Keeping Track of Series

January 17, 2015

Keeping track of series
When it came to series, I was convinced that I was in the midst of five or maybe six of them but surely no more than ten. This week I found out that I was way off the mark with my estimations. The current tally is a grand total of 24. I found out because I decided I had to come up with a system to track them and so set out to do up a spreadsheet.

Book Cover Culture #8: Ruby Red

January 15, 2015

German and US book covers of Rubinrot or Ruby Red by Kerstin GierRuby Red is a book I that I listened to in German because I wanted to try out the audiobook function in the Onleihe app using my iPhone. The thing with Onleihe is that audiobooks can only be downloaded on Windows because the files are WMA.

New book spines
I haven’t done the Math yet, I did save a few hundreds of dollars on the books I read last year. This is because I borrowed and read a lot of library books instead of buying them. (Although, I still bought a fair amount of books.) It’s one of the many reasons I love libraries.

January 2, 2015

Colourful stacks of booksNew year’s is the time to make resolutions or at least to decide whether or not we are game for resolutions. On a personal level, I rarely make resolutions. But when it comes to reading, I have taken to setting yearly goals. As with any hobby, I usually aim to better myself in one way or another. This is where reading challenges come into play.

Books on Screen: Photographing eBooks and Audiobooks

December 26, 2014

Book through Phone with Kyria und Reb by Andrea SchachtBook photography doesn’t have to be confined to printed books. Photographing ebooks and even audiobooks can result in equally stunning photos. If anything, the fun in photographing ebooks and audiobooks lies in the challenge they pose. Bookshelves and book stacks are not an option but there are other ways to add interest to digitised books.
