What Are You Reading Today? (March 18)

[dorothyinAus]

What book's pages are you turning this week?  How are you liking it?

QOTW:  Did you fill out a March Madness Bracket?

I'm reading Wicked, but am not making much progress. I also can't renew it at the library because of someone else's hold, so improbably going to take it back and try again another time.

Our whole family did a bracket, including the 3 and 6 year olds. We'll go out for ice cream with the "winner".

I'm reading Rock with Wings by Anne Hillerman (taking over the mysteries from her father, Tony Hillerman). I'm enjoying it quite a bit - I've loved the Hillerman books for years and I like how Anne has brought a slightly different voice to the books.

QOTW - Not a basketball fan, so I just spend the next few weeks complaining about how MM impacts my tv watching. On the other hand, it means I'll get more reading done!

Every Anxious Wave by Mo Daviau -- time travel with a music twist. I like it a lot so far.

QOTW: nope

I am reading The Martian and loving it. I just hope I can finish before my library ebook expires. It's on a Nook and from what I can tell, as long as I don't connect to the Wifi and don't close the book I should be ok- we shall see. It's on a huge waitlist at library, both ebook and hard copy so I'll be bummed if this doesn't work.

I'm listening to Sous Chef by Michael Gibney. It's very interesting so far.

I didn't fill out a MM bracket this year, but I do enjoy following the games- especially the big upsets. I love the Final Four, and usually watch at least a few games.

I'm in between books now. No, I do not fill in a bracket. I think it's dumb.

Re-reading The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan and listening to The Hobbit while waiting...waiting...waiting for my holds to come up at the library. I've been the first person on hold for one of them for 3 weeks and the longest loan period is 2 weeks so I don't understand! Of course Tolkien is my favorite so I'm not complaining about the Hobbit, just confused.

The Grace of Kings by Ken Liu. I'm about 60% done and like it so far. He is a skilled writer and makes the story work even though it has a somewhat complex character list.

[rootbeerfloat]

Still working on Echo in the Bone.

QOTW: I fill out multiple brackets lol. They are all busted already.

[dorothyinAus]

I'm reading Murder on the Caronia. It's good, but I'm only one chapter in.

QOTW: Yes. I filled out one for my family's bracket challenge -- the winner picks the charity the pot goes to and I did a charity one at 501(c)ares for Heifer International. The Heifer one is busted already; I have the best chance as of right now with my family one.

[whitemerlot]

I'm reading The Heart is a Lonely Hunter. I'm really enjoying it so far.

QOTW: No. I'm not really a sports fan.

[Nonny]

Physically reading Cider House Rules, but once again it's Friday and I'm barely into it. I did really like Orphan #8 from the last couple of weeks though.

I've also got 2 audio books going. One is about escaping North Korea, and it's sad but fascinating. The other is The Forgotten Garden, and I'm finding it a tad hard to follow because it jumps around in the timeline so much and I can't flip back to see when it is. There is also some family tree type stuff that I wish I could reread. It's kind of reminding me of The Light Between Oceans, but longer and with more fairies.

QOTW - nope. I give zero shits about basketball.

[abs]

I'm reading The Young Elites by Marie Lu. So far I'm really enjoying it! I thought book 3 was already out though and it's not so that was annoying.

Before that I read Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy Kalig. It was okay. Not as funny as I was expecting.

This week I am reading:

The Royal We (Loving!)

In Her Shoes (Jennifer Weiner) - author coming to speak/book sign so I am reading a book. Not a huge fan so far, its ok 

Just finished Wintergirls , which was about two teen girls struggling with eating disorders, bulima and anorexia.  Sad but hit so many notes with me

QOTD:  NOPE!

[christy082]

I'm reading Sacred by Dennis Lehane. I'm only about 100 pages into it but so far it's decent.

QOTW : nope

[spedrunner]

I am reading:

The Ramblers by Aiden Rowley (really liking it so far!!)

In her shoes (JEnnifer Weiner) MEH! blah

The Hundred Dresses (for school) , starting tonight

QOTD:  NOpe!

[cabbage10]

I am reading American Girls: social media and the secret lives of teenagers. I am high school teacher and it was so eye opening and scary. I am also reading Into the Darkest Corner.

I absolutely made a bracket but it was ruined right away. Being in NC it is basically mandatory
