COYER Wrap-Up Post

COYER ScavHuntLogo-SignUp
I participated for the first time in The Clean Out Your E-Reads Challenge this summer, hosted by Fantasy is More FunBecause Reading, and Books, Movies, Reviews.Oh My!  It was my very first Challenge and I think I did okay as I had a very busy summer too. I read 14 book! I had planned on reading 20 but I'm still really happy. I had great fun and can't wait until the next COYER!

Here's how I did:




  • Participate in at least 2 of the read-a-thons.

  • Join in with some of the Facebook activities.
    • I started off really well with this and answered the questions (almost) everyday. Bu then I got really busy and completely forgot about it.

  • And lastly, I plan to join Twitter soon so if I get my head around it I will try to join at least 1 Twitter party.
    • I did join Twitter! However, I couldn't join any of the Twitter parties. I was either working or had something on every single time one was scheduled and I'm really gutted.

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by  The Broke and The Bookish .  This week's topic is the top ten characters you'd like to check in with.  I really struggled with this one, my brain just went blank and I couldn't really think of anyone besides pretty obvious choices.

Discussion: The Problem With My Local Library

I used to use my local library all the time when I was in school.  Source I even spent every lunchtime in my school's library. My friends and I were pupil librarians and we practically had the run of the whole library. And then, when I started University, the only library I had time for was the University library. And that wasn't an enjoyable experience. However, last summer I started going to my local library again. (I then had to stop again when I got my job.) And unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed.  Source The availability sucks. I can deal with books I want that are already out on loan. It's the complete lack of decent books the library has on its system that gets to me. All those months I went to the library last year and I never left with a book that was already on my TBR. I walked around that place looking at my Goodreads trying to find any book on that list. And I couldn't find any at all (except for the Classics). To be honest, I ...
