Re: Weekened Reading

  • I read about half of A Bend in the Road by Nicholas Sparks and read Surrender to Sultry (loved it!).

  • I read about 120 pages of Just One Day and finished Lemon Meringue Pie Murder. It was light and fun and just what I needed before jumping into Allegiant.

  • I read a couple of chapters of BDB #5. I need to pick it up though because like all of my library holds came in at once and if I don't get to them I go back to the end of the hold list, which for a couple is like 70 people.

  • Finished Hell House last night.  I know this might not be popular...but I didn't really like it.  I just couldn't really get into it that much so it didn't creep me out like I thought it would.  Picked up Just One Year yesterday, so I will be starting that today.

  • Like, nothing.
    All I wanted to do all weekend was curl up on the couch with a blanket and cup of tea and read, but I did none of that at all.  :( 
    I read maybe two chapters of The Fiery Cross, and that's it.
  • I read the entire SIgn of Seven trilogy this weekend.

  • I finished Parasite by Mira Grant and got through about half of Sister Mother Husband Dog by Delia Ephron.

  • Started and finished The Dragon Reborn (#3 in Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan). Totally slacked off on Alligent and Under the Dome...
    ~E~
  • I finished Sultry with a Twist.  Loved it!  I started Neverwhere but didn't get that far into it.  I caught up on stuff on my DVR and drank too much wine so I still think the weekend was a win!

  • I finished Under the Dome, and started The Final Cut by Catherine Coulter and JT Elison.
  • Despite a really really busy weekend, I read a good chunk of Sharp Objects. Love it!! The Red Sox being in the World Series has been giving me a lot of reading time because it's all DH wants to watch.

  • I read some of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and I started Allegiant.  I had a very busy weekend with the world series, the patriots game and doing tequila shots and Irish bar bombs with my coworkers.

    I finished The Exiled Queen by Cinda Williams Chima and started The Grey Wolf Throne.

    I need to reread Insurgent and then start on Allegiant, but I am addicted to the Seven Realms series at the moment!

  • Oh, I read a little bit of The Demon King this weekend too.  Not a lot though.  I keep trying but it hasn't grabbed me as of yet.

  • I finished listening to Sharp Objects, and then really didn't do anything else. We had a pretty busy weekend so I'm hoping to make up some ground this week while DH is out of town. I just got the audio of Allegiant from the library and I'm planning to listen to it starting tomorrow.

  • I read a little more of The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland and am still hating it. It's never taken me SO long to read a book with less than 200 pages. UGH.

    I also started Gone Girl yesteray. I'm not that far in so I don't have an opinion on it yet.

    I felt the same way about this one.  It took me forever to read it and I felt no reward when done.

  • I finished my Nancy Drew book and got through more than half of Donald Driver's book.  I really wanted to finish but DD was sick all weekend and DH worked so I was just too exhausted to read.

  • I didn't read anything this weekend. :(

    I brought my nook with me to work so I could read while I pump and the battery is dead! The book I'm reading is a PDF review copy so I can't even read it on my phone.

  • I didn't get much time to read over the weekend.  I got about 30% of Allegiant done and that is it.

  • I read Bitten by Kelley Armstrong. I liked her writing style, but I wasn't in love with the story.

  • I finished Hourglass by Myra McEntire and really liked it!
    Started in earnest on The Leopard Tree (a free kindle book that's pretty good.)
    Read just a few pages of my hard copy book, The Golem and the Jinni. Good but the logistics of holding a baby & a big book were not lining up!

  • I binge read the second half of Allegiant yesterday and now I can finally read the spoiler threads! Woot!
    I also started Lexicon by Max Barry after Laini Taylor was raving about it on twitter. Pretty good so far. This is probably a good pick for fans of Ready Player One and Mr. Penumbra's.

  • I finished Sharp Objects. It was my least favorite of hers but still very good! I started The Round House by Louise Erdrich. I'm liking it so far. She's such a great writer.

  • Read maybe 5 chapters of Neverwhere. I need to finish and move on since I have so many library books here! oops.

  • I finished listening to The Rose Garden, and then started listening to Bertie Plays the Blues.  I'm about halfway through Allegiant, which I have to finish by Wednesday so I can return it.
