One thing that I've heard (and said) repeatedly is, "I'm so behind on reviews!" Usually soon after comes a reading slump.Before you get to that point, I suggest you take a little ME time.
Some of you may be wondering the reason for this post and its timing. Well, if you look at my archives this month, you'll not find many posts. The reason for this being that I've taken some ME time this July.
Summer is quickly unwinding for me, and I decided to devote a little time to myself and the people I love most (my family and my fiance).
That said, I have been reading, and there will be reviews posted soon. However, I decided it better to post the reviews on my own time rather than enforce deadlines upon myself (just so you know publicists don't send deadlines with ARCs because they understand that we reviewers also attend school or work; and for that, I thank them kindly).
I hope I haven't disappointed anyone with my lack of posting this month. I figured that rather than getting myself in a reading slump, and possibly not enjoying blogging (which I absolutely LOVE), I should spend the remainder of my summer having fun, sleeping in, and going with the flow.
After this weekend, I will be back to regularly scheduling posts and reviews (not that I ever write more than 4 a month) and of course, commenting on YOUR blogs!
Until then, I think I'll go bowling and reward myself with some cheesecake!

Enjoy!
I know exactly how you feel! This is why Saturdays are my free days off from my blog.
I'm not mad at ya! Girl you go on and eat your cheesecake! Better yet I'll join you with a strawberry pound cake. LOL!
That's actually a pretty good idea. And I've actually been planning to do that...next month. I have a bunch of stuff going so I've been scheduling everything for next month and then I won't have to be on my site for days, but it'll keep going for my visitors. Yay for scheduling!
I'm saving all my 'me' time for later in the year. During the Christmas season I work 12hour days, 7 days a week. STRESSFUL. So I completely understand needing some 'me' time! I hope you enjoy your summer days with your family and fiance.
