Libroqueue 2022.07…
It was a weird reading month. Started slow, picked up in the middle, and slowed down again at the end.
Here’s what I planned to read in June:
- Val Kilmer’s I’m Your Huckleberry: A Memoir
- Brene Brown’s Dare to Lead
- Gary Paulsen’s Northwind
- Delia Owens’ Where the Crawdads Sing
- Ted Fox’s Showtime at the Apollo
- Scott Snyder’s A.D. After Death
Here’s what I actually read…
- Val Kilmer’s I’m Your Huckleberry
- Gary Paulsen’s Northwind
- Mark Manson’s The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life
- Jacquie McNish and Sean Silcoff’s Losing the Signal: The Untold Story Behind the Extraordinary Rise and Spectacular Fall of BlackBerry
- Scott Snyder’s A.D. After Death
At the last second, we changed our book club book from Dare to Subtle. I tried twice to start Crawdads and was bored to tears both times and replaced it with Signal. I got about halfway through Apollo and am liking it, but didn’t want to carry that weighty tome in my carry-on luggage and decided not to finish it until after vacation.
For July, I will read/finish:
Glennon Doyle’s Untamed for the book club
Richard K. Morgan’s Altered Carbon, book 1 (I fully expect this one to take me a while, maybe two months)
Emily St. John Mandel’s Sea of Tranquility
Ted Fox’s Showtime at the Apollo: The Epic Tale of Harlem’s Legendary Theater
I think I’ll just stick with four for this month. I really want to see how I do with Altered Carbon with as little pressure from other books as possible (Untamed and Sea are audiobooks). I may add another graphic novel if I find something interesting but I’m on a bit of a slowdown there lately and want to get back into it more naturally.
