Extended holidays

I’ve decided to keep using the template I have for a few more weeks. Possibly until the end of January. I actually like the Christmas-y feel of the template and I enjoy seeing the snowman in the header ;)

Now, by February, I think I will use a Valentine theme. Or get a new template possibly. I am not feeling the old template anymore so that won’t be making an appearance in the near future.

What do you think?

Blog under construction

under-construction

I am currently in the process of changing this blog’s theme.

Please bear with me as I change some things around here. If you notice the header changing, that’s okay. I will be trying out some new headers and will know then what the final choice will be.

Sorry for the inconvenience but I promise everything will be great once done here!

Changes and changes ;)

There will be some good changes happening in this blog…

  • I am planning to change this blog’s template. I plan to have that template with a featured post in it so that every week, there will be a featured book and that will be the first thing everyone sees.
  • There will also be a featured book for a week. I will discuss it little by little. I think the first book I’ll feature is the book Willow by Julia Hoban. I love that book! Every week there will be a new one that will start on Mondays and end on Fridays. Review will be on Sundays. This is aside from the other book reviews that will be done at least 3x a week, if there are any.
  • This author will also be accepting suggestions on books that I can read and review. I will also be accepting ARCs.

So bear with me as I implement the changes here.

Happy Monday and I hope everyone will have a good work week!

The Bookstore Test


You Are Modern


You are optimistic and forward looking. You love living in this world.

You have are drawn to the darker elements of life. You like a bit of grit.

The world excites you. There are so many places you want to go and things you want to learn.

You have a few key interests that are borderline obsessions. You can’t stop thinking about them!

The Bookstore Test

A Dot Com finally! Introducing Chapters and Pages =)

I have finally decided to use a DOT COM for this blog of mine. I would like to welcome you to ChaptersAndPages.com, people! :) I have a couple of requests, if it’s not too much to ask…

First off, for those I’ve exchanged links with or have posted anything by this blog, would it be okay for you to change the URL to this new one? It’s http://chaptersandpages.com, thanks!

Secondly, I am looking to generate a list of the good blogs, personal blogs or similar to mine which is about books. Would you like to exchange links?

Lastly, I love hearing about good reads. If you have a book that you would like me to read and make a review of, just leave a comment on any of my most recent posts and I will get to it.

Happy blogging everyone!

;)

Must Watch: Wedding entrance with a style!

OMG! I was crying and laughing while I was watching this amazing video! It is the wedding entrance of Minnesota couple Jill Peterson and Kevin Hines when they tied the knot at a Church in Saint Paul, Minnesota. You have to see it for yourself to know what I am talking about…

This should be the way a wedding is celebrated. Fun! And truly happy! Wacky, even! I love, love, love this wedding entrance! To think that my friend and I are always talking about her wedding entrance to be upbeat. There could never be anything more upbeat than this one!

Many years of wedded bliss, Kevin and Jill!

This blog’s Alexa rank

I started this blog last July 8 only. My goal is to document my journey in the world of novels. I love reading! This is one of the few things that can make me truly happy. Sounds pathetic ba? I am really happy when I am lost in my own world. And my world is my book collection.

Anyway, from July 8 to present, I’ve seen my Alexa ranking increase by leaps and bounds. As of today, upon logging in, I noticed that from last night’s 11M ranking, this blog’s Alexa rank is now up to 5,594,938. Yey!

It’s not a big deal for most people since they say we can manipulate an Alexa rank. But for me, this is already a big thing. My close blogger-friends know why hehehe

That’s all for now. Happy Sunday everyone!
