July 29 | Currently Reading

I'm so happy to have my reading mojo back. I normally read much less in the summertime so I'm happy to be in a groove right now.

Last week I posted reviews for Joyland by Stephen King and Horns by Joe Hill. Hmm. I didn't even notice what I did there until just now.

I listened to The Rithmatist by Brandon Sanderson on audio. I seriously loved that book. I will have a review out for that this week.


I started reading The Crown by Nancy Bilyeau which is really great so far. I'm also still reading Life Among the Savages by Shirley Jackson. I just downloaded the audio for Hounded by Kevin Hearne from my library so I'll be listening to that this week as well.


I hope everyone is having a really great summer. Let me know what you are reading in the comments or leave me a link!

  1. I'm glad you enjoyed the King book. I might pick it up sometime..I realize he released it in paperback not kindle, to help out the indie bookstores, which is a good thing. I tried beginning of Horns, not for me. I'm not sure if I will like any Joe Hill, I didn't finish Heart-Shaped Box either. Did you read his newest yet? Name escapes me atm, but title is his license plate number. Enjoy your week!

  2. Can't wait to see what you think about THE CROWN. I'm totally ready to dive into Philippa Gregory's Cousins War now, hopefully before the show starts, but not until I finish DANCE WITH DRAGONS. I've got a free week in my reading schedule and am taking full advantage!

  3. Oooh I've been saving The Crown for when I'm in a historical fiction kinda mood. It sounds fantastic! Really love Kevin Hearne's series... which reminds me I have some catching up to do in it. :) Hope you love your reads!

  5. Life Among the Savages looks like a fun read. Anything that involves lots of kids and lots of books has to be enjoyable!

  7. The crown does sound good. I am not a horror fan or a Stephen King fan. I have tried a few and decided they are not for me. Come see my Monday wrap-up. Have a great reading week.
