Today is Christmas Eve. Today is my birthday. Today I am fifteen. Today I buried my parents in the backyard. Neither of them were beloved.I like The Death of Bees so far. The writing style is pretty different, so I'm enjoying the change of pace.
I'm going to catch up on some reviews this week. I read some more Jack Reacher and some cute middle grade reads. I also read a Nelson Demille story that I hated called Rendezvous. I may or may not review that one.
I hope everyone has a fantastic reading week. Be sure to let me know what you are reading this week (or leave me a link so I can visit!).

I completely forgot about this book. Thanks for putting it back on my radar.
ReplyDeleteEven though its been many years I remember how hard it was trying to read with a newborn in the house. It became much easier once they were on a sleep schedule until then I'd read whenever I could which usually meant while cooking, bathroom breaks, or before bed.
I didn't read much with my other two kids, but it is so much easier now with the Kindle.
DeleteSounds like your life in very busy. I'm glad you are finding some time to read. The Death of Bees does sound intriguing. My Monday report is here. Stop by if you get a chance and happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThe Death of Bees has turned out to be a pretty unique read.

DeleteCongratulations on the baby! I with I had a Kindle when I had my first child, as that was the only way I was able to get any reading done with my second.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kacy! Exactly. I wouldn't be reading much at all if it weren't for the Kindle. I think I may start listening to a bit more audio right now, too.
DeleteOh man, I am going to be in your shoes in May! I'm glad you are finding a few minutes to read in the middle of all that new baby craziness. Congrats on the little one!
ReplyDeleteAw, congrats, Lindsey! It will be such a special time! :D Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI read this last week. I can't wait to hear what you think.
ReplyDeleteBecause I'm all morbid, I love this cover! I'm glad you're liking it and can't wait for your review!
ReplyDelete'The Death of Bees' is gloomy, somber, and brutally realistic but darkly comedic as well. Enthralling and thought-provoking, you'll find yourselves racing to finish to find out these unforgettable girls' fate.
