High Summer Read-a-Thon

This is just what I need, an excuse not to do much on these very hot days except read, read, read! The High Summer Read-a-Thon, hosted by Michelle of Seasons of Reading and The True Book Addict, runs from yesterday (I know, I know, I'm late to the party) through Sunday, July 28th. I haven't got much on the calendar this week and Miss H is out of town for a couple of days (I can't tell you how much quieter that makes my house!) so I'm hoping to find some good chunks of time to read.

I'll be finishing up Nancy Bilyeau's The Chalice today. Next up, I think, will be Beth Hoffman's Looking For Me from the review shelf and then I'm pulling something off the book shelves of neglected books. Perhaps something that's been there for years, like Miriam Toewe's The Flying Troutmans, or one of the books from my classics challenge list. Of course the biggest challenge is always doing all of that reading without guilt. Wish me luck!

  2. Good luck with it! I was really tempted, but since I did the BookTube-a-Thon last week, I thought I'd give myself a break.

  3. I hope you're enjoying The Chalice. I think I mentioned in my last comment that I loved it. And you most definitely can't go wrong with Beth's book. It's amazing! Have a good reading week!
