I know a lot of people are in self- quarantine, libraries, stores are closed and some are laid off. So this month I am opening it up to any book you own or have in your house.

Please post here what you read so we can see all the different types of books people like.

Lea Ann (buntingla) | 765 comments I just started Commonwealth. It kind of a weird read so far.

Just finished The Union Quilters.
I was looking for an easy book to read, I have had trouble settling into any books this last week or so.

I enjoyed the book, I thought it was a nice view of the Civil War you don't often read about... how the women managed while the men were off fighting the war.

I've been the same. Kind of hard to get my mind into any of my books. I've read that one. I actually LOVE that series. I have read 3 or 4 of them. Actually, just thinking about them now makes me want to read one. :(

I put the next one in the series on my list of books to check out once the library opens back up.

I took a vacation day today to try to relax and de-stress a bit.

I finished reading The Sinner which was a good way to de-stress!

Well, you have plenty of time to read it now, that's for sure.

The Devil's Rooming house is my only library book I haven't gotten back to the library before it closed. They keep sending me past due notices which I think is a bit rude since they technically aren't open. (I don't want to talk about their drop box, it doesn't count).
