“It’s Monday! What are you reading?” is a weekly event hosted by Sheila at Bookjourney to share with others what you’ve read the past week and planning to read next.
So this past week, I’ve pretty much failed in the old reading department. But, in my defence, I HAVE been away with the fam, then I did read one of my own titles to look for places to edit, and then I did spend the weekend writing. Does that give me a bit of a pass, maybe?
And because of my epic fail, I only read one ‘real’ book last week. And that was:
A real interesting, butterfly- effect-type tale that I enjoyed a lot. My review will be posted pretty soon for this one.
And onto what I’m reading now. Well, after finishing all my weekend tasks, I decided to give The Iron King another go. I’ve had it a while. Admittedly, I tried to read it back then but simply couldn’t get into it. Then last night, I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try again–and I managed to get farther this time, hitting my stride around page 25 and then having to admit (fatigue-based) defeat at around midnight and page 77. I picked it back up again this morning, and I hope to persevere. I’ll let you all know how that goes.
On top of that, I fully intend to do a buddy read this week with Kayleigh of K-Books and Anjana of Kindle and Me for the (so I’ve been told) amazing:
So what about you guys? What are you all reading this week?
Woohoo! Divergent buddy read. It’s freaking awesome!
