Last week was not made for reading. We are going to be moving soon so I spent most of the week/weekend packing and hauling stuff into our PODS unit. My kids were at grandmas over the weekend so the only downtime I would have normally spent reading I spent watching TV. I do not get to watch much (good) TV with three kids in the house.
Last week posted my review for Greg Gifune's House of Rain. I also posted about the banned books I read with my kids.
I started reading The Witch of Blackbird Pond, but I didn't finish reading it before Doctor Sleep arrived. I had to start Doctor Sleep immediately and so far it's even better than I was expecting.
Did you read anything special for banned books week? I'd love to hear what you are reading this week. Let me know in the comments or leave me a link!

I've got Doctor Sleep too, but I'm still working on finishing The Shinint before starting it. SO excited to get to it.

I would love to read The Witch of Blackbird Pond again! I haven't touched it since high school, but remember loving it at the time.

As the reviews trickle in on Doctor Sleep, and I am really only skimming them as I want to be surprised when I get it, it seems King has hit another one out of the park. I'm so happy about that. I am hoping this one is not too gory or pure horror-- I love his way around a psychological suspense thriller with just a dash of horror in it :) Have a good week. I didn't read The Witch of Blackbird Pond, but I managed the children/YA section of a major book retailer once and that was a popular one. Enjoy reading!
ReplyDeleteI didn't read anything banned last week, sorry to say. Didn't plan for that very well I guess. House of Rain sounds good might be a good book to read in October. :)
ReplyDeleteI read The Witch of Blackbird Pond again for a class a few months ago. I last read it in high school. Such a good one. I really should read some Stephen King this October! Perfect.
ReplyDeleteI am reading DOCTOR SLEEP as well. Unfortunately I didn't get to it early enough this weekend so I'll have to stop to do some review stuff :( It's excellent so far though - I wish I could have played hooky with it today!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to hear that Doctor Sleep is good thus far.
