I’m glad you are enjoying it – I’d love to read a review.

I am exactly like you – my mood dictates my reading. If I set up rules or restrictions for myself, I would definitely rebel, maybe even for the sake of rebelling. So for now I just go with the flow and read whatever my mood dictates.

I love making lists, and I like working out rotation systems so I get through all sorts of different books, but I have a terrible time sticking to them. I somehow managed to alternate between TBR books and library books for most of last year, but I’m still not too sure how that happened.

If we didn’t have company in town all week, I’m sure he’d be spending all his spare time playing. :-) I’ve played both Sims 1 and 2. I don’t play too often though because each time I do, I become obsessed and it’s hard for me to pull myself away. It’s best if I don’t play at all, I think. LOL

Your game plan for getting through your TBR stacks sounds like a good one. I am not sure which books have been on my shelves the longest. I didn’t start keeping track of “in” dates until a couple of years ago.

Have a great week and enjoy Sims!

She then spent 2 hours showing me Sims 2 — and complaining how badly she wants Sims 3.

While it is not book related, I would LOVE for you to do a Sims 3 review for those of us who are too ancient to relate to this “game” (not sure what to call it – obsession?) in the hopes that perhaps we can appreciate this 21st century phenomenon.

The longest plan I’ve ever stuck to was last year. I did read a lot and I did get a lot accomplished, but after a couple of months it started to kill me. I actually enjoy planning out such things. In that way, I’m a huge geek. I just don’t have follow through. :) Good luck on your plans, though. Since you’ll be rotating throughout your piles, maybe you won’t rebel. You won’t ever work on one pile long enough.

Enjoy your Sims 3. I call the female character with the bright red Chrysler 300. LOL!

As soon as I make a plan, I struggle like someone just locked me in a straight jacket. They’re our own plans! You’d think we’d like them! :-)

Hopefully your review/library/TBR cycle sounds like it should work okay, as long as you have ample numbers in each pile so you can find something within the right category to fit your reading mood. And if you get off cycle, no worries! Read what you want, and then use the list to help narrow your choices when you’re being indecisive. :)

I love making lists and reading plans, but when it comes to sticking to them, well, that’s another story.

Enjoy The Sims :D
