Did everyone see the snow yesterday? I love a good snowfall, even if it doesn't stick. Hard to believe winter is already here. I hope everyone is staying warm.

What are you reading this week? I finally gave up and returned a bunch of library books. I had to be honest with myself and admit that I haven't gotten to them in months so I probably won't get to them before the end of the year. My goal is the finish what library books I have out before 2020. This way I can start the new year reading books I already own. It was hard to do. I hate admitting defeat. Lol.

I did manage to finish some books over the long holiday weekend. I finished Ninth House which I loved. It is dark and gritty and very macabre. But I enjoyed all the characters and I thought the world Bardugo built was fascinating. I'm excited for the sequel. I also managed to read Conceal, Don't Feel, just in time for Frozen 2. The Disney Twisted Tales can be hit or miss but this one was actually really good. I might even prefer it in some ways to the movie.

Currently, I'm reading The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern. It's a book lover's siren call. A hidden world full of stories and magical doors appear to lead you there? Please sign me up. I love the lyrical way she writes. And of course, there is a nice little mystery happening. It was so hard to put the book down to go to sleep. But, I have tomorrow off so I might be up a bit late tonight to finish it. :D

Ninth House (Alex Stern, #1) by Leigh Bardugo Conceal, Don't Feel by Jen Calonita The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern

Ann (ann-fracturedfiction) | 516 comments I've been reading more graphic novels, I've read the first three Summit and the first two Batwoman graphic novels. I'm currently reading Vendetta in Death by J.D. Robb, and then I will be caught up, after that I think I want to read Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. I caught some of her talks on YouTube and am interested to try her writing. And this is November, so once again I am woefully behind on my NaNo novel, so must start writing.
