I'm reading three books right now, 2 of them are re-reads that are part of 2 different series

the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella (currently reading Shopaholic takes Manhattan)

and Living Dead in Dallas by Charlaine Harris (the Sookie Stackhouse series that the vampire show True Blood was based off of)

The new book I'm reading is called The Art of Taking it Easy by Dr. Brian King (the author is both a psychologist and a comedian)

Back to this eh? I am reading some books. Can't remember them off the top of my head though. Some book that's actually a Great Course - you know - that website the Great Courses, and it's about reading. Anyway, that is what I'm reading. (Listening to).

I love the great courses! Rufus Fears fears on books in general are the best, right up there with Michael Sugrue's stuff on there. Also, if you're into Philosophy or psychology, give Daniel Robinson a try. = )

Hows the book going so far?

I finished Legends and Lattes, and I loved it and highly recommend it especially for anyone who’s into high fantasy and wants a cozier book about an orc opening a coffee shop

Now I’m reading:
The Library of Lost and Found by Phaedra Patrick
