It's Friday Reads Time! What are you all up to?


This has an been absolutely dreadful week when it came to sneaking in any reading time. Work stress is killing me and I haven't been able to concentrate or get very much sleep but I'm leaving all of that crap behind soon and reading to my hearts content. It's going to be 100 this weekend so I plan to camp out in front of a fan and only move when I'm forced to!

Talk to me at Twitter and/or Instagram as I'm also leaving the laptop closed :)

    I agree with you about the fan and not moving. Sounds like a great plan to me!

      Maybe this weekend will be better. I decided to vacuum our neglected pool and power wash the fence/half the house for fun. I think I need someone to send help!

    I'm sorry you have work stress. That is my biggest reading killer. :( I hope you are having a great reading weekend! I'm binging on season 2 of Glow.

      Thanks, we started watching Glow too and I got zero reading done :( The work stress is killing my powers of concentration (which weren't very strong to begin with!)

Tackling the TBR List in 2018: Time to Vote!

I tried this meme last year and though it was incredibly fun I never revisited it because I spent the rest of the year breaking my promises to myself and reading ARC's and review copies instead of my TBR pile.I hope to change it this year and read at least one book a month from the TBR stacks. Michelle @  Because Reading  created and hosts the meme. Here they are, three actual books randomly plucked from one of my piles. Perfect for the Valentines season, right?!  Please feel free to let me know if any of these are not worth reading! I am determined to learn how to DNF properly. The Books              I actually picked these out for a Twitter post in January and meant to do the meme then because the Twitter-verse wasn't interested in my tbr pile. I did have one vote for Blood Rubies & In Cold Blood.  Click Cover for More About the Books             ...
