November Book Report

I guess my reading slowed down a bit for November. I was working on finishing up some edits to get my manuscript to my crit partner, so that left little time for reading. I did get a couple read! (I also hit my yearly goal. Maybe subconsciously I stopped reading as much because of that?)

Of Poseidon | Anna Banks: I really liked this one. It’s more of a “bubble gum” read. This book isn’t going to move mountains and change world, but it is super entertaining. I liked it enough to pick up the next one!

Fires of Calderon | Lindsay Cummings: This was very, very much like a mash up between Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. Fun book and going to be a fun series. I will always love Lindsay—she’s the best.

A Singular Whimsical Problem | Rachel McMillan: My single problem with this book is that it’s a novella—I wanted more! I love Jem and Merinda and DeLuca and Jasper. The first book in the series comes out in March and I can tell you I am going to be addicted!

Currently reading Of Triton, the second book in the Syrena legacy, and The Darkest Minds (hooked on this series too!)

What are you reading this week?

The winner from Rachel’s book is Gabrial. Congratulations!! Don’t forget there is another giveaway going on for a couple more days!

Also, I posted on Christmas traditions over on the lovely Emilie’s blog! Check it out!

A Saturday in the life of an author on deadline. A Saturday in the life of an author on deadline. 

10.07 AM - arrive at the coffee shop (where I actually got a parking spot AND a seat at my favorite table!) 

11.08 AM - finally get some coffee. The line was long and I kept waiting for it to get shorter.

1.56 PM - trying not to panic because there’s still so much I want to get done and the coffee shop closing in a little over an hour.

2.53 PM - closing time. Time to pack up and leave. I’m also getting hungry, so place a Chick-fil-A order.

3.26 PM - lunch acquired. 

3.48 PM - it just so happens that the Chick-fil-A shares a parking lot with a Barnes and Noble. I think some wandering must be had (and I somehow walked out without buying anything!) 

5.01 PM - home again home again. A little reading in the office before dinner.
Y’all I have my edits back for the M*rder Myster Y’all I have my edits back for the M*rder Mystery (🎉), and I still don’t know where this Neely Spencer chapter is going (you know, the one I said I was going to post last week... or was it the week before?)

Instead of promising x number of chapters this month (and the next month), I’m going to promise that I’ll post the chapters as soon as I’m finished writing them. This means, there could be 4 chapters, or there could be 1 chapter (I’m shooting for the 4 ...) The M*rder Mystery has to be my main priority right now, but I’m hoping that I’ll have time for the whimsy (Neely Spencer is the whimsy). Because we call need a little more whimsy in our lives, right? 

Sorry to disappoint anyone — I’m writing as fast as I can. Thank you so much for sticking with me! You guys are the best! And if you haven’t started reading Atlas of Neely Spencer, now is the perfect time to get caught up!
