I went through a bit of a reading slump this month and I'm not really sure why. Part of it could be I started taking classes at the local tech school (just 2) and they're a lot of writing, so I had to focus more on that, but I'm not sure if that's it. When the month first started, I FLEW through "First Grave on the Right" by Darynda Jones (read my review here) and absolutely loved it, but then struggled to finish even the ones I'd started in January. I really enjoyed all of them, but I just struggled to actually sit down and read them, even though I had plenty of time. I would find my self web surfing instead of reading, even if the book was right there. Oh well, maybe March will be better.

The Secret Life of a Book Blogger
Hey everybody! I saw this on The Sapphire's wonderful blog and she invited other book blogs to do the same, so here it goes!
How long have you been a blogger?
I've had a blog for almost 3 years now, but it was very touch and go and not book-related until very recently (Nov of 2015). I've been much more consistent since I've changed to a book blog and I hope it gets better as I continue!
At what point do you think you will stop?
I don't think anyone in the Book Blogger community ever wants to stop book blogging, but life gets in the way and other things become more important, so they quit due to time restraints. Hopefully, I never reach that point, but if I do, I don't think I'll be sad that I stopped.

Pride & Prejudice & Zombies
From Goodreads: “It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.”
So begins Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, an expanded edition of the beloved Jane Austen novel featuring all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie mayhem. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton—and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she’s soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers—and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield. Can Elizabeth vanquish the spawn of Satan? And overcome the social prejudices of the class-conscious landed gentry? Complete with romance, heartbreak, swordfights, cannibalism, and thousands of rotting corpses, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies transforms a masterpiece of world literature into something you’d actually want to read.

So I’ve heard about Thrift Books from a few different people and decided to give them a try.
