"It is likely that I will die next to a pile of things I was meaning to read." – Lemony Snicket
I don’t think I’ve ever done a post like this before, but I figure I might as well! Especially since there are more than a couple of books I have been eagerly awaiting…!

I’m working on my dissertation and I welcome death. But although my soul has left my body and I am now a shell of the human I was before, thanks to my mental health, I have managed to read a fair amount.
Shout out to the bad sleep cycles and the calming light on my Kindle!!!!!!

Ya feel me?

At the beginning of May I saw Aentee’s post about this month long event called, Asian Lit Bingo. Which is AMAZING, being from Singapore I’m always trying to find more books, especially SFF, written by Asian authors as well as books that ARE Asian in content in someway.
Instead of participating because my reading has been a bit stagnant as of late, I decided to find a book for each of the squares and make a rec list instead!! In retrospect I probably should have posted this earlier, but whatever. Better late than never. 😎
Gotta say, I’m starting off 2017 quite strong reading wise. YAY ME!!!!
My reading for September has been SHOCKING… Just 3 books… I’m so ashamed of myself… I’ve been so busy but, still…
This month I decided to change things around a bit and focus a bit more on reading graphic novels and comics that I’ve had piling up for AGES, but never got around to reading. Some of which were ‘given’ to me by Net Galley in return for a review. Which is always a fun surprise, seeing as I usually haven’t heard of them!

So. April. It has come and gone… WASN’T MARCH LIKE, YESTERDAY!?!?
HOW DID WE GET HERE SO FAST????
I guess it really is true that time starts zipping by the moment you turn 20…
This month has been crazy tiring work wise and THEN I got sick and spent a bit of time in hospital, and as all chronic illness kids know, is the fun place to be.
I did manage to read a shit load more than I thought I would which is awesome!! I’m even past the half way point for my 40 book reading goal for the year!!!
Although my new mini goal is to try and read at least half of the books that I currently own before I head back to the UK for my masters in the fall. Which is actually a lot of books as well. So uh, that should prove to be an interesting challenge…
