No Best Reads this month??? I did purchase Push last week with my gift card...can't wait to read that one!
ReplyDeleteYou had a good month --I just loved Little Bee.
ReplyDeleteStaci beat me to it. No best reads, huh?
ReplyDeleteFrom your list I've read:
Shutter Island (loved it)
Little Bee (liked it a bunch!)
Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (quite good, but the beginning bored me)
Thanks for reminding me to get my list up before the next 3 months fly by! :)
Staci ~ Oh good! I know you wanted to read it. I look forward to your thoughts! As for "No Best Reads," sad to say, that seems to be the theme for this year. :( I haven't read one "excellent" book yet! I've come close, but . . . it's disappointing nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteDiane ~ I'm happy with my total. I actually read more than I listened. That was a surprise.
Les ~ Oh, Les. I'm so sad. No "best reads" for me. I'm wondering if it's the change in my schedule and all the distractions it brings. Maybe I'm just not allowing myself to be submersed in a book and forgetting everything else. I don't know. On the other hand, maybe I just haven't read a book that makes me want to say it was "excellent" - maybe a combination of both. Who knows?
I'm sure you'll get your groove back. It's probably just a combination of the new schedule/pressures and not grabbing a winning book. I feel pretty lucky lately to have read so many good books. Devoured Anna Quindlen's new one and loved it. Loved Tana French's new book. I'm enjoying a Young Adult book called Ashes. Not sure if it's "great" but I'm looking forward to getting back to it. Peaks and valleys. That's life and reading. :)
ReplyDeleteLes ~ You are so right ~ there's a season for everything.
