I am planning to participate in another readathon, for the month of June. It's Dr. Who inspired and I love Dr. Who so here we go. I'll post the prompts and my picks below.

Reading Style and Current Reads
So, I find people's reading styles curious. Mostly, are you a one-book-at-a-time reader, do you read more than one book at a time, or are you maniacal like I am and read like a dozen at at time? I am such a mood reader that I usually have quite a few books started at any… Continue reading Reading Style and Current Reads

We Read in Moments of Time
I took some time to re-read my previous posts (from the earlier days I kept this blog/site) and it has been interesting to reflect on growth and changes that have happened over the years. It made me happy to read about the joy so many of these books provided and the freedom with which I… Continue reading We Read in Moments of Time

D. Sui -… Continue reading Choosing a Library Book to Read
Lots (and lots) of New Books!
I spent about a year not reading for health reasons, and I was super excited to get back into reading at the end of last year. Part of that excitement was re-discovering BookTubers and BookTokers and Bookstagramers and part of that excitement was finding information about read-a-thons. And that enthusiasm led to a shopping spree!… Continue reading Lots (and lots) of New Books!

The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty - DNF - 109 pp, 27% I went to a book club last month. Book club was fun. We read Red Winter. The book was fine.

Mid-Year Highly Rated Books
Slightly different from my mid-year favorites, these are books I rated well, but did not make it onto my favorite list. Fiction Interpreter of Maladies by Jhumpa Lahiri These short stories sat with me, and I remembered them well after reading them. They had weight and sometimes inspired lots of thoughts. I very much look… Continue reading Mid-Year Highly Rated Books
