Last week was quite eventful as I hosted my High Summer Read-a-Thon. While the event was a success, I did not get much reading done, although people keep telling me that my pages read in Anna Karenina should really count as two (thanks for that, guys!).
What's going on in my/the reading world....
After some chatter we had on Twitter during the read-a-thon, I have decided to host a write-a-thon in August or September. I have to decide when and I'd like your help with that if you're interested in participating. There is a poll up in the top right sidebar. Please vote!
I am hosting a Wolf Hall read-a-long with Kai from Fiction State of Mind starting next weekend on August 4. You can find out all the details HERE.
What I've been reading....
Currently reading:
Twenty Two Faces by Judy Byington (review tomorrow)
Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
Graceling by Kristin Cashore (for TuesBookTalk...almost finished!)
A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin (yes, I'm still reading this)
Middlemarch by George Eliot (and yes, I'm still reading this too)
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith (will finish this week)
Coming up:
Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel
Not sure what else! Haven't decided.
Finished recently:
Uh...nothing!
