So far I’ve had a good time reading and joining in on the Instagram prompts. If you’d like to follow me on Instagram , click here.
Progress
Monday
Pages Read: 84
Time Read: 3 hours (I’m a slow reader)
Book Finished: None
Currently Reading: ANXIOUS PEOPLE by Frederik Backman
Comments: I’m really enjoying ANXIOUS PEOPLE so far. It’s funny and sad. I’m very curious as to what the whole picture is. It reminds me a little bit of TRULY MADLY GUILTY by Liane Moriarty.
Tuesday
Pages Read: 38 pages
Time Read: 1 hour
Book Finished: None

Book Finished: KEEP MOVING by Maggie Smith

Comments: I started feeling sick (not COVID–have to specify) on Tuesday and I’ve just been feeling worse and worse, especially today. When I’m feeling this sick, I don’t often like to read because I can’t concentrate on the words. Fortunately, my IRL book club book for January that I put on hold at the library came available and it was a really easy read.
Friday

Comments: I felt too sick today to read. As I said on Thursday, I don’t often like to read when I’m feeling this sick because I can’t concentrate on the words. Hopefully, tomorrow will be better.

Comments: I’m glad I felt well enough to read for so long today, especially since the later the day got the worse I felt.
Let’s make this a great week!
I followed you in IG @winesaboutbooks. I enjoyed Anxious People, not my favorite Backman book though, and I definitely want to watch the Netflix adaptation soon! Happy BoB!
I didn’t know there was a Netflix adaptation. I’ll have to look into it after I finish the book. 🙂
Oh and I love your middle name. 😉
Thanks! It’s the favorite part of my name. 😀
I struggled a bit with Anxious People but I was listening to it and now that I finished it and look back, it might just be a book that needs to be read in print and digested a bit slower.
Yeah, I think it would depend on who the voice actor is, maybe. Plus, audiobooks are even slower than I am at reading. Ha!
I’m glad you are enjoying Anxious People. It is an amazing book. Happy reading!
Thanks! I am too! I’m glad you and the other book clubbers convinced me to read it.
