Up Next:

Hopefully, I’ll finish up the book club book and the GWTW book this week. I’m itching to read a bunch of fluff after studying pretty hard for the past couple of months, but we’ll see. I have to go out of town for work this weekend, so I don’t know if that will mean a lot of time for reading as I travel or not.

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.

    I'm going to check out your thoughts on State of Wonder. Ann Patchett is one of my favorite authors.

  4. CONGRATS on passing your test.

    I LOVED The Orphan Train and Saving CeeCee Honeycutt. Looks like you are getting many "yes" votes for both of them

    ENJOY your week.

  8. I have The End of Your Life Book Club but I haven't read it yet. I am kind of intimidated by it! I want to read The Orphan Train too. I've heard really good things about it.

I love to hear from you! Please contact me (menu bar, above) if you're having trouble commenting.
