I am going through a reading slump…except it is a very specific type. I cannot seem to find a Kindle book to hold my attention. I have two physical books going and an audiobook I‘m flying through but I just can‘t settle on a kindle book. #bookishproblems

EvieBee I know what you mean. I almost always have 3 on the go in the 3 formats but for the past 6 months haven‘t been able to stick to a kindle book. 😩 (edited) 2y

This definitely proudly up a lot of issues to contemplate. It wasn‘t perfect, and actually really uncomfortable at times but I enjoyed this as much as I could. I would recommend.

My husband took out 4 year old out for a few hours so I am having some wine and reading. Yesterday the 4 year old had a complete melt down leaving the playground so this downtime was very much needed.

My family took a trip to Albany for some VA business. We stopped at the mall in Colonie which has a B&N…only to find out that it was closed due to a flood in the store.

Boo.

But we had a great time at The Christmas Tree Store and then having Indian food for dinner.

ju.ca.no Oh no! Glad you ended up having a nice time anyways though! 2y

Mehso-so

This was a fast read, which was both good and bad. Good because I was able to fly through it in a few hours but bad because I would have liked more details and I would have loved a taste of what happened after Grace Space.

I had a virtual hearing from my nearly two year old workers comp claim, which is now being rescheduled so I can get an attorney.

Not even noon and I am exhausted.

The Plot | Jean Hanff Korelitz

I went into this so blind it wasn‘t even until halfway through that I realized it was a mystery/thriller. I enjoyed this, and while I was able to figure a few things out there was still enough to surprise me. I do want there to be a full length version of the novel in this novel.

The first have wasn‘t exactly a slog, but it was slow going but the second half truly makes up for it. I loved all the characters and was sad to leave them at the end.

I love Matthew Norman‘s novels, and this was a fun listen. It wasn‘t quite as funny as his previous novels but I enjoyed the characters a lot and it would be a great rom-com movie.

I finished this yesterday and holy shit. I had heard of this case on a podcast, possibly Least of These, but I was not prepared. What a horrific case. What a horrific woman.

Loved the writing, hated the subject. I actually steer away from serial killers despite loving true crime, but Israel Keyes is interesting.

What I expected, the story of a girl leaving a cult.

What I got, a story of a girl leaving her family.

Went to Albany yesterday to get my iPad fixed. Surprisingly it was a matter of giving me a new one rather than repair the screen... So that was sweet.

It has been a day. I had a phone interview this morning and then went to get our taxes completed. Already got a call back to schedule a in-person interview for said job. And I got this in the mail for reading for the blog I am working on.

Now my daughter and I settling in for a Disney marathon while my husband is at work.
