Friday August 30th Reading

[Vespasia]

Happy Friday! I can't believe it's the Friday before Labor Day and we're still in August.

What have you been reading this week?

QOTW: Do you have any plans for the long weekend?

I took a day of PTO today to read all day, and it was bliss! I finished Hunted by Abir Mukherjee, I Hope This Finds You Well by Natalie Sue, and The Bookwanderers (middle grade) by Anna James.

QOTW: Just a hair appointment and a friend’s birthday party. I’m excited for lots of relaxing!

I went back to a reread of The Starless Sea — I’m enjoying its floaty, all-over-the-place style this week. None of my more exciting holds came in this week, sadly.

QOTW: Driving for a small family thing today, but just relaxing the rest of the weekend. I definitely am glad to have that extra day right now!

I read Glass Houses by Madeline Ashby. I wasn't sure what to think about this book most of the way through but I ended up liking it. It went in a direction I wasn't expecting but that I enjoyed.


QOTW: I'm in CT for family stuff unrelated to the holiday weekend. The weather is gorgeous and really reminds me of the summers we had when I was growing up here.

Finished The Partner Plot. It was fine.

Still reading Wedding Issues.

Started listening to Master, Slave, Husband, Wife about William and Ellen Craft who escaped enslavement by posing as a white man (Ellen) and his slave (William).


QOTW: Do you have any plans for the long weekend? We're going apple picking tomorrow and then my youngest was nominated for a theater award, so we've got the award ceremony tomorrow night.

I read American Fire by Monica Hesse over the long weekend. Looking back it was a pretty boring crime and boring criminals so I'm not sure why I found it so easy to read. I gave it 3"

Qotw: We closed the cabin for the year.
