Hi friends! I don’t know if you are participating in the mini Reading Rush this weekend, but I have been trying to dedicate some time to reading myself. So I thought that I would go ahead and answer the tag questions that Ariel posted. Without any further ado, let’s just jump straight in!

⓵ How is your reading going while staying at home?
My reading is going pretty okay! I have been going through cycles of reading a lot, then not reading at all while I binge watch TV instead. So far I have finished 9 books since quarantine started. It could be a lot more, but it could also be a lot less.
⓶ Where have you been reading at home?
Right here on my couch. It’s very comfy and the best reading spot. If not here then on my bed. I’ve also been listening to audiobooks, which I listen to all over the place, including in the car.
⓷ Best book you’ve read since isolation?
I reread one of my favorite series, Dragon Slippers by Jessica Day George. These books simply make me feel happy inside, so it was a joy to read them again. I can’t tell if these books are actually that good, or if they just have a major nostalgia factor for me (maybe both), but either way I was grinning the whole time I was reading these. What good fun!
⓸ What’s your favorite feel good book?
I have lots of feel good books, including the one I just mentioned, but let’s talk about this one, since it was recently announced that it is being picked up by Netflix. The Selection is trash... but it’s exactly my kind of trash. Imagine you mixed The Bachelor with The Hunger Games, and sprinkled a little royalty on top, and you’ve got yourself The Selection. It is addicting and fun and simply makes me feel great inside. Highly recommend.
⓹ What is a book you wish you could buy or borrow from the library?
I’m honestly pretty well stocked on reading material right now, since I own lots of books I haven’t read yet, but I don’t own many graphic novels. Since this is a genre I’ve been trying to explore more, this is a sad fact. I wouldn’t say no to a copy of “In Real Life”, because it looks like a really sweet story and the art looks amazing.
⓺ Is there an author you want to shout out at this time?
Hmmm... how can I not pick my man Fredrik Backman? Every book that I have read by him has been completely phenomenal. His writing takes my breath away and his stories leave me in tears. If you haven’t read anything by him, do yourself a favor and pick up one of his books.
⓻ What is your Reading Rush TBR?
I don’t really have a set TBR, but I will say that I am currently reading two books. I am listening to “The Great Alone” by Kristin Hannah, and I am starting “Firefight” by Brandon Sanderson.
