Book Lair discussion

March, the Sprint month for half the globe, is just around the corner!

What do you plan to read?

I'll try to squeeze all these into March... hopefully.
Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained
The Call of Cthulhu and Other Weird Stories
La ciudad y los perros (The Time of the Hero)
Ivanhoe
Metamorphoses
Anne's House of Dreams
Spice & Wolf, Vol. 11: Side Colors II

Ooh that's a big list, hope you can make it!

I hope so too. I'm back to school in March, so... anyway, I'll manage.

I'm hoping to get through The Tsar of Love and Techno, Wolf By Wolf and Salt to the Sea. If I do manage to read all three then I might start Me Before You

So, I'm a bit late this month, since I just got back home last night, with a terrible plane trip back home (stuck in Moscow airport because of the snow...).

Beside what I already mentionned in the February thread, I also read:


And I would like to read:


I might also continue on reading the stories of short stories from Belizean authors. Not quite sure yet. Or maybe After Dark if we do the buddy read this month. Not quite sure yet.

But mostly, I need to write reviews for all the books I read. Since I was on the road, with patchy internet connection, I read a lot, but didn't write much about it.

Well, right now I am reading Alien Child by Pamela Sargent (Netgalley), then I plan to move on to Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs and then The Magician by D.A. Pupa, a gift from the author.

Not sure I can squeeze them all in March but we'll see.

Well, I was not really on track this month with what I had planned. Some books were already mentionned in the February thread, but here is the final list of what I read this month:



To be fair, I haven't finished this last book yet, but since it is really short, I think I'll have finished it by tonight.

I realise, seeing them all lined up like this, that it's a lot of books. But the books I have been reading this year are much shorter than my average book from last year.

Wow that really is a lot of books, even if short.

I only managed to read 4, most of them also fairly short:

Well, page-wise, it looks like you read more than me (I am not counting Hannu Rajaniemi: Collected Fiction, since I actually read most of it in February).

Oh well I am very proud of myself then, since I feel I have been reading close to nothing O.o

At least comparing to how much I used to read before I got my current job.

It's not so much that I want to be able to say that I have read a lot of books. It's that not having enough time to read makes me have trouble focusing on the story, which is quite troublesome.

Sometimes I do have a bit of time but am so tired I will choose other entertaining options that do not require such focus.

Oh well, hope this passes soon.
