Well vacation is over so I must immerse myself in books
again to forget about the Caribbean. There are several books I plan on reading
this weekend, one of which is Lust & Wonder by Augusten Burroughs. I was
able to get an advanced copy from Netgalley and so far I am really
enjoying it. It is an autobiography / memoir of the development and downfall of
the relationships Burroughs was involved with while living in New York
City, and examines the process of figuring them all out. The
second book I will be reading is Wolf by Wolf by Ryan Graudin, which I got in my Uppercase Box a few months ago. It is historical fiction / alternate history (also categorized as YA because of the main characters being teenagers) with some sci-fi and fantasy thrown
in. So right up my alley! I am already sucked into this book and can’t wait to
get back to reading it tonight! The third, and final, book I plan on reading
this weekend is the sci-fi classic The Sheep Look Up by John Brunner. This book
tackles a theme in sci-fi that we often come across, the consequences that
would arise from the destruction of Earth. So yeah, that is it for this
weekend. Well, as of now. Not saying another book or two won’t be thrown into
the mix. ;-)

Friday
again! I’m not reading much this time. I am listening to an audiobook by
Samantha Young, One King’s Way is a
novella in her On Dublin Street series. I love the other books, but this installment
is kind of underwhelming – the main female character is slightly unlikeable. In
addition to that, I am planning on starting Carry
On by Rainbow Rowell. It is fantasy and very Harry Potter-esque, apparently.
If you have read Fangirl by the same
author, you will recognise the characters. I am a little worried about it as I
have heard mixed reviews, but I guess we’ll have to read and see. Obviously. You
reading anything fun? Tiina
So yeah, that is it for us for this weekend. What are your plans, reading and/or otherwise?
