It's Monday, What Are You Reading? #29

This week I need to put most of my focus on two library books whose renewals have been used up:

The novel, Take One Candle, Light a Room by Susan Straight which I raved about here two Monday's ago and in a subsequent Friday's Forays in Fiction post and which I actually managed to start more than two weeks before it was due (a rarity) but which I am still less than fifty pages in.

Sigh.

One might think I thrive on stressing deadlines to the breaking point.

Then there is Blogging for Dummies by Susannah Gardner and Shiane Birley which isn't due until the 28th but which entails more than just reading like taking notes and making lists of tasks which apply its suggestions to my own blogging habits.

It's a daunting task trying to get everything I may need. Probably I need my own copy of this on my reference shelf.




After I finish Take One Candle, the novel I pick up next will probably be Elizabeth Berg's The Last Time I Saw You which is the current Word Shaker's read at Book Journey and which I just discovered has a hold on it so won't renew once more on the 28th as I expected. Thank goodness it is a large print edition as that makes it much easier to read for longer stretches and faster to boot.
