Harry Potter quiz – which character are you?

Just for Fun: Harry Potter quiz – which book character are you? I just took this quiz here and ended up with this result.

TBR Challenge 2014

TBR Challenge 2014 This challenge (hosted by the lovely folks at ♥!The Young Adult Book Club!♥ on Goodreads) is going to be one of the biggest personal challenges for me this year.

In fact, I ended up only reading 7 books (my goal was to read 10). I thought that this challenge would be fairly straightforward so I was really disappointed when it came to the end of the year […]

A-Z Challenge 2014

A-Z Challenge 2014 This is a challenge being hosted by the Young Adult Book Club on Goodreads.

I somehow managed to complete it without actively trying to – I made my books fit the challenge not the other way around. This time I want to try something different. I […]
