I have just started reading Mr. Rebound by Kat T. Masen and on Mondays, I am reading The Summer Remains by Seth King along with BT Urruela on his Softcore Sundays (Sunday Tampa, FL time) in the R&E Frat. It's going to be a tearjerker, let me tell you!
I really enjoyed Spook Street so I got the first book of the series Slow Horses out of the library, and have just started that: I'm enjoying it just as much
oh boy, this Slow Horses is sooo good! I will really have to restrain myself from going straight to the library to borrow Dead Lions, the next book in the series. Unfortunately, the library doesn't have 2.5 The List: A Novella or 3 Real Tigers, so I'm going to have to make some other arrangement.... Book Depository, I think, for 3.

Leonie, I won the 4th book Spook Street on Bookstr and enjoyed it so much I wanted to go back and read the first 3 and a half....

I'm currently reading The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall. It's a US National Book Award Winner for 2005 and is pure delight. It's a middle grade book recommended to me by a US friend.

I work at a big school - over 2000 students. All the staff are talking about Thirteen Reasons Why on Netflix so I'm reading the book by Jay Asher.

I'm reading The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon. It's a short novel, around 150 pages but there's a lot going on. Really enjoying it.

Yesterday I read Daytripper by Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba. It's an award winning Brazilian graphic novel. Very good.Right now I'm reading Unchosen - The Memoirs of a Philo Semite by Julie Burchill.
Named in the 100 Worst Britons, you either love or hate Burchill. Interestingly this book was crowd funded. I love her work, always controversial, thought provoking and entertaining. Will read anything by her!

I'm trying to work my way through all the books I've op shopped.Right now I'm reading Homer's Odyssey I'm a sucker for real life animal stories.
Just finished Apple Tree Yard by Louise Doughty. Good book, review to come, interested in seeing the Netflix series now. Part way through both All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders and The Mermaid's Daughter by Ann Claycomb. Absolutely adoring both of these and recommending them already.
Also downloading the graphic novel Everafter Vol. 1: The Pandora Protocol from DC Entertainment off Netgalley - illustrations look amazing.
Sorry about the lack of links today, currently on my phone from my parents place.
Starting this tonight The Incredible Adventures of Cinnamon Girl
Enjoyed Melissa Keil's previous book and have had this one in my TBR pile for awhile.
currently reading The Things We Keep by Sally Hepworth.An interesting read that I can't wait to get back to.
