To play along, just answer the following three questions:
• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?
What are you currently reading?
I admire people who can manage to read several books at one time. I'm usually only a one-book girl but this week I'm joining the multiple readers with both Friday Nights, by Joanna Trollope and Fast Friends, by Jill Mansell on the go. I have to admit I'm preferring the latter, but I'm almost halfway through Friday Nights so I don't want all that effort to go to waste!
What did you recently finish reading?
It's amazing how many books one can get through during a weekend of lazing in the sun. I managed to get through Room by Emma Donoghue (very disturbing!) and Everyone Worth Knowing, by Lauren Weisberger (much needed light relief after Room).
What do you think you’ll read next?
I actually really don't know. I started The Rhinestone Button by Gail Anderson-Dargatz the other week and haven't made much progress on that so I might pick that one up again. Otherwise I have a Diane Chamberlain book awaiting my attention as well as The Autograph Man by Zadie Smith. Although this weekend is another beach weekend so I could quite well end up taking some chicklit with me - perhaps Marian Keyes or two!
I have yet to read anything by Zadie Smith, will happen one day though.

Thanks for visiting my website!
ReplyDeleteI read Room a few months ago--my partner was working at HarperCollins at the time and got to meet Emma Donoghue. Apparently she's very nice! :)
Hi!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had great book week. I'm one of those people that can read multiple books. I can have up to 5 going at a time. Sometimes it gets confusing especially if the genres are the same. Thanks for stopping by my place. Have a great day!

I have read about the Rhinestone Button somewhere! I'd like to read it!! Nice list :)
ReplyDeleteRoom was disturbing on so many levels. I wasn't a fan of it either and I know that some fans of the book find that disturbing. Will you post a review of Room?

Oh thank goodness - someone who's not reading vampires and/or paranormal fiction ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! I haven't read Room but I keep seeing it everywhere! I might have to give it a go!
ReplyDeleteThe premise of ROOM is disturbing but I enjoyed it. It is certainly not something I would read on a regular basis and I am glad Emma Donaghue wrote it from a child's perspective because that helps take the edge off the story somewhat. I have to admit, Emma Donaghue did an excellent job of portraying the story.
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to read ROOM but I'm afraid it's too disturbing for me. Until now, I'm not decided yet if I'm going to read that book. I hope to read your review. :)
