What I Did:
Another very chilly week until Thursday when the temps reached the 40's. Monday through Wednesday were quiet for me, work, eat, sleep and repeat. Thursday, I worked a half day and I took advantage of that - I got a haircut (my first one in years!) and took my weekly trip to the library before settling in for an evening of drafting blog posts. Saturday, I worked and then unhauled some books at my local used bookstore. Sunday, I am going to get some housework done and read.
What I Read:
A slower reading week for me. I ended up DNFing Nightmare before Kissmas by Sara Raasch, I just wasn't in the mood for capitalistic Christmas and wasn't feeling the narrating character. I finished a reread of The Long Game by Rachel Reid and loved it just as much as I did the first time. I also read Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe which I thought was very interesting. I am very close to finishing an ARC of Fallen by Ashley Warren.
What I Checked Out From The Library:
None.

I am intrigued by Psychopomp & Circumstance. I hope you have a happy holiday!
ReplyDeleteYou too!
DeleteI need to "unhaul" some of my books too! Hope you enjoy the holiday and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I wish the same to you.
DeleteWell done on the challenges - X must be a hard one to achieve! Have a wonderful holiday!
ReplyDeleteI got lucky and found a X that I was super interested in reading.
DeleteYou did great with your reading goals this year. I always have a hard time finding X. Hope you have a great week and holiday!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I hope you had a great holiday as well.
DeleteI’m a book dragon, unhauling books just doesn’t happen even though I ran out of bookshelf space about 8 jumbo plastic tubs ago :)
ReplyDeleteWishing you and yours a very merry week!
My home is quite small so I have to unhaul books that I didn't love a couple times a year to make room for books that I will love. Hope you had a merry week as well!
DeleteHappy Holidays and merry reading!
ReplyDeleteI like the word Psychopomp -- that's new to me. Happy reading & holidays this week.
ReplyDeleteIt's such a fun word! Happy Reading to you as well.
DeleteI have a closet full of books that need to be unhauled. I hope you're having a great week!
ReplyDeleteThere is something super satisfying about unhauling books and making room for new ones. Hope you have a great week as well.
DeleteI really really liked The River Has Roots, hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI am super excited to read it!
DeleteSorry to hear you didn't enjoy Nightmare Before Kissmas. I liked it, but wasn't thrilled with the direction the second book was going, so haven't read it yet. Sounds like a nice enough week, and you've reminded me I need to reschedule my haircut I had to cancel in October due to all the craziness with moving my mom. Hope you have a nice holiday this week!
ReplyDeleteI just finished The Long Game for the first time and absolutely adored it! Definitely one I'd love to re-read regularly :) Wishing you happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteI love that you adored it! I love the series so much.
DeleteCongrats on finishing your challenge! I really need to draft my year end posts. I'm running out of time! Ugh. I hope you're having a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Hope you have a great week as well!
