Hello gals and guys! Tuesday was my son's last day of school, so we've been taking the rest of this week easy. I was prepared for everyone to sleep in on Saturday morning until we got an early morning tornado warning. There is nothing like starting your morning at 6:30 a.m. scrunched up with your kids between a wall and a stairwell.
This week, I read
The Almost Sisters by Joshilyn Jackson,
The Stars Are Fire by Anita Shreve,
Everybody's Son by Thrity Umrigar, and
Fit to Burst by Rachel Jankovic. I had one of those weeks where I just wanted to read, so I did! I may regret that now that I need to catch up on everything else...

I'm not reading anything this second since I'm trying to get ready for a work trip on Wednesday. Once I'm on the plane though, I will have plenty to choose from. I'm packing
The Jane Austen Project, News of the World, Daring To Drive, and
The Women in the Castle. Any suggestions for which book I should start with?
What are you reading this week?
I really want to read Almost Sisters... I'll have to bump it up to the top of my TBR- but I have so many other books to get through!
ReplyDeleteAlmost Sisters sounds very intriguing. I hope you enjoy your books this week!
ReplyDeleteMy It's Monday! What Are You Reading? post.
News of the World, I say. It's got everything a good story should have, and it's about the right length for a trip.

I like the idea of dropping everything and just reading. I hope to do that soon. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading News of the World right now, but I'm only about 30 pages in. So far, I'm intrigued! It's a short book, but I'm not flying through it. I mention that depending on the length of your flight - could be too short or could be just right!
ReplyDeleteI have had my eye on The Jane Austen Project. Will be interested to hear your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteOh. I'm adding The Jane Austen Project to my wishlist. It's been a busy week with a cracked toilet, day camp, and paperwork for cross country. Come see what I'm reading
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about Daring to Drive, I think I'll have to look for that one!
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to reading more about Almost Sisters. Have a great trip.
ReplyDeleteWow, great reading last week - funny that they all had red covers! lol I LOVED Everybody's Son - I reviewed it for Shelf Awareness. Such a good book.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed The Women in the Castle & got to meet & spend time with the author in May!
Enjoy your trip - I love reading time on planes - there's nothing else to get in your way or distract you!

I like your selection of books. Nice.
ReplyDeleteI reserved The Jane Austen project from my library. I'm really looking forward to reading it. It sounds like a great book.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited about The Almost Sisters too and a week of reading a lot sounds fantastic. Lately, I've been much more in the mood to read than to blog :)
