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

Currently Reading:

• The Last Kingdom by Bernard Cornwell

Finished:

• Sixpence House by Paul Collins

DNF:

• Lament by Maggie Stiefvater

Challenges:

#ShelfLove – 8 of 51 books from my TBR.

Total pages read this week: 219

Total books for the year: 8 of 90.

After I got my new library card, I placed a bunch of books on hold that were on my wish list but that had very few copies available and fairly long hold lists. My thinking was that would give me plenty of time to read books I already have and then be able to read the library books as they came available. I did finish all the books I’d been reading since before the move and started Lament, a library book, but now my holds are starting to come in already; The Last Kingdom becoming available over the weekend. I went ahead and DNF’d Lament then because as much as I wanted to like it, I didn’t, and it was painful to read.
