This month’s reading report is a little later than I had planned, but to be completely honest, life has been overwhelming me lately. I sat down last week to write this post, but the words just wouldn’t come at all. And let’s not mention the fact that I completely skipped publishing a reading update last month. (Oops!) Anyway, even though circumstances have not been ideal for reading a lot lately, I have finally finished a few books, and I am only a little bit “behind” where I should be in my reading goals at this point in the year. Let’s…

August in nearly over, and I find myself reluctant even now to post a reading update because, honestly, it just hasn’t felt like I have made a lot of progress.

This mid-winter thaw finds me in a transition not just between months, but also between books. I finished up a couple of things at the end of January and have yet to fill their places in my reading rotation. Perhaps as I write this post, it will help me decide…

Before I get into my thoughts on A Room with a View, I need to apologize to those of you who subscribe to posts via email. The post I published yesterday had a major formatting problem when it transferred to email, and none of the books I was trying to share with you were visible. I’m so sorry for that inconvenience. If you click over to the actual blog website, you can see all the titles and links there, but I should really have been more careful about checking that everything was going to work before hitting publish.
