Whatever You Can Still Betray

I started this blog to share my extraordinary experiences in the dream world. I am a lucid dreamer and most of my dreams feature weird but fantastic situations that I always look forward to them whenever it is time to sleep at night. However, much as I want to share these dreams, I felt quite vulnerable in sharing them with a worldwide audience. So I backed out and continued writing in my dream journal where I have been writing faithfully for the last seven or so years.

After that first attempt, I tried again - now wanting to share my thoughts, words and experiences here in the "real" world. But then, this proved to be a lost cause since I'm also quite unsure about sharing my innermost being with the rest of humanity.

So I let the blog idea rest for a while.

The blog that is alive and kicking today, Whatever You Can Still Betray, was founded in June 2010.

It features:

fiction books particularly in Young Adult and Paranormal/Fantasy genres. I mainly share the books that so, so love and I sometimes write reviews about the books that I read. I also introduce and feature books that are up-and-coming.

anime and manga that I happen to love - what can I say, I'm an otaku.

movies that I have seen in theaters or in DVDs though this would be far-between since I do not go to the theater much. Furthermore, I post about TV series that I am gaga about - these TV series are usually Asian ones, particularly Korean, Chinese and Japanese.

random things, people, causes and events that I feel passionate about - this blog is, after all, entitled "whatever you can still betray".

Now you know a little bit about this blog. And oh! In case you are wondering, I got my title from one of John LeCarre's quotes: "Love is whatever you can still betray".

TBR Intervention Challenge

I'm going to take this opportunity to do some shameless plugging/promoting...

April @ Books4Juliet, Dani @ Refracted Light and I @ Whatever You Can Still Betray are hosting a weekly challenge/hop that would get us through our TBR Piles!

The goal of this challenge is to help each other (fellow readers and bloggers) manage our enormous and constantly growing TBR (To-Be-Read) List. The rules are simple and everyone is encouraged to participate. It does not force you to commit to more than what you can manage to read in a week or so, but participants are encouraged to read at least one book within a week. You are free to choose the book you want to read and commit to this challenge. You may post your entry every Saturday, at the frequency of your choice--EVERY WEEK or EVERY TWO WEEKS. However, we will sponsor this event regularly every Saturday.


For more information, please follow this link: http://whateveryoucanstillbetray.blogsp ... n-tbr.html

Hoping to see you there!
