“Monday’s Minutes” is a weekly post in which I track my bookish life.

Currently Reading:

• A History of Reading by Alberto Manguel
• The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear by Walter Moers
• The Essential Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson ed. by Brooks Atkinson
• Magician: Apprentice by Raymond E. Feist

Total pages read this week: 644

Total books for the year: 33 of 85. I forgot that today is the first day of #BoutofBooks! How did that happen? I got distracted by a new-to-me game called “Stardew Valley,” and everything else fell to the wayside. The only thing I did accomplish was getting nearly all of my Emerson reading completed for the online class I’m taking. My post for Bout of Books will be up shortly, especially since I’m in need of a digital detox, and a week-long reading challenge is the perfect prescription for that.

What are you reading (or not reading because of a game)?
