduled postings (if I can get mine to work) time difference really is not as big an issue.

On LovlivLife Reviews, I have my own features one being similar to WOW.  I have On My Hit List.  It is a feature that can be done any day of the week and is purposed to showcase books you are waiting to read, want to read, hope to read or just want to share.  Not a big difference from other memes like WOW (I call it feature) but also a way to include or consolidate other postings I was doing like spotlighting book posts.  I do always encourage commentors to leave a link to their postings no matter the featured name.


How would you describe your review style and how do you handle reviews when you didn't enjoy the book?
Ohhhh.... good question.  If I did not like a book and it’s from my personal shelf more likely I will not review it.  Main reason being- reviews take time and it’s time I could spend reading blog posts or cracking open a new book.
If it is a book I committed to reviewing I make sure I back up with reasons and/or point out a spot(s) in the novel in support of my comments.  It’s hard not to mix in personal preferences so when I do I am sure to mention it is my opinion only.  For instance, I read a fantastic book but there was a lot of drug usage and cigarette smoking.  I made comment towards it because they are both issues I feel strongly about but gave the book high marks.

My overall style is: I enjoy a book- I’m happy!  I’m not a professional editor or writer so I can only review from my personal entertainment perspective.  Right now I do not have a rating system because many times as days pass my thoughts on a book evolve so my rating may change.  Also, I think many readers by pass reading reviews.  *From my personal experience* I look at the rating and then maybe I will skim the review and maybe I will read it fully.

I will say this.... I am an easy reviewer.  All I want to do is visit a whole new world and enjoy myself.... plus, man candy is always a plus.  Barrons from Fever series, Bones from Night Huntress, Clay from WTOW, Curran from Kate Daniels- shall I go on? LOL!

What can we expect from you in the future?
Soon I will be hosting a giveaway worth a million dollars in books.  

=D Just kidding. Although I am sure many of us dream of having free and unlimited supply of books and a million bucks pretty much achieves that.

There are three projects I am working on. One is a new feature that is meant to be fun and keep the flow of communication and interaction between bloggers and blogger & readers.  Kind of like this post here.  The second is my Book Jackets.  My goal for 2011 is to have a few Book Jacket giveaways per month minimum.  Psst, I am eager to try out a new style for a Book Jacket but time eludes me.
(Love these, aren't pretty!)
 

 

The third project is a series of giveaways in sipport of my Hawaii Libraries.  The books would be from the Hawaii State Public Library (the various branches) ‘For Sale’ racks.  The money is used to support the Hawaii libraries & its branches and in these economic times the libraries could use the funds.  I find a ton of great books in great shape on these shelves and I always think to my self ‘someone would love that.”  Many times, I pass them up because I either don't read the genre or I already have it.  If you frequent my blog you will see that I find some AMAZING books on these shelves.  In fact, I would love hear what you think of this potential (not implemented yet) feature,  your thoughts on its success level, possible feature name, etc.



What advise would you give new book bloggers out there?
Blog for the love of reading and sharing.  Don’t be afraid to email other bloggers for advice or help with something you see them using on their blog and reciprocate when you are sought out.  Lastly, do your own thing and incorporate your other talents, passions and hobbies- like sewing with me.

Mahalo Chrizette and readers for giving me the opportunity to talk waaaaay too much.  I hope everyone enjoys themselves this time of year no matter what you are celebrating.  
*blowing a kiss* xoxo, Chasity @ ♫♥LovLiveLife Reviews♥♫

On my Wishlist #10

On My Wishlist is a fun weekly event hosted by Book Chick City and runs every Saturday. It's where you can list all the books you desperately want but haven't actually bought yet. They can be old, new or forthcoming. It's also an event that you can join in with too - Mr Linky is always at the ready on Carolyn’s blog.  This is the books I am wishing for after I saw it in the blogosphere this week.

The following two books have been floating through the blogosphere quite a lot but I REALLY want them too!

Matched by Ally Condie
Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate . . . until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black.
The Society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.

Wither (The Chemical Garden Trilogy) by Lauren DeStefano
(release date March 2011)
What if you knew exactly when you would die?

Thanks to modern science, every human being has become a ticking genetic time bomb—males only live to age twenty-five, and females only live to age twenty. In this bleak landscape, young girls are kidnapped and forced into polygamous marriages to keep the population from dying out.

When sixteen-year-old Rhine Ellery is taken by the Gatherers to become a bride, she enters a world of wealth and privilege. Despite her husband Linden's genuine love for her, and a tenuous trust among her sister wives, Rhine has one purpose: to escape—to find her twin brother and go home.

But Rhine has more to contend with than losing her freedom. Linden's eccentric father is bent on finding an antidote to the genetic virus that is getting closer to taking his son, even if it means collecting corpses in order to test his experiments. With the help of Gabriel, a servant Rhine is growing dangerously attracted to, Rhine attempts to break free, in the limted time she has left.

Her Warrior Angel (Her Angel Romance Series) by Felicity Heaton

Einar, Heaven's best hunter, is on a mission to find three demons. When he discovers the first battling a beautiful woman, he saves her life. Taylor fights demons every night but working with Einar is her biggest challenge yet. She wants him but she can't let herself fall for him. He's an angel. She's half demon. Love between their species is forbidden, but resisting their desire is impossible.

So what are you hoping for?

Free books I found this week #8

I want to share these books I found this week.

Insight by Jamie Magee is first.  I saw this on a blog this week and had to go and see what it is about.  I think it was the cover. :)
Before that fateful summer night, Willow had balanced the insight of emotion, and her vivid images. That night,the figure in her nightmare marked her wrist with a star, giving her father no choice but to tell Willow a family secret that would abruptly change life, as she knew it, forever.

Still the One by Kathryn Shay I found on Smashwords.  I haven’t read it yet but it seems like a cute little love story :)
Welcome to The Educators, Kathryn Shay’s new series of never before published novellas in a school setting. In Still the One, Annie Jacobs is happy teaching at her home town high school until her former teacher, Dylan Kane, returns to be the principal. Annie and Dylan have a past, one which almost destroyed her. Will he do it again?
I have decided to add a Mr Linky – so if there are any free eBooks that you think should be shared with the rest of us, please add it below.

Top Ten Tuesday

6.  Born at Midnight by CC Hunter (release date 29 March 2011)

Kylie Galen has had a lot of crap tossed in her lap. Her parents are getting a divorce. Her boyfriend broke up with her because she wouldn’t put out. Her grandmother died and now Kylie’s acquired a stalker. Unfortunately, she’s the only one who seems to be able to see the stalker. And that gets her sent to a psychologist’s sofa.
The kooky psychologist gets Kylie sent to Shadow Falls Camp. Kylie and her parents think it’s a camp for troubled teens.
They thought wrong.
It’s a camp of supernaturals: vampires, werewolves, fairies, witches and shape shifters. And if she believes the camp leader, Kylie is one of them, too.
Just because she’s seeing ghosts, just because she was born at midnight, does that really mean she’s not human? And if so, what is she? Not even the other supernaturals can tell her.
As Kylie attempts to cope with the realization that these creatures actually exist, and that she might even be one of them, the ever present stalker/ghost appears to have secrets that could unravel the mystery of Kylie’s identity and her destiny.
But getting a ghost to open up is as hard as getting a guy to talk about his feelings.
As Kylie struggles to find answers, two hot guys, a werewolf and a half-fairy vie for her attention. However, Kylie’s determined that before she lets her heart discover a new love, she needs to solve her indentify crisis and unearth the truth of her destiny.
What 2011 books am I missing?  Let me know.
