My Monday tradition, including a look back and a look ahead — what I read last week, what new books came my way, and what books are keeping me busy right now. Plus a smattering of other stuff too.
What did I read last week?
The Smell of Other People’s Houses by Bonnie-Sue Hitchcock: Just beautiful. My review is here.
Next Year For Sure by Zoey Leigh Peterson: Unusual and entertaining. My review is here.
In audiobooks, I finished the utterly delightful Prudence by Gail Carriger. Sheer silly fun — just as I’ve come to expect from Gail Carriger’s books.
Pop culture goodness:
In movies, I finally watched the magnificent Moonlight. It’s a movie that needs time to sink in. I found myself thinking about it all night after watching it, as small moments clicked into place for me. Powerful and beautifully made — watch it.
Fresh Catch:
One new book, for an upcoming blog tour:
What will I be reading during the coming week?
Currently in my hands:
The River at Night by Erica Ferencik
Now playing via audiobook:
Imprudence by Gail Carriger: Well, of course I’m going to listen to Imprudence next! I’m excited to start book #2 of the Custard Protocol series — although I’m dreading the letdown that will inevitably follow once I finish and have to wait for the release of book #3.
Ongoing reads:
My book group is reading and discussing Written in My Own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon — 2 chapters per week — with an end date coming up in June.
It’s week #4 of Outlander Book Club’s group read of One Hundred Years of Solitude. If you’d like to join in, just ask me how!
So many books, so little time…
