Week 18- What Are You Reading?

[Joanna]

April is wrapping up this week. Come talk about your final thoughts on your local read on April's Online Book Club thread. Join us in May for Book to Screen - read a book that was turned into a movie or television show!

What is everyone reading this week? Finally out in the States, I picked up The Binding by Bridget Collins and am almost done with it. I'm really enjoying it so far, despite the fact that it's not quite what I was expecting. I thought it would focus more on the binding aspect (in this world, people can bind people's memories to books, causing them to forget); instead it's more about Emmett and his personal journey/uncovering. Also the romance. But it's still a great book.

After I'm done with that, I have one of the newer Star Wars books, Queen's Shadow, to read.

Tell us what you are reading this week!

I’m reading BearTown by Fredrick Blackman. I’m really enjoying it but it’s really heavy subject matter with a rape that divides a hockey town. But, it’s fascinating because there are a ton of characters and their perspectives make the story feel so full.
