This week I didn’t get even half the reading done I wanted to. It was rather disappointing. I got one book finished and some started. I wanted to have one other book finished before the end of the week but that just wasn’t going to happen. I also got back to doing Weekly Geeks which was great this week, I really enjoyed answering the question.
I finished Rabbit, Run by John Updike finally this week. I enjoyed the book but there were some times I had difficulty really getting into the book. I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the Rabbit books throughout the year. The copy I have has the second novel, Rabbit Redux in it too. I just need to take some time away from the book for a bit.
I’ve also got Sea of Poppies and there are some portions of the novel I’m really enjoying but others I could easily do without. There are several stories going on right now, which I’m sure will merge together at some point soon, but some of them I seem to be tuning out while I’m reading (not a good sign is it). I’m interested to see where Amitav Ghosh is going with this story. So far it has a similar feel to Lawrence Hills The Book of Negroes.
I’ll get the other book I started this week finished within the next few days so all is good on that front. Until next weeks review happy reading.
That's the Book!
