What are you currently reading?


Which I will hopefully become one of if I can find time to read again :)

Emily I have to limit my tbr pile on GR or I go insane! I only add 50 books at a time. I used to have like 200 or so. Of course I want to read more than 50 books but I just put the "next 50" on my list!


I actually laughed when I saw my husband's TBR list only has 2 books on it. Of course, his actual pile of books is about 10 books high.



So glad you read Book Thief. I was slacking on my pimping last month and some of you got away!! Ready Player One
is our April book and then I think we are open for May so if there are any volunteers to pick let us know :)

I can't handle that amount! :)

Yes it is! I am so excited for you Karen :)

Oh I am also listening to Harriet the Spy on audio
. I am reliving my grade school days when I read that book over and over.




Finished:
It was ... ehhh.
And I still need to finish the two other things I've been reading for like a month. x_x

Edit: which might actually be this weekend... because I am itching to read more of the book thief and i haven't felt that way in a while. :o

I started The Book Thief but just haven't gotten sucked in yet. I've been in a bit of a reading slump lately,so I wound up starting several books. The one that finally captured me for the time being is my re-read of


On a side note, there is small evidence that my new medication is doing what it's supposed to do. I have to work my way up to a larger dose though, as the doctor told me my numbers were EXTREMELY high.
I wish *I* had a weekend of just reading. However, my exciting plans for the day is to somehow relieve my poor indoor cats of fleas. They have been tormented for a couple months now and the Frontline isn't working. So...today is vacuuming and spraying the carpets, etc. THEN trying my last dose of Frontline. What a pain in the @$$. I can think of about a million other things I would rather do today. I have seen no evidence of fleas anywhere else...and when I comb these flea-bags, I've only seen evidence of very few. Either way...that's my day. Woo hoo.
Happy Weekend all!
This morning I finally finished:
It was awesome! I also started our group read:
I like it for the most part so far. Very interesting world-building.

Yeah it is about Jack The Ripper and it is about a 14 year old boy who is adopted by a detective who is trying to capture The Ripper

Sorry about the fleas Lloyd. My indoor cats have gotten them a few times (I think from home visits to my not so clean clients so I now spray on Off before I go out in the field) but I have lucked out and got them early. My BFF had a similar issue as you are having where she had to vacuum daily for like 2 months! She also has an indoor cat and is a clean freak so it really bothered her - plus she had a newborn baby around then so she was going crazy! We took out all of our carpet last summer and my hubby put in all laminate floors because of our cats (puke, hair, etc...) Good thing I love them.

Thanks for mentioning that! I've been wanting to read that series. I picked them up too.
Yay Brigid! I think you will like Ready Player One *fingers crossed*
I second Brigid's yay for TFiOS Darren :)

That reminds me. I bought it right before the baby was born. I really need to find time fr my TBR pile!
