A slow reader


It occurs to me that as I'm something of a slow reader, this blog may appear a little lost and unloved at times. Which I think is fine, as long as people know I will be here with a review as soon as. Ha! I say "people" as if anyone was reading this. I'm sure you're not, but I hope all the same. Just imagine me, sitting quietly, book in hand, lips moving slowly, hehe. Don't think that I've wandered off completely...unless, say, a month goes by without a review. At that point, please call the emergency services as my TBR pile may well have fallen on me.

I did think about doing some retrospective reviews, I've been reading Fantasy novels for a good 20 years, and have shelves overflowing with them, but after mulling it over I really want this to be a place for those fresh "just finished, wow!" or indeed, "just binned it, bloody awful" thoughts.

What I will do though, in-between reviews, is post some of what's coming up as I slowly tackle the mountain on my bedside table..

So, at the moment, closest to the top of the pile I have:

Squee!
Squee!

bit unsure...
Squee! x10












































(..and if anyone can talk me through aligning images on bloody Blogger...without adding captions...that would be fabulous....)

  1. Looks like a good haul ahead of you. Don't worry about reading slowly either, I'm exactly the same - takes me ages to get through anything these days.

    Aligning images in Blogger is an absolute pain. Do you want to align a bunch of images together on the same line?

    1. Hi Jamie,
      I'd like to get 3 medium sized images on the same line...but...for the life of me..I can't get Blogger to do it. Adding captions puts them on the same line, but..I dun want captions! It's turned into a completely unreasonable and overblown battle of wills. And I lost.

  2. For what it's worth, I'm reading! As for aligning images with Blogger, that's a nightmare. You don't have to add captions though, you can just change the alignment though it's fiddly and for some reason three pics in a row never seems to work as you want it to :-(

    1. Hello! It's worth heaps! thank you :) :)
      So far I'm finding 3 pics to be impossible, but you're doing better than me as I can't even align 2 without the captions! If I set them to align left they just sit on new lines...mocking me....
