This week, D finished his swim lessons and we celebrated my sister's birthday. On Sunday, we went to my childhood church, where my husband filled in as the preacher and I sang "The Prayer" with a friend for the special music.
Alright, I know, enough is enough. It's time to talk about books!
I finished Murder on the Orient Express after a month or so of listening during my commute. With my eyes, I read The Shore and am a little more than halfway through The Last Bookaneer.
On deck for this week, I have Saint Mazie from the library and will be picking something from my shelves. I'm thinking I might pick Susan Cain's Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Won't Stop Talking.
What are you reading this week?
Quiet is a good one! Very informative, and if you yourself ever feel like an introvert, it's great to read it so as not to feel alone with it!
ReplyDeleteI started it last night and it is really fascinating. I feel like I will learn a lot!
DeleteI really want to read Quiet, but I just haven't made it a priority yet. I constantly feel like I have to explain my tendencies as an introvert, so I can't wait to get some backup.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm somewhere on the border between extrovert and introvert, but I hope reading this will help me understand my personality a bit better!
DeleteI've had Quiet on my shelves for a ridiculous amount of time. So long, in fact, that I bought it for my Kindle too because I forgot that I already own it. DUH, Jen! ;)
ReplyDeleteI hope you like Saint Mazie, I've heard good things!
Haha, that sounds like something I would do too! I think that's why I keep my tbr books in their own spot. Hopefully (and that's a big hopefully) that will prevent me from getting multiples!
DeleteOoh, Quiet is really fantastic, and Saint Mazie is a really fun summer read!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that! I figure it will be a good balance between fiction and nonfiction this week.
DeleteQuiet is amazing and so life-affirming! I read The Last Bookaneer last week. I'm curious to hear what you think about it. Book pirates is such a great premise!
ReplyDeleteI used to joke that it was just me being an old lady that made me prefer a few friends over or a good book to going out, but now I'm thinking maybe I'm just an introvert! I think it will be an important read for me.
