If you were here for my What’ I’m Into – Keeping Me Sane for February, you will know that I have been exhausted, dealing with a ton of anxiety and was stressed out. That made for a very unusual reading month for me. I only completed two and a half books!
Read
- Save the Cat! Write a Novel by Jessica Brody. I think most of us at some point want to write a novel and I am no exception. But I had no idea where to start. Save the Cat gave me a place to start.
- Playing Big: Find Your Voice, Your mission, Your Message by Tara Mohr. I first found out about this book in 2012 but it was a case of right book, wrong time. This month, it was right book, right time. I had an epiphany while leaving a meeting this month. I have been “playing small” in my life. I have been doing less than what I am capable of and even less of what I want to do in the road. Tara (you know I love the book when I call the author by their first name) is going to help me with this. I’m so happy I read it. I am already implementing a number of strategies and have referenced the book many times since my initial reading.
- The Girl in the Plane by Katherine Center. True, this is a short story but Goodreads counts it as a book so I am going to also. It is the connecting story between Katherine’s two books: How to Walk Away and Things You Save in the Fire, both of which I have read and enjoyed.
Currently Reading
- The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix Harrow. I wanted to enjoy this one slowly, especially after hearing Alix Harrow discuss it at the Modern Mrs. Darcy Book Club meeting in February 2020. I am really looking forward to finishing this up when I am finish reading the books I need to read.
- The Wedding Party by Jasmine Guillory. I have loved reading lighter fare during this season and will finish this one soon, if I haven’t already done so, by this post.
I didn’t abandoned any books this month.
What about you? How has this season affected your reading life? What have you enjoyed recently?
And per usual, I am linking up with Modern Mrs. Darcy’s Quick Lit post. If you are here, because of her, I’m grateful. Thank you for being here.
enjoy life…

Hi, Shannan I’m currently reading Tattoos On The Heart by Gregory Boyle. It’s such a heartfelt and tender book! I can’t wait to dig into Eat Joy: Stories & Comfort Food from 31 Celebrated Writers by Natalie Eve Garrett by Natalie Eve Garrett (and more). I am thinking of everyone out there and wish you all health, peace, and security in this challenging time.
Sounds like you have some great ones lined up. Thanks for being here.
I only finished 3 books myself in February so I hear you. And I may not even meet that mark in March. 😦 These are anxious times, both as a community and personally. I just heard tonight that Limestone County (that’s mine) now has a confirmed Coronavirus case.
May we all just stay home and read.
Yes they are. And since my library has closed, maybe, just maybe, I can make a dent in my personal TBR shelf. Let’s read. And here’s to hoping things get better very soon.
