Book Haul

The upcoming novel by Justina Chen… I completely forgot about it with my life. Oops. 😅
The Reading Life
Sophia
I finished Fire and Bone and honestly, I feel disappointed after The Heart Forger. Ever had that really good book and every other book turns out to be a disappointment?
Yeah, that’s me right now. I blame Rin Chupeco for doing this to me.
I’ve jumped right into The Way You Make Me Feel by Maurene Goo and so far it’s going okay, but I think it’s getting better.
Lupe
I have no reading life at this point. What’s new?
Life

I’m trying to clean my Habitica* account up, and I don’t think there’s a party for book bloggers so there’s one now! Join Vee, Chloe, Lauren and me as we unlock our gaming selves while being productive. Let me know if you want in – if it gets big enough (more than 30 as this is the maximum number in a party), we’re considering a guild for book bloggers. š
*Habitica is a productivity app that is set up like a game with quests, challenges, parties and guilds.
Lupe
-I have finished my string art project for school!
-I burned my hand from baking! I was checking to see if my bread was fully baked. I was using a rag instead of my oven mitt and I hit the back of my hand on one of the oven racks. Trust me, this is NOT the first time I’ve done this. I have many other oven burn marks on both of my arms. Why do I keep baking again?
Sophia: I thought I was the bad cook and banned from the kitchen!
How is your week? Less exciting? More exciting? Are you a good cook? Do you use Habitica and want to join our currently very small party?
Lupe is a 22-year-old Mexican-American who enjoys reading and watching movies when she gets the chance to relax. Her all-time favorite series consists of Bloodlines and Vampire Academy (among others), and her favorite author is Richelle Mead.
Sophia has a GIF for nearly everything and is frequently in a Hogwarts House crisis. Unlike her personality in blog posts, she's a socially awkward recent college grad who majored in Communications. More of her bookish reviews can be found at The Arts STL.
I want in on Habitica! I am obsessed with this app and Lauren @Northern Plunder recently informed me about your party – I am so keen!
Lupe, Iām sorry to hear about your reading life, and I hope it gets better soon x
Um, hello, yes, we’ll take you and keep you in our smol little party.
I hate book hangovers. Ugh. And ouch sorry you burned yourself Lupe! I hope the bread was good. š
Have a good week!!
My week was sent straight from Satan to torture me. š
I sympathize with the baking burns. I worked at a baked potato store when I was at uni and had so many burn marks from the cooking racks up and down my arms… They all faded, eventually!
Aww sorry to hear that, Nicci! š
My ears perked up when you said productivity app! I actually saw you talk about that on discord last week but couldn’t quite figure out what it was about. I think I’ll try to get the app and then talk to you š when I figure out what it’s about š
I’ve got your back! Or at least, lead you to resources that will explain it better than I can, haha. I hope it’s helping. ^_^
Wooo Habitica! Sounds like you’ve both been busy as usual haha. Hope you have a great week š
Thanks Chloe! ^_^ It’s definitely been busy… as I am guilty of replying two months later oops.
Ughhhh nothing worse than a book hangover š Hope that your week ahead is great!
Lupe- can we see your string art project?
Good luck to all of you on your final projects! I hope it all goes well. So close. š
-Lauren
I burned myself in exactly the same way while making a cake. It hurt for days. Good luck with the final projects! Have a great week!
Oof, that sounds painful. >_>
Seems like everyone has been busy. Hope the burn isn’t serious, Lupe!
Thanks, Michelle! ^_^
I’ve never heard of Habatica. I’ll have to check that out!
You should! I’m sure our smol party would love to you have you with us. š
[…] Sophia @ Bookwyrming Thoughts […]
Okay I have never heard of Habitica. I have to check this out haha.
It’s an amazing app/site, especially if you have a bit of a gamer side to you or like something a little different from other productivity apps and sites. š
Hii!! I just started using Habitica, and I’D LOVE TO JOIN YOU! I’m already in a different party, though… Have you reached the minimum for a guild?
