It's Monday (5)

It's Monday, what are you reading is hosted by Book Journey. Check it out.

I did not have a very good reading week last week.
I finished Anna Dressed in Blood.
I finished Ashes.
Yeah. That's about it.
Sigh.
So this week it hit me that I am still 9 books short of my goal for the year. This may not sound like a big deal, but I am notorious for not reading very much in December-it just does not happen.
So, I need to pick up the pace for the rest of November. This week's goal:
read (links go to Goodreads)
Scarlet:

Unforsaken
and something else. I have not yet decided which one yet.

Wish me luck. What are you reading?

Scarlet does sound good! I love Robin Hood, although I am partial to the Disney fox version myself...
Happy Reading!

I am currently reading Crossed, I don't know why when I didn't really get into Matched.

Wow so lucky of you to have these two to read! I'm reading One Million Suns, the sequel to Across the Universe. I don't know why I got the sequel, but I feel damn lucky and I'm loving it.

Teddy Bear Storytime

Tonight's storytime followed the same format I use for all of my day storytimes as I have temporarily suspended my idea of doing storytime in reverse in order to get the kids sleepy. They only seem to run out into the library to pick out movies and books and the effect is lost. So here is what we did tonight. Our theme was teddy bears, but our night storytime is always wear jammies, bring a lovey, and low action. My opening song is Hello Bubbles which I learned from Read Sing Play here . BTW this woman is a storytime goddess and I have picked up many great ideas on her blog. Story the 1st: The Red Hat by Lita Judge  Why? Because I want to get across to my kids that books do not always have to have words in order for us to "read" them, and I want to give pre-readers a chance to feel proud they finished a book on their own. I plan to try to read or highlight at least one wordless read for the next couple of storytimes. Flannel Board: Ten in the Bed I used a mod

Nebula Award Nominees 2017- Short Stories

This post is my progress report on my self-challenge to read all of the 2017  Nebula nominees! So far, I have completed the short story category and most of the the novelettes. I have 3 novellas and 3 novels to go. Nebula Award Nominees 2017- Short Stories What fun! I would never have read any of these stories on my own, although I expect some of these will show up in some future anthologies. I have one personal gripe, and this will come up again in another category, and that is the death of the horror genre. Because they have just killed "horror" and lumped scary stories in with science fiction and fantasy, we get stories like Sabbath Wine trying to compete with Our Talons Can Crush Galaxies and it's not fair. It really is apples and oranges. Don't believe me about horror? Go find the horror section in the Barnes and Noble. Go ahead, I'll wait.       Griping over, this selection of stories was AWESOME and heavy on the fantasy stories. Seasons and Ward
