To be fully honest, I’ve been in a reading slump. At the end of last year, I was averaging 10 books per month. In January, I read 14. But, we’re more than halfway through February, and I’ve read 4. I’m not sure if it’s my selections or if I’m just too tired (I’ve woken up with a book on my face more than once this month). Either way, I’m committing to do better. Here are my goals for this week:
From Twinkle, with Love by Sandhya Menon: I read When Dimple Met Rishi last week, and I really love Menon’s style. This seemed like an obvious next choice.
Born on the Fourth of July by Ron Kovic: I watched Bruce Springsteen on Broadway a few weeks ago and he mentioned this book. It’s a memoir about a Vietnam vet who returns home paralyzed from the chest down and how veterans were (and still are) mistreated and neglected. I started it last week, but it’s pretty intense so I’m reading it slowly.
If, Then by Kate Hope Day, In Another Life: A Novel by C. C. Hunter, The Dating Game by Kiley Roach and Necessary People by Anna Pitoniak: These four are ARCs I’m trying to finish before I pure my NetGalley account (more about that later).
