Happy Black Friday!! What are you reading?

What do you think so far? Is it for any of the challenges or just fun? Are you planning on doing/have already done any shopping today? How about tomorrow to support' small business Saturday'?

Re: Happy Black Friday!! What are you reading?

  • At the moment nothing but I have HP 7 to reread on my iPad and the bronze horseman book to bring to Mexico tomorrow morning for our annual 2 week trip there. I started and enjoyed bronze horseman a while ago but never finished it so I bought the paperback last week to bring in vacay.

  • I'm reading Lover Awakened (BDB#3) and starting to really enjoy it, about 50% done. It is number 75 of my goal of 75! I did some online shopping this morning but only for cloth diapers and maternity clothes. I will probably not do any shopping tomorrow as we have a jam packed day with family.

  • I am about 71% through A Clash of Kings.  I like it but it seems like I have been reading it forever!  I'm also reading Perfect, a Pretty Little Liars book.  I'm also enjoying it and will probably finish it today or tomorrow.

  • I'm not reading anything right now and that feels weird, but I feel like there is much to do. If I pick up a new book I'll get too distracted.

  • I just finished Quiet by Susan Cain, #44 for the year, I'm going to start Where she Went now. Definately enjoying my day off today! I didn't do any shopping today, I've been online shopping a lot this week and totally prefer to do that over going to any stores during this time of year unless I absolutely have to. We might go out to breakfast tomorrow morning at a local place, and I need to pick up dry cleaning at the local cleaners (does that even count) other than that I don't know.

  • I'm about 3/4 of the way through NOS4A2, and I like it a lot.  That counts as Christmas reading, right?  ;)

  • I started _Shadow and Bone_ a few days ago.  Then got busy.  Will hopefully get back to it this weekend.

    I am going to an amazing handmade craft fair.  (not tacky grandma stuff!)  I hope I don't spend a fortune.  ;)

    We hope to squeeze out a few extra sales this weekend for Small Business Saturday.   :)

  • Reading Just One Year and hoping to get through most of it today while in alone at work. (I'm bad!)
    Listening to Code Name Verity.
    Both are quality!

  • Still listening to Orange is the New Black, its good as an audiobook.  I'm halfway through The Power of Why by Amanda Lang but I have to return it to the library now.  I'm also reading Dune by Frank Herbert, I'm about a third through and I'm really enjoying it.  I may start Nora Roberts Sea Swept later on today if I don't end up putting up the Christmas tree.

    As for shopping, I went online already.  Canadian retailers have decided to jump on the bandwagon and offer Black Friday deals, the online deals are excellent and I didn't even have to get out of my pajamas.

  • I just finished Neverwhere (#45 for the year).  While reading I wasn't enjoying it as much as I expected to, but now that I've finished I ended up enjoying it more overall than I would have expected to when I was in the middle of it.  If any of that makes sense, haha!  It does in my head anyway.  

    In conclusion, I did end up liking it quite a bit and I'm glad I read it.  I'll definitely go on to read another NG book.  

    I'm not sure what I'm going to start next.  Maybe Ender's Game.  Or Losing Hope.

  • I'm 27% through Blood Brothers by Nora Roberts. It's book one in the Sign of Seven trilogy. I'm really liking it so far. Only a bit spooked out lol.

  • I'm listening to Tribute by Nora Roberts (And loving it!).  I'm reading Cooked by Michael Pollan- it's good but slow, and Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell and can't put it down!  They are numbers 115-117 for the year.

    I've done a little shopping on the internet and plan on shopping local next weekend as our neighborhood village is having a big holiday party/sales.

  • I finished Shades of Gray by Andy Holloway last night. It was just okay.  I haven't started it yet but I just downloaded The Transfer by Veronica Roth this morning (I had it on hold at the library).

    I finished Silver Linings Playbook (#60) and started Reconstructing Amelia.  SLP was good.  You would probably hate it if you didn't like football.  I found the look inside Pat's head very interesting.

    I'm not very far into Reconstructing Amelia but it's only OK so far.  I don't like the changing perspective, but the story seems interesting.

     

    ETA: I got most of my shopping done online today.

  • Oliver Twist by Charles Dickins, just for fun.  I don't have a whole lot of time to read, though. :(

    http://cheezburger.com/133637 I did go out to buy something today (in Canada) because it was basically half price and it was busy out there, but nothing like the malls and Walmarts of 'Murica.

  • I just started Legend. It's too early to give an opinion.

  • I am reading Without You: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and the Musical Rent by Anthony Rapp.  I'm LOVING it!  It is 44/52 for the year... gotta get cracking if I want to meet my goal!

    I did a little bit of online BF shopping today, but nothing major.
