read my books

There are people that spent a lot buying clothes. I spent a lot buying books!

I have a lot in home and I have decided not to buy another one until I read at least half of the books I have in my shelf!

this is the book i am currently reading by elizabeth gilbert. its a entertaining autobiography by a american woman who divorces her husband and spends a year traveling to italy, india and indonesia in search of the meaning of her life. and enjoying the fruits of each country in this order

italy – eat
india – pray
indonesia – ultimately she finds love there.

lovely book half way through it.

the other non fictional book i am reading is called

successful property letting by david lawrenson – a guide by this successfull property developer and landlord. the book is really interesting and he has set it out and written it interestingly and easy to understand

captain corellis mandolin, but i have been reading a book called life changing weightloss by amanda hamilton and sandy newbigging – i am 3/4 of the way through and its pretty good. its re-inspiring me on a new healthy way of eating. as well as looking at the root causes of why i eat to much and how to resolve that.

i also been reading pretty much all week a book called ulitmate interview by lindsey williams (i think) – it is basically telling u tips on how to handle the interview but the best bit is that it gives u potential questions the interviewer might ask but also gives u typical answers u can give. and its all relavant to the job u are in. so if u in sales, there is sales questions and sales related answers, if ur in administration, management, technical, marketing, graduate, etc etc
really good book, i bought and started reading this book because i had a interview today, and this book helped me to prepare for potential questions amongst other things. i only did the interview today, and will find out on monday if i go through to the 2nd interview or not. hopefully i will, but if not i will certainly be using this book again.

I have many books that I have yet to read or only began reading. I do love reading once I get into a book, I’ve just been unmotivated overall lately, and this is one of the many things I do not do when I’m down.

my bookshelf today, as it was a total state, books and other nik naks all over the place, just a total mess.

now all books are organised and in sections according to fiction and non fiction. and the non fiction section is divided into the various subjects, so i can easily find what book i am looking for. and i can see every single book, whereas before i had books hidden behind books and i didnt know what i had anymore

now that it is organised i can see what i have, and decided what i want to read.

there are some that i have read, and wouldnt mind reading again, but there are a lot i have bought and never ever read, and actually forgot about them.

so glad i did this, and looking forward to renewing my love for reading

I’ve been reading sporadicly over the past couple years and I still have quite a few books I haven’t finished. Although, I have only two chapters (counting the epilogue) left on my current book. It doesn’t help that I want more books to read. I should put all the books I haven’t read yet in a pile, so it’ll bug me to the point where I’ll have to read them in order to put them back. It would still take me a couple months to get through them though, since I’m clearly not the fastest reader in the world. The fastest I’ve read one of the books in my current collection was 2 weeks. And that’s only because I was really into it.

• Dune
• The Elegant Universe
• How to Change The World
• Critical Thinking

I’m well on my way to finishing the Quabbin book, I’ve begun to read at night before bed again, this is a good thing, and the desired result of my goal. Mission accomplished.

Nearly complete. I’ve got a few books on the way, but I can honestly say there isn’t much in my bookcase I want to read. There are books I should read, just to know, but I believe I’ve nearly completed this goal.

Reading instead of TV before bed. I watch tv on the weekends… and read during the week. It’s great because It puts me to sleep better than tv.
