It’s MONDAY! What are YOU Reading? #Books

 

Sheila is hosting a meme for Mondays where you list the books you have recently completed this week, books you are currently reading, and books you hope to read this week. This is one of my favorite memes (and favorite bloggers) so make sure you check it out and participate, if you can! :)

The books I have read in the past week:

  • Divergent by Veronica Roth (review coming soon!)

Books I am currently reading:

  • City of Ashes (Book 2) by Cassandra Clare
  • To The Nines by Janet Evanovich
For some reason I can’t really 100% get into City of Ashes. I am maybe 30-40% into the book and I just haven’t been “hooked” yet. I am more than half way done (I think maybe 80%) with To the Nines. The Stephanie Plum series is definitely a guilty pleasure — hilarious, suspenseful, and at times very sexy. It is hard not to like the series (unless you’re my Mom.) For some crazy reason she wasn’t a fan. But she is a minority.

Books I plan on reading this week:

  • Birthmarked by Caragh M. O’Brien
  • Insurgent by Veronica Roth
  • The Corset Diaries by Katie MacAlister

I have a hard time with deciding what books to read. What I decide today, I may not be in the mood for when I go to START a new book. Right now, I really want to read these. But when I finish To the Nines, will I pick these up or will I want to read something else?

    Wait.. Did I just make this word up?

    Photo by: autumn_bliss (Flickr)

    Do you ever begin to write something (anything) and then a new word pops into your head and somehow you work it into your sentence, only to wonder later, “Wait — did I just make this word up or is it a real word?” You look down at this alien word before you and you genuinely believe in your entire being that the word works. Do you pass it off like you know what you’re talking about and risk the possible embarrassment of someone calling you out on your faux pas of it being a phony word? Or — do you erase it and find a word that you know exists in the human language? Or none of the above?

    Earlier this evening I was posting on a message board when I used the word, “guise”. In my head, for some reason, the word suddenly became foreign to me. I began to question everything about it. I wanted to say that I used it correctly because it sounded right but what if I was wrong? So instead of just accepting my choice of words, clicking submit, and being done with the particular thread I was reading, I had to stop and look up the word. I had to verify its very existence.

    It exists and I used it right. Whew. Seriously, though — close call. My next attempt to inject  new vocabulary into my words (written or otherwise) may not turn out the way I had hoped. (Wait — why is inject suddenly sounding off to me?)

    I wonder why it is that words we know exist or use often suddenly get switched up in our brain and we begin to question them as being real or question its usage. (Or does that sound completely nutty?) Maybe it’s my brains way of saying, “Feed me more vocabulary.. Nom Nom.” (Or maybe it’s my brain’s way of saying LET ME SLEEP! As I haven’t had a full nights rest in 10.5 months.)

    I am not completely alone here, am I? You’ve either made up words or thought you MAY have made up words, right?

    Right?

    Okay, good.
