Monday, Oct. 3rd and I'm reading....

Hosted by Book Journey

It's Monday and I'm reading:
Paper Covers Rock by Jenny Hubbard--- I'm only a chapter in, but already I am captivated by the writing.









I'm listening to:
Chime by Franny Billingsley---I put this book on hiatus for a week so I could focus on banned books, but now I am back and hope to complete it soon.  It seems to be dragging a bit, but likely that is my fault.








I recently finished:
The Alchemist by Paolo Coelho---I listened to this on audiobooks. Thanks, Sheila, for the recommendation. It was as wonderful as you said! This was a triple re-read for me but I thoroughly enjoyed it again.








Up next:
Divergent by Veronica Roth--- I've been told this is a dystopian novel similar to Hunger Games.  Any thoughts on that?

And

Everybody Sees the Ants by A.S. King---I just received a copy Friday.  I'm looking forward to reading it as I'm a huge fan of the author's previous book, Please Ignore Vera Dietz.

What are you reading?
