  • I excitedly trawl through all of my emails when I get home every day but they are mostly just newsletters and spam. However, it makes it worth while when the odd winning one pops up every now and then.

    However, I have become slightly concerned with my obsessive Goodreads entering though :) I've absolutely loads of my own books at home that I haven't yet read, though I still feel the need to keep entering more Goodreads giveaways. The 3 I have won, have all been really good so I think that by not entering I may be missing out on ones I wouldn't usually buy. Like I said, this obsessive behaviour is starting to concern me.:eek:
  • I have my emails as notifications on my phone !!! I try not to get obsessive and just let it be fun

    Yes I'm guilty of that too, constantly checking my phone for email. I am trying very hard to curb the urge to check all the time.....but deleting 400+ junk emails a day is hard work too!!
