    I'm getting into journaling coming from mixed media/art journaling - don't dismiss how much art and design principle goes into creating nice looking collage! There's more to it than just gluing things down, and we all start by getting ideas from others! I'm thinking of doing more for my reading tracking next year - this year I just wrote what books I was reading on a monthly page and now I'm feeling like I want more. So thanks for this great walk-through. And yes, I am totally scoping out your TBR page - you've got some great picks on there! And you seem like me, willing to read any genre with a good story 😊 Ooooh but I love series!! I love getting and staying in a world! Love your idea of a series tracker. I need to also have an author tracker for authors I love and want to keep reading more of. I just started Mistborn, already enjoying his style. HAHAHA love you're idea of *slowly* reading Song of Ice and Fire series!! I sadly got into reading it right before the third book was released, well before the shows were announced, so I'm impatiently waiting but agree, not hopeful anymore. You'll probably want to stop after Children of Dune - it gets very strange after that and very hard to read.

    • @guessimbeth

      Omg thank you so much! The collage copying validation feels good 😅 I really wish I was better at reading series (this year is not going as well as I hoped). But it is what it is I guess. I hope you enjoy Mistborn. I really enjoyed the series (book two was my favourite) and good to know about dune 😅😅 I’ll keep that in mind when I finish children of duen

    • @guessimbeth
      @guessimbeth 24 дні тому

      What a great question! I’ve definitely had multiple experiences like this where I reread favourites only to discover that they aren’t favourites anymore. While some of those other books have made me regretful, I don’t think I regret rereading The Magicians. I think that specifically for this book, my critiques allow me to better understand how I’ve grown as a reader and as a reviewer. Will I miss that excitement when I think about this book? Yeah. But I can remember how formative it was for me at a time. Thank you so much for asking this! 😊

    I think "Good Omens" is quite good because Sheen and Tennant are great, each on their own, but together they rock. You can only imagine what that duo could have achieved with an actual good story, and that's all I need to say about Gaiman hahahaha. BTW, this is perhaps the only channel I have found that actually focus on the books, or balances both sides of this endeavour (reading/crafting), which I think is great. Perhaps having the books around when possible or displaying the covers could be nice.

      Thank you! I’ve based my lettering on the font Warmesty. When I was starting, I just looked at the font, traced out the words with pencil, and went over them in a marker. It took some time before I was confident enough to write without the pencil guidelines, but eventually practice becomes muscle memory. Hope that helped 😊
