Update Thursday #25

Welcome to Update Thursday, my own personal meme of sorts where I post an update of the goings on at my blog, with reading, with writing, and beyond. Feel free to borrow the idea from me for your own bookish musings.

Reading, Writing...

Books I finished this week:
~Garfield Minus Garfield by Jim Davis
~Persuasion by Jane Austen (Summer Romance Challenge)

Books I'm reading now (and some still):

~Virals by Kathy Reich
~Portal by Imogen Rose
~Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (Summer Romance Challenge)
~Stealing Heaven by Elizabeth Scott (Off The Shelf Challenge)

Summer Romance Challenge Progress Link (7 of 8 finished) ~ends 09/30/11
Off The Shelf Reading Challenge Progress Link (1 of 5 finished) ~ends 12/31/11

AHHH!! Almost done with Summer Romance Challenge. Can't wait to move on to the rest of the books I have lined up. Including my Banned Books Week personal read.

Speaking of Banned Books Week, we're only TWO DAYS AWAY! Get yourselves ready, I've got stuff lined up to get you to think and get involved. ^_^

Writing: Totally came up with another story idea. I still need to copy it out of my phone into my writing notebook. Other than that, not much happening this week. The focus has been reading, and blog writing and plotting. (Speaking of which, I had this great idea last night for a blog post dealing with balancing, I was up until 2 AM writing it...)

And Otherwise...

After I read some blog posts the other day, I was compelled to look up the audiobook Ed Westwick read for on You Tube, just for grins. I didn't think I'd find anything on it... I was so wrong...



I nearly fell off my chair upon hearing the first seconds of his voice. He probably had barely read a paragraph and I was opening a new tab to buy the audiobook. I couldn't wait to finish the other books first before buying the 4th. I don't care if I hate the series. I'd still listen to the audiobook. Even if I don't know what's going on. That's how crazy I am.

Speaking of Gossip Girl... the new season is starting NEXT MONDAY!!! Of course, they HAD to change the time to 8:00 PM instead of keeping it at 9:00 PM. This means I won't be able to watch it until next TUESDAY online. (Stupid new work schedule...) I need to buy a TiVo. In any case... I'll be posting a Gossip Girl mini party post Sunday. There will be links and videos and spoilers galore.


All for now lovelies!
