OK, so I know the Thankfully Reading weekend doesn’t officially start ’til tomorrow. But since Jack and I won’t be celebrating Thanksgiving until tomorrow, I decided to get a head start today. Hey, there are no rules, right??

The day before yesterday, I began reading The Lotus Eaters by Tatjana Soli, and so far I’m enjoying it quite a bit. Since our next vacation will be to Thailand in February, my to-read list has tilted more toward South Asian literature; later I’m going to check out S. Krishna’s review database for recommendations!

I’m also working on several reviews this weekend; I’ve really gotten behind over the last few weeks due to several unexpected events. (More on that another time.) I promise, in December I’ll be much better.

But for now, I’m back to reading!

5:00 p.m.
I took a short break from reading to take Tink for a walk before the sun set. We let her off the leash in the woods for the first time today, and she enjoyed herself quite a bit.

Now I’m back to reading. I’m also plugging through Perspectives on Social Media Marketing today when I need breaks from The Lotus Eaters. What different books they are! But both good in their own right.

As I guessed, I wasn’t able to do as much reading today. But Thanksgiving dinner was delightful! And I was able to sneak away for a bit; The Lotus Eaters was calling my name.

I doubt I’ll get much further in it tonight, though, with the Washington Capitals on (C-A-P-S Caps Caps Caps!) and a party to attend tonight. But I’ll be sure to check in tomorrow!
