It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


It's Monday! What Are You Reading is hosted by Kathryn at Book Date

So this week we toured Wyatt's future preschool. It's hard for me to believe that he will be going this year! I am not ready, I want to keep my peanut at home with me. He is starting because his Early On program ages kids out at 3, and he needs the extra help before starting school. This place is perfectly suited for physically challenged kids, with great support services. And my kid is so social - he is going to love being with the other kids! Although, I will be freaking out at home. Or in the parking lot with a book, so I can stay close....lol.

Read Last Week:

  

Spectacle was so good! I really enjoy this crazy series. I also read Twist of Faith, which was....hmm. I started off gung ho but then by the end, I wasn't feeling it as much. Review soon.

Reading This Week:


  


So I really wanted to read The November Girl for its whole Michigan thing - Lake Superior and Isle Royale, all that. But I also promised my husband I would read Nevernight, and since he always reads what I suggest, I need to get on it. Lol. So I will probably be reading both this week. :)

Watching:

Riverdale, Outlander, Grace and Frankie (or Frankie and Grace, I can never remember), Home Town. Watching Outlander makes me want to move to Scotland so bad! I even googled it the other day. My grandma is from Scotland and we still have family there, so maybe one day I will at least visit. :)

How about you all? How was your week?

  1. I need to read that Vincent series- you'd think with the paranormal creatures and the weird circus/ traveling show/ whatever it is that I would gravitate to that. But I never seem to get to it. Soon hopefully... and that book set in Lake Superior?? Yes please! I so need to get that. I love books set in Michigan. :)

    What do you think of Riverdale lately? Is it me or is it getting kinda strange?

    1. It is getting strange! It is like there is this dark version of each character that we are seeing. And they have referenced Lovecraft like 3 times this season. I wonder if it has something to do with that, although what I can't guess.

      The Vincent series is really entertaining!I wasn't sure I was going to like this one, it seemed like more of the same, but there was a different enough spin on it that I still really enjoyed it!

      I love Michigan settings too. :) I have read a bit of it, and so far it is pretty good. Although, a little harsh on middle aged people...lol.

    Twist of Faith caught my eye.

    1. We love it too! We finished it and I am so bummed. :(

      Twist of Faith wasn't too bad. It started off gangbusters, but I feel got a little derailed somewhere.

    1. It wasn't too bad, although in my opinion it started off better than it finished, which was a bummer. :)

  8. Oh wow, preschool already? That was fast! I'm glad there is a place where Wyatt's needs will be met. Of course you'll miss him; you'll have to keep yourself busy now. He will have such fun especially since he loves to socialize.

    1. Ooh, do share about your jook - what you put in it and what ratio water to rice. My mum is now making jook in her instant pot. 1 cup long-grain rice to 6 c water. She also put in smoked hamhocks too.

I love hearing from people, don't be shy! I would love to hear what you think! I always reply back, although it takes me a bit longer these days due to the little guy.
