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.

Cleanliness of Library Books

January 8, 2015

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.

Retrospect #53: January 4

January 5, 2015

Birds in the skyMy vacation with the family was splendid. We spent most of the time resting, though we did go out for fresh air too. I loved having practically no plans. The best part was being able to get up whenever I felt like it in the mornings early afternoons.

The Point of Reading Challenges

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.

Reflecting on 2014

January 1, 2015

Quiet reflections at the beachBefore embarking on a new journey, I think reflecting on past journeys is important. In this case, I’m dedicating some time to reviewing 2014 before I fully delve into 2015. It helps that I set clear goals at the beginning of last year, so I’ll focus on those.
