Musing Monday! (23rd June 2014)

Hi Book Lovers and Welcome to Musing Monday for the 23rd June 2014!





Musing Mondays is a weekly meme hosted by Should Be Reading ,which asks you to muse about one of the following each week…
• Describe one of your reading habits.
• Tell us what book(s) you recently bought for yourself or someone else, and why you chose that/those book(s).
• What book are you currently desperate to get your hands on? Tell us about it!
• Tell us what you’re reading right now — what you think of it, so far; why you chose it; what you are (or, aren’t) enjoying it.
• Do you have a bookish rant? Something about books or reading (or the industry) that gets your ire up? Share it with us!
• Instead of the above questions, maybe you just want to ramble on about something else pertaining to books.


So on to my musing..... 
            This week I have chosen to muse about Reading Slumps:

Recently I have found myself in a reading slump, I haven't really been very motivated to read and have been spending more time watching TV and playing computer games. I never believed people when they said they were in a reading slump, I always thought they were just being lazy, but now I realise it is a thing. I am not being lazy as I have taken my dog on long walks, and blitzed the house, I just don't feel like reading. And even when I do pick my book up after a couple of pages I want to put it down, but its not the story, I am enjoying it, I just don't want to read it at the moment. But rest assured I will keep on trying and hopefully, get of this slump eventually.

Buy Now: The Book Depository Amazon UK Amazon US Kindle UK “ I didn't know where my legs were taking me. I lost myself in the maze of corridors, my awe increasing with every turn. It wasn't a welcoming place - there were few windows and most of the light came from gas lamps fashioned to look like torches or the occasional spotlight, which would highlight an alcove containing an expensive-looking painting or vase - but it was certainly grand. There was wood panelling...

I climbed back up the steps and, screaming fit to burst, scratched and banged at the door. But my father was a hard man and he left me all alone in the dark for hours, until long after dawn. After a bit, I calmed down and do you know what I did then?" I shook my head, trying not to look at his face. His eyes were g...

Buy it now on Kindle UK Buy it now on kindle US “ Devin stared through the large plate glass window of the Escamonde Hotel at the dark branches of the walnut tree. In between two of the large, lower branches there was a wispy, white piece of fabric. Or at least, there had been a second before. He blinked, and saw the fabric again. But then he jerked away and yelped . „
