Today is Read a Book Day - what are you reading?

[ufcasey]

According to the Internet, today is "Read a Book Day". So in honor of this holiday you probably didn't even know existed, what book are you reading today?

I'm reading A Fistful of Charms (Hollows series, #4) by Kim Harrison.
For anyone who has already read it: if Rachel comments one more time that Jenks looks hot, I am going to scream. Please tell me this gets better. I'm starting to doubt why I am reading this series in general.

Hamilton by Ron Chernow. And it's a real book, not an ebook.

The Light Between Oceans - M.L Stedman

Heat, by Bill Buford. 

I wouldn't recommend it.  It's a bit dull.

A Desperate Fortune by Susanna Kearsley

Agreed. His other book, Cold, was much better.

A Great Reckoning by Louise Penny. Also reading the Hamiltome -- Hamilton, a Revolution. So all the songs are on constant rotation in my head.

It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
It's pretty good; I just need a couple hours to dedicate to digging into it. AND Read a Book Day seems like the perfect opportunity- thanks OP!!

I'm listening to The City of Mirrors by Justin Cronin which is the final book in a trilogy. I loved the first book, the second was meh, and this one is definitely second best. I really liked the backstory portion because it explained how things came to be.

I'm reading Morning Star by Pierce Brown, another trilogy and the last book as well. I devoured the first book but I've been really slow on the second book and this one. It's not that I don't like it but my mind hasn't been on reading much.

I started listing to Stephen King's It but put it down to finish up The City of Mirrors when it became available at the library again.

Empire of Storms!! **WOOT**

Oh boo, I'm starting a grad class (online) today, so I'll have to focus my evening on reading and starting assignments. Hopefully I can squeeze in a little time for Miss Peregin's.

Rereading A Discovery of Witches and listening to Factory Man.

OH! Is that today??

[rainbowchip]

Cujo. I'm not very far into it but it hasn't really caught my attention.

I finished A Great Reckoning (Louise Penny) last night. I have Neal Bascomb's The Winter Fortress to read next, but haven't actually started it yet.

This is what I just finished. It was intense. I don't even know what I think about it.

That's how I felt. So intense.

[booknerd]

The Edge of Lost

And

HP & the SS.

This is my new favorite holiday!

[travella]

I am reading The Status of All Things. I am hoping that this book gets better because I am finding the main character a little annoying.

[hurricanedrunk]

Reading Slammed by Colleen Hoover. Listening to Death on the Nile by Agatha Cristie. Enjoying both so far.

I was reminded my Fantasy FB draft was tonight, SO all time & energy was dedicated elsewhere. You've got me excited though, thanks! Tomorrow!!

Bittersweet by Susan Wittig Albert.  It's the 23rd book in the China Bayles mysteries series.  There is some interesting information about deer movement and the CWD epidemic.

Though I'm reading it out of order, because I didn't pay attention when I bought the next-in-series.  I haven't read #22 yet.
