You know what? Scratch that!
I started The Book Thief (in English) and even though i’m quite good at reading English (I’m Belgian, so my first language is Dutch) I find it quite difficult. So i’ll try again later.
For now, I feel like reading something familiar: Divergent! I wonder if it’ll be different, now that i know how it all ends…

// New Reading-record!
Yesterday morning i started reading the last book in PJO series - The Last Olympian… And i finished just after midnight…
Oh. My. Gods.
I’ve never been able to read a book that fast (neither have i ever had the time to do so) but this just felt like a full-time roller-coaster!

Snapshots Of Life #294 - Thursday July 16th 2015
My dad took me book shopping in Amsterdam!
It was a 3 hour drive (single trip) which is ridiculous now that I think of it but we had such a good time so it was totally worth it!
Maybe I should go on a book buying ban.
What!? NO! Have you lost your mind?
Well… maybe… but I also have 50+ books on my shelf and Kindle that I bought in the last year or so and there’s also this thing called a bank account.
But-
So,
No.
I hereby declare
Don’t do it!
that as of today, February 26th 2015,
PLEASE
I’m on a book buying ban until July 1st.
*drops dead*
Only 125 days left.
Now LOOK WHAT YOU’VE DONE
