13/52: X - Volume 3 by CLAMP (which I only recently found out is a collective of all female artists and writers: Satsuki Igarashi, Mokona, Tskubaki Nekoi, Nanase Ohkawa). And yes, I took a break this week with a graphic novel. #52books #CLAMP #x #x/1999 #x1999 #xjapan #manga #anime #52books52weeks #52bookschallenge #photoshopart #digitalart #photoshop #neonlights #self #selfie #selfportrait #quote #bookstagram #book📖 #bookstagrammer

"TAJEMNICE KAPLICY SYKSTYŃSKIEJ"

To nie pierwsza ani nie ostatnia książka, którą przeczytałam w 2020, ale zdecydowanie jedna z lepszych jakie w ogóle udało mi się kiedykolwiek trzymać w rękach. Sprawnie i barwnie nakreślone życie i twórczość genialnego (po lekturze też tak bedziecie się o nim wyrażać, jestem pewna) Michała Anioła oraz wnikliwa analiza jego największych dzieł... Dlaczego Mojżesz ma rogi? Dlaczego lekarze są w szoku gdy patrzą na sklepienie kaplicy? Jak podpisał sie DaVinci? Tajemnicze znaki i liczby, które można zauważyć po dokładniejszym oczyszczeniu fresków...

Książka ta nie daje o sobie zapomnieć długo po jej przeczytaniu. Chęć sprawdzania wszystkich niuansów wyczytanych z jej stron była ogromna. Polecam i Wam dłużej sie nie zastanawiać i jak najszybciej sięgnąć po tę pozycję...

Życzę Wam Szczęśliwego Nowego Roku

How to read more

When I decided I would try (not try, I will make it this year) to do the "52 books challenge" I started reading tips and tricks to make it happen.

For everyone taking reading like a kind of mental fitness, artist and writer Austin Kleon has written a list of tips to stick to our 2015 reading promises. 

This is what he recommends: 

Throw your phone in the ocean. (Or, keep it in airplane mode.)

Carry a book with you at all times.

Have another book ready before you finish the one you’re reading. (Make a stack of books to-read or load up your eReader.)

If you aren’t enjoying a book or learning from it, stop reading it immediately. (Flinging it across the room helps give closure.)

Schedule 1 hour of non-fiction reading during the day. (Commutes, lunch breaks, and any contained period of idle time work well.)

Go to bed 1 hour early and read fiction. (It will help you sleep.)

Keep a reading log and share your favorite books with others. (They will send you even more books to read.)

Following these tricks and the "Nancy Pearl's Rule of 50" for dropping a bad book which tells you to read the first 50 pages and if you are not engaged or you don't like it yet, just drop it like it's hot, will hopefully help me make it.
