i thought about joining the "Goodreads" community several times.. but i don´t know..
i think its fun..
can you give me a recommendation or your opinion about goodreads ?
do you like brandnew books or secondhand books more ?
I really like goodreads! A lot of people from tumblr are on it. I mainly use it to keep track of the books I want to read (I would completely forget if it wasn’t for goodreads) and to read reviews. I really like and I’d definitely recommend it!
I like finding old books at secondhand bookstores but sometimes I like a brand new copy as well.
YA books where music plays a big role.
I made a John Green themed cootie catcher. It’s not very practical since it takes a lot longer to spell out the names of his books instead of just spelling colours. The general idea is to ask a yes/no questions about your future and it will answer cryptically. I asked how my summer was going to be and it said “Things never happen the way you imagine them.” The quotes used as fortunes were paraphrased and you can see them all here. Now that I’ve done this it seems sort of silly, especially since I am not artistic and have such messy writing.
New books! You can read more here.
