It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?

Spring break starts this week! This will be a much-needed break from work and classes to concentrate on reading and writing (both homework stuff AND some stuff for fun). Here’s what I’m in the middle of right now:

Reading Update:

Today is March 11.
I have read 24 books toward my goal of 80 for 2013. I’m hoping that number goes way up over spring break!

Currently Reading:

Always Alice by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor – I can’t believe I was so lucky to get a review copy of this before the release date in August. I’m 90% through, and it’s bittersweet to read the final book (#25) in the Alice series, charting Alice’s life from college to age 60.

The Elite by Kiera Cass – The second book in the Selection trilogy. It’s slow going, but probably because I’m only reading for 10-20 minutes at a time at the breakfast table.

Almost Perfect by Brian Katcher – I’m re-reading this one for a discourse analysis I plan to write for publication. It’s a book about a boy whose girlfriend admits that she was born a boy.

What are you reading today?

  1. dying to get my zombie on with Patient Zero by Jon Maberry! Also dying to read This is How You Lose Her by Junot Diaz.

  2. Butter by Erin Jade Lange….Intriguing so far.

  3. Hounded by Kevin Hearne – it’s good so far! :)

  4. I am kind of reading everything, although I have Office of Mercy sitting on my desk taunting me and I started Taken.

  5. I hate books that are series, every time I get to the last book (if I like the series that is) I go “WHAT? This can’t be it! Where is the rest….”

  6. I wish my spring break started now! Love the books though! :D

  7. Just started in on Reached, the last in the Matched Trilogy!

  8. Maya’s notebook by Isabel Allende, a book about galilei by berthold Brecht I think, please kill me by legs McNeil and Gillian McCain, it’s a book about punk.

    I’m really looking forward to reading those books. When I finished them I’m going to read Jane eyre

  9. That Almost Perfect looks really good. I’m currently working through The Eloquence of the Hedgehog
