Sunday Salon

First of all let me say that my intention to read a book a day has been a big fat failure. I made the mistake of telling some friends and they decided I needed to got out of the house and make some real friends  and took me to lakes and other places of entertainment. While I had fun there was little to no reading to be done during these trips. I think this week will be different as we are all inside trying to stay out of the oppressive heat. Speaking of heat it was HOT here in the last week. While I like hot weather I do hope it cools down a bit as I like reading outside and in the heat and humidity that makes it impossible.

I did finish and review one book History Of Love. That book was sooo good. I cant believe that it took me this long to read it. I read it in one day it was that good. I could not put it down. Like I said in my review, if you haven't read it already Go… Read… It… Now!

I am reading Hardboiled Wonder Land and the End of the World today. This is my first Haruki Murakami book. I am enjoying it so far. I cant wait to see how it all comes together in the end. Have any of you read it?

Hopefully starting this week I will be able to read a book a day. How do you all explain to friends that you would rather really be reading?

Whenever I think I'm going to read faster and finish more books, something always does interfere.

I started the week out really well, finishing my first book in a day. It went downhill from there. Having to watch my youngest grandson for two days (one that was really long), probably contributed more than anything else to my inability to finish more books.

Here's MY SUNDAY SALON POST
I have read that Murakami and enjoyed it. While I don't know if it's his best, it was very good. I have a review on my blog, if you want to see when you're finished with it. On the subject of getting out versus reading, good for you on getting out. Reading is all well and good, but you need to live life too. :)
