I had a fairly good week. I was on PTO on Monday and Tuesday and I had D&D with some friends on Tuesday. I had dinner with two of my siblings on Wednesday. I went to the local library and their annual used book sale on Thursday. One of my favorite artists released a new album on Friday and on Saturday, I went to my friends wedding reception and I got to dress up and hang out with my friends & coworkers so that was lovely. I am even trying out a local silent book club this afternoon.

      Silent Book Club is a lot of fun! It's just sitting in a room full of people and reading quietly together.

    What a lovely week for you! I haven't had much luck with D&D; I've joined a few different sessions throughout the years but haven't found a group that fit for me yet. Hopefully one day!

      Sending good vibes your way for finding a good D&D group, I know that I have gotten lucky in that department.

    I enjoyed the one meeting of the silent book club held near me, and I'd love to go again. You did have a great week! Feel free to link up at Sunday Salon, too, if you want!

      Silent Book Club is so fun, it's nice to do something I love in a row full of people doing the same thing. I will link up to that one as well, Thank you!

    Ooh, hope the silent book club was fun! There's one semi-local that I totally considered going to, to set aside some special reading time, but it hasn't been convenient yet.

      It was fun! I have seen this group meet before but the time didn't work for me until yesterday and I was glad that I finally got to join them.

    That silent book club sounds fun. I used to play D&D, but don't do it anymore as we couldn't find the time and a good group.

Tell Me Something Tuesday: Choosing your next read

   That's What I'm Talking About 's Tell Me Something Tuesday   is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general.  June 17th: How do you choose what to read next? I am a big mood reader, and my mood is always changing so I typically don't follow any kind of schedule for reading - I just kind of look around at what I own and grab what sounds best. My library holds usually end up choosing for me as once I get a book up from the library, I usually want to jump right into it. I have gotten super into applying for and reading ARCs lately so deadlines for the reviews have been choosing for me lately. The time of year is also a big factor in how I choose because once September rolls around, I kick into a gear where I only wanna read horror & mystery and that won't stop until Halloween and by then I am ready for Winter and Christmas themed reads.

Tell Me Something Tuesday: How Do You Read?

That's What I'm Talking About 's Tell Me Something Tuesday   is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general.  June 3rd: Paper, electronic, audio… How do you read? Has it changed in recent years? This year I sit at 75% of the books I read being physical copies and 25% being electronic which is slightly higher than normal for me - my all time stats have ebooks making up only 18% of my total reading, I think I have been on the rise this year because I have gotten into applying for and reading ARCs. I have tried multiple times to get into audiobooks but I get distracted too easily for them. Last year I got back into going to the library and 35% of the books I have read this year have come from there instead of from my own collection of unread books.

First Line Friday! Meme

 Welcome to First Line Friday! This is a weekly feature hosted by Carrie at Reading Is My Superpower . The idea is very simple: you just share the first line (or lines) of the book you are currently reading.  I love judging books by their first line. When I am book shopping at a physical store, I will read the synopsis and then the first line before deciding if I am going to buy it. I am cheating a little bit on this prompt as this line isn't from my current read but is instead from my favorite read so far this year. "It is one hour before Camilla's life changes, though she doesn't yet know it." It is June 21st, the longest day of the year, and new mother Camilla’s life is about to change forever. After months of maternity leave, she will drop her infant daughter off at daycare for the first time and return to her job as a literary agent. Finally. But, when she wakes, her husband Luke isn’t there, and in his place is a cryptic note. Then it starts. Breaking news: ...
