Weekend Reading

 


So my plans for the week changed, I did not do as much reading as I hoped for so I kind of just deleted the weekly readathon doohickey. Weeeeee. 


Kinda went through a lazy spell, kinda had multiple panic attacks but whatev. My grown-ass son has rescheduled his visit with me this weekend and I am pretty broke, so I figured that this weekend would be well spent reading. I won't call it a readathon, but maybe like a read-a-whole-lot-a-thon? 


I do work today (Saturday) 2pm-6pm my time, but otherwise alls I have on the agenda is a workout, a laze-about, and then some couch sittin', so why not make it a bit more productive than that? 

My TBR is pretty much the same:

  • The Three-Body Problem (starting page: 95)
  • Fire and Blood (Starting page: 76)
  • Fourth Wing (starting page: 18) 
If I can finish one out of the three by the end of the weekend I would be a deelighted human person! 

Knowing my dumbass I'll be full blast with a bout of book A.D.D. and flip flop around through all of them over the weekend so who knows? 

So let's do this...hopefully. 

Weekend Totals

I got sucked into Fire & Blood and pretty much only read that. I did not finish like I was hoping, but I did get a good chunk read.

I read a total of 229 pages!

The Secret History by Donna Tart (Spoilers)

Image
 So I have had this book on my shelf for years, I honestly do not remember how or when I acquired it but it's been just sitting there collecting dust. I've recently discovered (very late) Booktube and this was on a few of the lists. I figured why not?  I spent the first hundred or so pages kind of like...okay so this is a book about rich douchebags being douchey..what's so secret about that? That's when the IT hits the SHAN. Things had percolated so well that it kind of  made me do a Shatner. So it went from zero to a bijillionity in like 50 pages and I was not sure I was ready for it! I honesty didn't know what to think. This book too me for a ride. I didn't like any of the characters at their core. Even Richard, our main man, had me shaking my head. Like bro, I know you are wanting to be considered part of the group but once you find out that part of that group has murdered someone in their own yard in the middle of some douchey rich bro's bacchanal ritual

2024 Sci fi Readathon-I'm In!!!

Image
  So it's June! A new month. A new chance to get caught up with my reading goals. I'm joining along with the SciFi Summer Readathon (click the button to join along too!) this month. I am giving up on sticking to a proper schedule but I will be making updates as the month goes along.  It IS a scifi readathon, so it's encouraged to read in this genre or fantasy if you prefer. I may try to sneak in a Fantasy read as scifi isn't exactly my schtick...though I will see about finding one that might tickly my fancy.  My very tentative #TBR stack is as follows: It by Stephen King (to finish) Misery by Stephen King Pet Sematary by Stephen King  Blook at the Roots by  LaDarrion Williams   Doctor Sleep by Stephen King (finish) Red Rising by Pierce Brown  I am wanting to finish up the books I started in previous months and on top of that get 5 books read this month. I have quit a bit of school work to catch up on and I want to chip away at my savings goal by working more too.
