      Naps are such a happy thing (and so necessary sometimes)!

    Oh boy yes, a long and tiring week for me too!

    I still haven't read anything by Joyce Carol Oates, but I have one of hers now so I should be able to fix that. I hear she's very good?

      It seems that a lot of people had a long week!

      This is my first time reading Oates. She's one of those authors I can't believe I haven't read before!

    I've not posted for a week and it seems like ages. I like visiting the blogs and seeing what everyone has got though. Your list is new and nice!

      Why don't we appreciate naps when we are kids and are able to have them all the time?!?

      I think readathoning should always be followed with napathoning. :)

    Mmm a nap is so tempting!

    Have a great reading week (after that nap of course)

    I wanted to participate in the readathon this past week, but with having just got a new puppy, I knew I wouldn't be able to.

    Hope you have a great week and get in your naps!!!

    I am interested in your thoughts on We Were The Mulvaneys. I saw this title a few years back but hesitated to pick it up. Hope you enjoy the rest of your week.

    I've been wanting to try Joyce Carol Oates, too. I almost bought her memoir about losing her husband suddenly, but I was afraid it would be really depressing. I may still pick it up.

      That does sound like it would be a tough read. There are so many writers I still haven't read!!

    Omgosh, a nap sounds wonderful right now! I finally finished two papers so I think I can treat myself to one :)

      You definitely deserve a nap! Maybe you should have two naps (you did finish two papers....).

    I understand all the exhaustion. I think it's going to take me a while to recover from Saturday's readathon ;) What a great time though! I hope you're enjoying that Oates, that's one of my faves!
