#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: finished 2 books this week; wasn't wowed by them, but they were fairly easy to complete.

#currentlyreading: All the Light is for a book club meeting; the Alice Munro is a #slowbutsteady (didn't read from it this week); The Music of Bees is for a previous book club meeting and it shouldn't take a lot of time to complete it.

melissajayne #upcomingreads: The Maid is for another book club meeting this week, but since I own my copy and have read it before, I don't foresee it taking me too long to read. The Essex Serpent is a restart for me and I hope to get to it this week. Midnight Library is for a book club meeting later in the month and I don't think it will take me long to read it, as I have quite a bit of time to read it and this will be the fourth time I have read it. 5mo
melissajayne Happy reading 😊 📚 5mo

#currentlyreading: The Awakening should be completed fairly soon; Alice Munro's Best is a #slowbutsteady and I am hoping to work and complete The Music of Bees

#upcomingreads: Need to start All the Light and The Maid for book clubs about a week from now; The Essex Serpent is a restart

Happy reading 📚❤️

#finished: I finished quite a number of books this past week, due in large part to #deweysreadathon that was held on Saturday and the fact that I had two book club meetings last week (finished my other book last week). Reviews of these books will be forthcoming this week.

#currentlyreading: still plugging away at The Kingdom and will be picking up The Essex Serpent again this week (just a really busy reading time)

melissajayne #upcomingreads: I am planning on starting The Women, Legends and Wolf Hall this coming week. I hope to try to combine my apartment cleaning/packing with my reading as much as possible.

Hope you all have a wonderful week of reading.📚

#finished: I finished A House in the Sky and really liked it (I will be posting a review in the next couple of days)

#currentlyreading: Read quite a bit this past week, as I spent the wee hours of Saturday morning finishing up A House in the Sky. I also spent quite a bit of Saturday reading The Kingdom, The Power, and The Glory and feel like this will need a reread at some point. I hope to either finish or continue

melissajayne reading the other books that I have in my currently reading pile, in addition to doing some more cleaning out of my apartment.

#upcomingreads: I have to read Fried Green Tomatoes for a book club meeting this week and judging by the chapters, I feel like it should be a fairly quick read. I do plan on working on Wolf Hall.

Happy reading 📚

SarahBookInterrupted I have had Wolf Hall on my bookshelf for 2 years. A friend gave it to me. It‘s so big and I just haven‘t started it because I‘m trying to determine if it will be a slow or quick read. My mother came for Christmas and read it in 3 days but she is an incredibly fast reader. She liked it, but that was all the insight I got. Are you finding it a quick engaging read or is it a slow read and I‘ll need some real time to get into it? 7mo
melissajayne @SarahBookInterrupted I read it within the last ten years and I think it took me awhile to get through it, but mind you I am a slow reader. I found it to be a slower read, as there are a lot of characters that are written into the book (there is a character list that is several pages long). 7mo
SarahBookInterrupted @melissajayne Thanks, that‘s what I thought. It might have to be a summer read for me when I have more time. I appreciate it! 7mo

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast
#finished: A very productive week. I finished Flowers of the Killer Moon and just finished Indigo (my review will be up in the next day or two).

#currentlyreading: I am down to two books at the moment (Northwoods and The Essex Serpent), but will likely be starting a couple of the #upcomingreads in the next few days.

Continued below...

melissajayne Upcoming reads: I will be starting Cutting and 100 year old man this week, as they are both book club reads. I hope to start working on Last Mission to Tokyo this coming week as well, depends on how I am feeling.

Happy reading 📚

#finished: I got three books completed this past week and feel quite pleased with myself. I really liked Prequel, but was a bit disappointed with A Man Called Ove.

#currentlyreading: I am continuing to plod a long with The Alice Network, but am still enjoying it. Started Killers and The Essex Serpent.

Continued below...

melissajayne #upcomingreads: I hope to start Indigo and Seven Up this coming week and pick up Last Mission to Tokyo again.

Happy reading 📚

#finished: Finally finished a book this week! Yay! I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to reading Lattes & Legends sometime soon.

#currentlyreading: still working on Prequel (almost done it, but its a slower read than I expected) and The Alice Network (I am enjoying the Eve sections, but the Charlie sections seem slower). Started A Man Called Ove and really like it.

Continued below...

melissajayne #upcomingreads: Will start Meet Me at the Lake, as it is a book club read (as is Ove). Am planning on starting Indigo for the Book Cougars readalong meetup in a few weeks and will pick up and hopefully finish Last Mission (not much left in the book) this coming week. I will hopefully start Seven Up and The Essex Serpent.

I also got The Women by Kristin Hannah yesterday evening and really want to start that as well.

Happy reading 📚

#finished: Didn't finish anything this past week; think reading a lot early last week impacted on that.

#currentlyreading: I am still continuing to read Prequel and The Alice Network and I started reading Bookshops and Bonedust

#upcomingreads: like my previous weeks, I am hoping to work on these two, provided I finish either prequel or The Alice Network early on in the week.

Happy reading 📚

#bookreport: nothing was finished this past week; didn't read much due to not feeling well 🤒

#weeklyforecast
#CurrentlyReading: I have a bookclub coming up on Saturday for the Half-Blood Prince and am still in the midst of Order of the Phoenix. Still slogging through Last Mission and am hoping to finish All the Quiet Places

#upcomingreads: These two are bookclub books, one of which I will not be attending due to not feeling well.

melissajayne I am planning on reading it, as its been on my TBR list since about 2007. Fortunately, Half-Blood Prince is one of my favourite reads, so that shouldn't be hard to read in a few days. 12mo
