For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
When you travel, how many books do you bring with you? Has this changed since the arrival of ebooks?
When I travel for a week, I usually carry 4-5 books and each book is more than 400 pages. I do take a mixed genres of books. I don't really pressurize myself to read when I am in a vacation. I read as and when I really wish to. AS I don't own an e-reader, arrival of ebooks have not affected my carrying books in anyway! Maybe someday...

I always carry more than I need to!
I try and take a book for every 4 days or so :)
I usually take 1-2 books now, seeing as I'm most likely going to be out and about rather than reading. I brought 6 books with me on my last trip to Texas, though.
My BTT explains why I want an e-reader now. :(
I reduce a stack of about 10 books to 2 trade paperbacks and Kindle when I fly to Asia. The length of the trip is key to how many hard copies I'm bringing. I almost never use my Kindle when I'm not traveling.
I try to choose light weight paperbacks so I can shove a few extras into the suitcase.
