Harshmi's Reading Nook

[Harshmi]

Been facing a reading slump since few years and having periods of on/off reading. Excited to be more active in this group as well as read more than I have ever with a good mix of non-fiction (which generally I do not tend to pick up) and fiction :)

Hey Harshmi, how are the reading slumps treating you? I've been on the cusp of being in one this last month, which of course has slowed me a tiny bit down, but hell if it will deter me :D
Keep up the good spirits and Happy reading!

Btw, did you enjoy All Systems Red? I'm still looking forward to getting to it, at some point.

[Harshmi]

Hey Lisa, I have been reading for the past 2 months but haven't been able to devote proper time to complete a book. Slow progress.

I loved All Systems Red and would definitely recommend it. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series

Sorry for my belated reply! Sometimes I forget to check back in since I don't receive any notifications.

I'm sorry to hear about the reading slump :( I've been kinda feeling sluggish aswell. Not quite full on slump, but also slower progress than usual. Hopefully the tides will turn for the both of us soon enough!

Thanks for the recommendation though :) I'll have to bump it up on my TBR list, and see if I can get my hands on it through Libby.

Happy Reading!

Hey Lisa! Yes I enjoyed reading it so much so that I finished it in one sitting :)

Nice! I hope you liked Daisy Jones & The Six aswell :) I read it as an audiobook and really enjoyed it, and now I still have to watch the tv adaption. Looking forward to that.

Have a great weekend!

Thanks, Lisa! I read Daisy Jones as an audiobook as well and quite enjoyed the experience. How's your reading going?

I'm glad! :)
Are you reading anything at the moment?

My reading has been through ups and downs these last couple of months. Like I'm still reading, but it's not quite hitting the spot, you know ? So it's been going a bit slower than I'm used to. I have a feeling I'm in need of that one book that'll just blow my mind :D
Hopefully, the upcoming months before the end of the year, will be better though :) Right now I'm just looking forward to seeing what the Team Readathon prompts will be.
