It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? (11/13/17)

Hello bookish friends!
Am I the only one who is having a mild meltdown at the fact that Thanksgiving is next week, the month is almost over, and that means that Christmas and New Year are right around the corner? I set a goal to read 120 books this year, to keep things calm and simple, and I might actually not hit that. It’s been a great year so far, just not quite a great one for reading.
The good news is that I’m not super worried about it. If I’ve been slacking off on blogging as much as I usually do, it’s because I was burnt out and needed a break. Blogging is so fun, and so rewarding, but it’s also exhausting. Especially when you have a full time job on top of it. So, if I disappear once in a while, you’ll understand.
Anyway enough rambling, here’s what I’m reading this week.

I’ve been on an audiobook binge the last few months, mainly because my attention span has been really all over the place. I’ll find myself picking up a new book to read, only to set it down and move on to something else. Audiobooks help because I can listen to them at work and on the commute, so I’m more likely to finish them! Which is why I decided to do a re-read of In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan. Hiddensee was for a tour, and unfortunately not all I hoped for. However, Snow & Rose was also for a tour and absolutely wonderful! I’ve been all over the place in terms of reading material lately, and I’m not even sorry.

I have a long list of pending library audiobook holds, and Furthermore was next up in the queue. So far I’m enchanted by it! Let’s hope that it keeps its whimsical nature and plucky heroine alive.

I’ve been eyeing this book for a while now, and I’m in an MG mood all of the sudden, so this will probably be next! It sounds adorable, and has amazing ratings.


That’s it for me! What are you reading?
