How are you all doing?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;m taking reading a bit slowly these days. This is because I don&#8217;t have many review copies that need to be immediately finished and I&#8217;m trying to get some studying done.<\/p>\n<p>If you guys didn&#8217;t know, I read multiple books at a time. Earlier it used to be because I was already reading a physical book, ebook and an audiobook but now, it is more because I can&#8217;t seem to finish a book unless I force myself too. I quickly lose interest in a book and due to this, I have 7 unfinished books at the moment. I decided to share these with you today so let&#8217;s get started-<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><b><span style=\"color:#000080;\">1. A Game Of Thrones by George R.R Martin<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/litreactor.com\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/books\/game-of-thrones-book.jpg\" width=\"216\" height=\"329\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Progress:<\/b> 340\/881 pages read<\/p>\n<p>I started this book about a month ago and I&#8217;m actually happy with how much progress I&#8217;ve made. While this book isn&#8217;t book, it not very fast paced either. I think the only problem is that after watching the show, the book seems less exciting. Despite this, I am enjoying reading it.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color:#000080;\"><b>2. Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/tse4.mm.bing.net\/th?id=OIP.lfTh2UjdaD05OdITk-YfKwDTEs&amp;pid=15.1&amp;P=0&amp;w=300&amp;h=300\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Progress:<\/b> 68\/836 pages read<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m finally re-reading Gone With the Wind and this time, I&#8217;m listening it on audio. This gigantic book is going to take me a lot of time to finish so I&#8217;m not even trying to rush it. The audiobook is really good despite me being unable to understand some words because of the accents.<\/p>\n<h3><b><span style=\"color:#000080;\">3. A Study In Scarlet by Arthur Conan Doyle <\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/d.gr-assets.com\/books\/1320490450l\/3581.jpg\" width=\"221\" height=\"364\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Progress:<\/b> 60\/120 pages read<\/p>\n<p>This is also a re-read. The problem with me reading classics is that I&#8217;m only able to read them when the mood strikes and I lose attention towards them soon after that. I am enjoying reading this book and it is at a good pace so hopefully, I&#8217;ll finish it this month.<\/p>\n<h3><b><span style=\"color:#000080;\">4. The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/bakertaylor\/covers\/a\/anne-frank-the-diary-of-a-young-girl\/9780553296983_custom-ed84c8c0711821bd2740ad0d64c5ff57c46455b8-s6-c30.jpg\" width=\"215\" height=\"357\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Progress:<\/b> 110\/299 pages read<\/p>\n<p>Another re-read. This book deserved to be read by me atleast one more time. It feels good to be back to Anne&#8217;s head again. This book is short so I hope I finish it soon.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color:#000080;\"><b>5. The Bronze Horseman by Paulina Simons<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/consoporte.com\/vpn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017-03\/1327921996l\/83144\/the-bronze-horseman.jpg\" width=\"214\" height=\"326\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Progress:<\/b> 126\/637 pages read<\/p>\n<p>I started this book only a week back. I&#8217;ve heard very mixed reviews about this book so I decided to finally read it and see for myself.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color:#000080;\"><b>6. Untouchable by Mulk Raj Anand<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/09\/3541d-untouchable.jpg\" width=\"216\" height=\"339\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Progress:<\/b> 96\/148 pages read<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m very close to finishing this book and I really hope I do so soon. The writing of this book is very rich so it makes for a slow read. Still, this is a remarkable book and I want to see how it ends.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><i><b>I need some serious motivation to finish these books.
