Read last week:
One Day by David Nicholls |
One Day was a good read. I hear the movie with Anne Hathaway is very true to the book. Can't wait!
Reading Now:
Freakonomics by Levitt & Dubner |
I'm currently enjoying Freakonomics. I usually alternate between fiction and non-fiction. I think this book is very accessible, whether or not you have background in economics or statistics.
Up Next:
Room by Emma Donoghue |
I've heard lots about this book, both good and bad. I'm going to see for myself soon as I finish Freakonomics.
My To-Read list is already incredibly long, but I'm always taking recommendations. I often change my mind about which book to read at the last minute because of a friend's review or recommendation. So tell me, is there something else I should read next?
Love and (a book) light,

Room has been on my to get list forever! I hope that you enjoy it and I will watch for your review.
ReplyDeleteAt first, I didn't think I had much for my Monday Review, but I stayed up way too last last night reading.
I am excited to read One Day!
ReplyDeleteRoom is on my bookshelf waiting to be read. Just gotta get through a bunch of others first.
ReplyDeleteFreakonomics is a great book. It's entertaining, accessible for people with and without an economic degree, and is a book you can talk about with people and apply to real life. Enjoy!
I hope you enjoy your books, although I didn't really love either Freakonomics or Room, but I think I'm in the minority.
ReplyDeleteI decided not to go with Room, hope you enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteFifty Shades of Grey is a must read :-)

I think I'm going to be the last person to read One Day, I have a copy but it never calls to me. I read Room in one sitting but then I had no idea what the book was about other than a room so I liked the not knowing at first. I thought it was very clever if not to everyone's tastes!
ReplyDeleteMy weekly round up
I have seen Room around the blogging world and bookstore browsing. I honestly don't know much about it, but I did get my hands on a copy, so it is my list of TBR. Hope you enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteHere is mine for this week.

I enjoyed One Day and Freakonomics was interesting but not really my thing.
ReplyDeleteHaven't read Room yet but it's on my TBR list.

I can't wait to see how you like Room! It's one of the best books that I've read this year.
