Escape Isn't the End

I finally finished Incarceron! I dedicated myself to finishing it this weekend, and I was able to succeed before 4:00pm on Sunday!! I admit it ended up being a better read than I anticipated in the beginning. However, I don't really feel the need to read the sequel. I'm happy with the way it ended, and I don't think I need to know what happens next. I started reading Paper Towns by John Green after finishing Incarceron. I've only read the prologue so far, so I don't have anything to report as yet. I'm a little more than eighty percent done with The American Heiress. I'm pretty sure I'll finish it some time this week. I'll probably be reading that during my lunch breaks while I focus on Paper Towns while I'm at home. Then again, I may get so consumed with Paper Towns that I put The American Heiress to the side. I tend to do that with John Green's books. I keep telling people that John Green is my spirit animal. His vlog kills me! Have you seen the one where he tries to see whether or not he is an octopus? Or the one where he becomes a rage squid?  Priceless! Excited to get into Paper Towns. I haven't been to see the movie yet; I want to read the book first.

Slow and Steady

I still have not managed to finish Incarceron nor have I finished The American Heiress. I am really enjoying The American Heiress, but I'm trying to give equal time to Incarceron because I want to finish it soon. I'm anxious to get to the next book in my stack, Paper Towns by John Green. It is the only John Green book I haven't read yet, and I am really anxious to start it. The stack, meanwhile has grown to nearly monumental proportions. (See picture below).

That stack is over 100 books strong. I dare say there are just as many, if not more, e-books downloaded onto my Samsung Galaxy Tab. (Sorry, I'm not one of the many Apple flunkies. Actually, no, I'm not sorry). I'm more than halfway done with both of my books right now, so I think I'll go read a bit before I settle in for the night. Tomorrow is a big day; we're having my cousin's baby shower. She's having a girl, so I'm ready to coo over all the cute baby things. However, I'm not looking forward to being asked a million times about my future family plans. A baby will get here when a baby gets here, and the timing of that is really between my husband, God, and myself. 

Guardians and an Heiress

I finished book three of the Ancient Guardians series last night! The Awakening ended on quite a cliffhanger so there better be a fourth book! I am dying to know what happens with Reece, Levi, the baby, Harrison, and Angie. S.L. Morgan has to write another book for this series. There are too many loose strings to leave the series like that. It is a very good series and I highly recommend it if you are in the mood for something fun. I especially recommend it if you like a little sci-fi with your love story. I really hope I don't have to wait too long for the next book.

I started another book today during my lunch break, The American Heiress by Daisy Goodwin. I'm only a chapter or so into it, but I like it so far. It reminds me very much of Downton Abbey, and I LOVE Downton Abbey. I've also been reading another book, I started it a while ago and put it aside to finish some other books. These days I keep two books at a time going, one e-book and one physical book. It is the physical book that I've kept on the back burner for awhile while. It is Incarceron by Catherine Fisher. I've read a few chapters so far, and I'm having a lot of trouble getting into it. At the moment I'm trying to get through it so that I can start reading something else. The next book on my stack once I finish Incarceron is Paper Towns by John Green. John Green is my favorite author right now. I have read three of his books so far: Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, and The Fault in Our Stars. I am officially a Nerdfighter. I am also completely caught up on the Song of Ice and Fire series, better known to a lot of people as Game of Thrones. Those books are a little hard to get through in places, but I do enjoy reading them. I have a feeling George R. R. Martin is going to die before he finishes the dang series though.
