  • ??

I am so happy that I was finally able to finish reading Shiver this week, plus I was able to read and finish The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy & Goth Girl (which I absolutely loved!) Not quite sure what I plan to read this week other than YOU, as it’s a pretty big book. So I am just going to play it by ear. :)

The books I have read in the past week:

  • None

Books I am currently reading:

  • The Happiest Toddler on the Block by Dr. Harvey Karp, M.D.
  • Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

Books I plan on reading this week:

  • The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl by Barry Lyga

So I have read nothing for weeks, now. I have just felt so darn sick and tired, all of the time! I’ve felt sort of apathetic about everything because I’ve felt so ill so it’s been hard finishing anything up! I am really hoping to finish Shiver this week though. (I know, I know – I’ve said it before). But it’s been a difficult first trimester so far. :(

The books I have read in the past week:

  • Nana Vol. 2 by Ai Yazawa (Review Pending)
  • Negima! Vol. 1 by Ken Akamatsu (Review Pending)

Books I am currently reading:

  • The Happiest Toddler on the Block by Dr. Harvey Karp, M.D.
  • The Resurrectionist by Jack O’Connell

Books I plan on reading this week:

  • Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
  • The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl by Barry Lyga

I probably should finish reading The Happiest Toddler on the Block, huh? I’ve been reading it for weeks! It’s actually a pretty good book and an easy read. So I don’t know what the problem is! The Resurrectionist is a good book, but so dark (in a way) so I have a hard time reading it. (Hence my reading the mangas to lighten my mood). I hope to finish those up this week, though. I also want to read Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater because it’s been talked about a bit.

After all the publisher/author requested reads the past few weeks, after I finish up The Resurrectionist, I am going to empty my mind a little bit and read some self-chosen titles. Then I will resume back to my requested review titles on the waiting list. Thank you for understanding. :)

Don’t be alarmed by the many books I read this past week. They were very easy reads (for the most part) and I didn’t even finish reading Her Fearful Symmetry (which was beyond horrible).

J.Kaye created 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.

The books I have read in the past week:

    • 101 Habits of Highly Successful Novelists: Insider Secrets from Top Writers by Andrew McAleer
    • How NOT To Write a Novel by Howard Mittelmark and Sandra Newman

      Books I am currently reading:

      • The Happiest Toddler on the Block by Dr. Harvey Karp, M.D.
      • Occult America: The Secret History of How Mysticism Shaped Our Nation – by Mitch Harowitch

      Books I plan on reading this week:

      1. Watch the Hour – J.R. Lindermuth (I am going to try this one again, if I have time)
      2. How to Get Your Child to love Reading: For Ravenous and Reluctant Readers Alike – Esme Raji Codell

      I’ve sort of felt like I am in a reading funk lately. Maybe it’s because I’ve been reading too many “help” books. I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I am so wrapped up in beginning #NaNoWriMo (http://www.nanowrimo.org) that reading has taken a back seat. So please forgive me and excuse me during this adjustment period of writing AND reading at the same time. I also tried reading multiple books the past few weeks and I have discovered it only prevents me from truly engaging in either book. So – I am really going to try and finish up one novel before beginning another.
