Welcome to my reading update!  I'm going to post this on a few blog hops such as Stacking The Shelves run by Team Tynga's Reviews, and Sunday Post, run by Kimberly at Caffeinated Book Reviewer and a new Facebook group I've joined called The Sunday Salon

Seeing what other are reading (and finding a novel that everyone's talking about) is the reason I love looking at blog hop posts.  Please feel free to drop me a line and tell me what you're reading.

What a week it has been!  It's been a roller-coaster ride here in California.  We were all set to open up school with a hybrid model, on Monday. By Tuesday, our county went to the most restrictive (Purple) tier, and our plans for opening up schools were shuttled.  On Thursday, Governor Newsom issued a curfew to try and stop the spread of COVID-19.  It's getting scary out there, so a curfew is fine with me.  Whatever we can do , I'm in.

This has been a week of anxiousness about the virus.  So, what's the cure for my worries?  Books, of course!

I've been reading a lot, and acquired some exciting books.

New Books on My Shelf:

I'm most excited to read A Promised Land, by Barack Obama.  I received this audiobook for review from Penguin Random House.  But, it is over twenty-nine hours long! Oh my gosh, this is going to take a while!

As you begin your weekend, I wish for you rest, relaxation and health.

Stay Safe!

This has been a much more relaxing week, since all the hoopla of the election.  In fact, I have mostly been catching up on my sleep, rather than doing much reading.  But, sometimes rest is just what is needed.  As the week winds down, I'm finally starting to get into two very interesting books.  And with the weather also finally getting colder, it's the perfect weekend to get lost in a book.

No matter who you voted for, aren't you glad the Election is over?  I was obsessively checking the news, and social media throughout the week, which wasn't smart of me.  It was exhausting and emotional.  And I did very little reading, as it was too difficult to concentrate.  I really hope, after everything is finally completely finished, that the country can start to heal.  There's more we can unite behind, than divide over.

I've been trying to do more posts on my blog, so I'm posting a quick reading update for this week,  Books have been such a comfort these past few months.  Television is too filled up with political ads (the same three commercials for propositions in California are on repeat every few minutes), and most social media has been quite toxic.  So books are my happy place.  But aren't they always?

There are a lot of wonderful books here.  But I am most excited about Over The Woodward Wall by A. Deborah Baker (a.k.a Seanan McGuire).  I absolutely love her writing.  It is so full of contrasts, usually with hopeful young people facing a dark world.  I am thrilled to buy this book and support this author.

That's it for this week.  Have a fun, pumpkin-filled run up to Halloween!

It's been a long time since I've posted a reading update!  During these strange times, I've been doing tons of reading, but blogging has not been as joyful.  But I do want to share some of the wonderful books I've read recently.

What I'm Reading Now:

I like to read about three books at a time, Love Your Life is an ARC from one of my favorite authors, Sophie Kinsella, A Witch in Time, by Constance Sayers, is for my book club, as is The Vanishing Half, by Brit Bennett.  I'm enjoying all three, but Love Your Life is a nice light read, so is a perfect distraction from all the drama going on in the U.S.

What I Finished This Week:

These are a few of the books I've bought or received in the last week.  I'm most excited to read The Invisible Life of Addie Larue, by V.E. Schwab.  

That's it for this week.
