Up Next:

I wrote last week that I was going to focus primarily on my Hawaii book so I could get some planning done. That happened but in a more roundabout way than I expected. On Monday, I remembered that Banned Books Week is coming up soon so I ran out to the library and grabbed a stack of shorter (primarily children’s) books and got started on my reading. I’ll continue with that stack this week. I also need to look for another audiobook but I don’t know when I’ll get around to that. I have a lot on my plate at the moment.

What are you reading this week?

I have an affiliate relationship with Malaprop’s, my local independent bookstore located in beautiful downtown Asheville, NC; and Better World Books. I will receive a small commission at no cost to you if you purchase books through links on my site. My opinions are completely my own.

  1. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't The Witches what the movie with the girl in the painting was based off of? I've been meaning to read it but I've never seen it in stores lol!

  2. I always enjoy reading up on a place before I visit it. I haven't been to Hawaii yet, though. Have fun!

  3. I haven't made any plans for Banned Book Week yet, I need to get that sorted.

    Happy reading!
