February 23 | Currently Reading

Oy vey, it has been quite some time since I've posted an update on the blog. Mostly it's because I've been on a long hiatus from fiction. Not counting the books I've been reading to my kids, I've only been reading nonfiction books. I've read some really amazing books, but I've never really shared any opinions on nonfiction books on the blog before. It gave me a nice excuse to step away from blogging after all of the hacking and whatnot and regroup. I finally found the time to play with a few things behind the scenes on my blog, too.

I'm slowly getting back into reading fiction. I'm hoping blogging will fall in line along with it. I'm seriously out of touch in so many ways.



Revival by Stephen King
Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel




A Soprano on Her Head by Eloise Ristad (More nonfiction. I did say slowly.)


I'm not sure what I will read next. Station Eleven was the perfect read for the mood I'm in. Maybe I'll check out the next book in the Silo series.


What are you reading this week? Have you read anything really fantastic lately? Let me know in the comments or leave me a link!

    There's nothing like a good bit of non-fiction. I'd love to hear about some of your favourite ones.

    Stephen King and a classic .... great way to get back into reading fiction.

    I have seen a lot of hype about Station Eleven and a few bloggers have really backed it - hope you are enjoying it :D

    I can't read non fiction, it puts me to sleep. I can browse it and find sections I'm interested in, but if I try to start at the beginning and read through, it just doesn't work.

    Station Eleven made my list of favourite reads in 2014. It was so good!

    We were discussing reading Station Eleven for book club. I hope you do a review on Revival. I'm curious about it.

    I don't usually read nonfiction although I used to. Mark Twain! I need to read some of that... :)

    Sometimes taking a break is just what we need! Station Eleven is so wonderful - I'm glad you got to read it!
