At the moment I am waiting for my latest order from thriftbooks (a godsend by the way). I am about to start Mistborn. A trilogy about overthrowing the ruler of their nation who has been in power for over one thousand years and claims to be a god. I can't wait for the books to get here so I can devour them all in 24 hours. :D

Currently reading Lolita. While it is quite difficult to read, there's such beauty behind each word.

Just reading Red Sparrows by Jason Matthews and the book is a very interesting one even though I have not finish it but everything in the beginning to the middle is showing me that I will never regret reading and reading again

Currently reading "Sundown" by Nora Roberts. Wonderful characters and a surprised beginning. Just a few pages to go but it's been a very good read. I'll be reading Christian next, the last book of the 50 shades of gray saga.

I am reading James Patterson and Maxine Paetro's "Woman of God." The book is very interesting. It keeps the reader wondering what's next.

I have started the 2016 Booker Prize winner, The Sellout by Paul Beatty. I've only read the Prologue so far, but that's enough to indicate that I'm going to love this one.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

At this moment, I am reading Diary of a Snoopy cat for fun. I love reading children's books for fun and I also write these kinds of books.
On the other side, I read any kind of self-help book to learn. :techie-studyinggray:

I am currently reading "The Secret Chord"by Geraldine Brooks

I am have way through and find myself looking forward to the next few minutes I can pick up the book and read a page or two.

Of course, I read past my bed time as with all good reads.

Highly recommend, especially for anyone interested in the Life of King David. Keep in mind this is a Novel.

I am reading "When We Collided" by Emery Lord in a physical paperback and listening to "Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine" by Gail Honeyman on audiobook.

I love YA and I started reviewing books on my blog. I am really enjoying focusing on reading this year (and yes we're only a week into 2018!)

The last couple of books I have been doing most of my reading digitally but recently I started Barack Obama's "Dreams from My Father" and Sarah Lamb's "White Saris and Sweet Mangoes", an anthropological book. And I am waiting to read "Tree of Ages" by Sarah Roethle and "Deadly Summer" by Denise Grover Swank.

I decided to finally start The Memory Painter by Gwendolyn Womack.
Pronouns: She/Her

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.
