LIFE LATELY

I have been working really hard to get back on track with my reading and blogging this week. I'm happy I have been able to post and read a lot more than I have in the past few months.  I did buy a few books but wasn't pleasantly surprised to receive When Elephants Fly which deals with mental health issues and wasn't on my radar.

#CurrentlyReading
If They Come for Us by Fatimah Asghar (OUT August 7th)- A wonderful poetry collection about being a young Pakistini Muslim Women in contemporary America.

Temper by Nicky Drayden (OUT August 7)- An South African based fantasy where twins share vices and virtues. I'm really enjoying this book so far full of magic, oddities and humor.

Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn- After beginning to watch the HBO adaptation I've decided to listen to the audio book, so I can compare the two. This book follows Camille reporting on two murders of young children in her hometown, full of mystery and drama. I'm already half way through and patiently waiting for the mystery to unfold. 

How did your reading go this week?
