Books I Finished This Week:
I started too many books so I have not finished any of them.
Books I am currently reading:
I am listening to Winter by Marissa Meyer. This young adult series just keeps getting better. I am also reading Death Comes to Pemberly by P.D. James. I love how this author is being true to Jane Austen’s style and voice. I am loving this one so far and I am savoring it and reading slower because of this. I am more than halfway through Daring Greatly. Everyone who works with people should read this book. I also started reading In The Wood by Tana French. I can see why she won the Edgar award for this one. And last, but not least, I started reading The Wahls Protocol: How I Beat Progressive MS Using Paleo Principles and Functional Medicine By Terry Wahls. So, now you can see why I didn’t finish anything.
What’s Next?
I am not sure what I will pick up next to read. I need to finish some of the books I am reading before picking up something new.
What are you reading this week? I would love to hear from you in the comments!
I just finished Cinder and really enjoyed it. I’m glad to hear the series keeps getting better and better. I liked how Meyer mixed just the right elements of the fairy tale into the story without it becoming a fractured retelling.
I can relate to starting too many books to finish any! I frequently have the same problem. I loved the Meyer series. I still can’t decide which is my favorite.
I agree with you that Marissa Meyer’s series just gets better and better. I’m always impressed by people who can have a lot of books on the go. I am usually limited by one audiobook, one fiction, and one nonfiction. Otherwise I find I don’t appreciate the books as much as I could.

I don’t know if I will ever get to Cinder, but I am aware that I’ve now missed them all. Maybe someday? It sounds like a lovely variety of books, Andrea. I read one chapter book, then picture books, can’t move around very much, except books I know I won’t finish, a few essays here, a few short stories, but not the full anthology. We all read differently, don’t we? Fun to hear!
I just read Broken Harbor by Tana French for my book club, she’s quite a good writer, and I enjoyed the Irish setting.
Oh wow, I am glad to hear that the Cinder series is getting better. I have Scarlet and Cress and really looking forward to read them soonest. Still a long ways away to Winter.
