When the one activity you love becomes a bother, it's time to take a step back and reorganize your priorities.
I use to read for the pure joy of each new adventure...
Then I read to gobble up title after title, marking each of my ticks on GoodReads, and the like...
Then, like so many of us, I fell into the trap of gorging myself on endless novels, just to keep up with the blog next door...
Title after title, paragraph after paragraph, information overload and "What was that last book about"?
I realized I wasn't having fun anymore...It sucks
When blogging becomes a bore and reading becomes a chore, it's way past time to take a step back and re-evaluate the purpose of the "job".
So with all that said, I will no longer bow to the pressures of keeping up with the Jones' and commit to nothing more than reading for the sole purpose of the pure, uninhibited, thoroughly entertaining and wondrously adventurous experience it was intended for!
If I happen to write a review or two (and I am certain I will), it will be a happy coincidence and not because of any perceived obligation.
