Monday:
I received a package in the mail! Awesome. I had ordered all of the Throne of Glass books in the British paperback editions because of how pretty they were (plus I did not own them at this point and wanted them). After ordering these four books I promised myself no more book shopping, even though I got all four for a total of $20, including shipping. If you want to know how I managed to do that, check out my buying page.
Tuesday:
I found myself still in a major reading slump. Even though I had not read Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas I was not looking at starting a 700 page book in an attempt to get out of my slump. So I took a friend to our public library. As she was getting a card, I was checking out a few books that people had recommended for me. I wanted to get one nice and small 300 page book. I ended up with Ready Player One by Ernest Cline, Happily Ever After by Kiera Cass, and Blood Read Road by Moira Young.
That night I came back and started Ready Player One.
Wednesday:
I was officially out of my slump! I sat and read Ready Player One for a couple of hours after my classes. I was interested in the book because it was different from what I had found myself reading normally, and it was also very interesting.
Thursday:
I woke up early for a presentation at my school, had two 3 hour long classes, and then homework for the next day. I only managed to read 60 pages of Ready Player One, but that was more than I was expecting.
Friday:
Fridays are great because I only have one 3 hour class and then work for 3 hours, and at my job I am allowed to read as long as no one is in the gallery. I fully planned on going to work and reading for at least two of those hours. When I got there, I learned that I was helping set up for the new gallery installation. I read on my breaks, but did not get very far.
Overall not a bad week. I found a book I really enjoy, plus I have a few more that I am excited to start. I got out of my slump too.
Happy Reading
