Happy Friday! What are you reading?
How do you like it so far? Is it for any of the challenges or just fun?

Re: Happy Friday! What are you reading?
Just finished Since You've Been Gone last night. Starting Sixth Grave on the Edge today. It will be #53 for the year.
I have too many on the go! I am reading Daughter of Smoke and Bone, Ruthless, Lover Mine and Red Lily. I am enjoying them all and having a hard time deciding which one to pick up when I have a few minutes to read!
Im not reading anything else currently during other times as I keep getting distracted too easily.
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”

Listening to The Third Angel by Alice Hoffman.
Reading Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea - it's for the Reading Lottery.
I'm also reading a how-to book called Stanislavski Never Wore Tap Shoes - Musical Theater Acting Craft. It's not a book I'm reading straight through, just a chapter at a time when a get a free minute.

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
- Neil Gaiman

Sugar & Spice
I'm listening to Shadow and Bone (Grisha #1) by Leigh Bardugo. I browsed for an audiobook at my library the other day and picked this up based solely on how much I've seen you all rave about the series. I knew nothing about it going in, and fantasy is not really my style, but you guys have never steered me wrong - I ended up obsessed with the Demon King series thanks to you all, so I'm willing to give this one a shot since NBC seems to love it so much. I'm about 20% in and so far, so good.
Sugar & Spice
I think they are #23 and #24 for the year. I'm really enjoying the Jen Lancaster book. I needed it after reading The Dog Stars.
my read shelf:
Reading The Statistical Probability of Love (at first sight?). I started it because I was flying into JFK but never actually read any of it on my trip to NYC. It's fine. I'm in the 30s for this year so far.
