Monthly summaries - October, November, December

October:

177. What the Dead Know - Laura Lippman

178. To the Power of Three - Laura Lippman

179. Here Comes the Sun - Nicole Dennis-Benn

180. Watching the English: The Hidden Rules of English Behaviour - Kate Fox

181. Today Will Be Different - Maria Semple

182. The Blue Line - Ingrid Betancourt

183. The Girls in the Garden - Lisa Jewell

184. The Boy is Back - Meg Cabot

185. An Unrestored Woman - Shobha Rao

Here Comes the Sun was a difficult read emotionally but probably worthwhile? I can’t say I enjoyed it, though. The Boy is Back was a delight, but Meg Cabot pretty much always is.

November:

186. Thud! - Terry Pratchett

187. Another Brooklyn - Jacqueline Woodson

188. Making Money - Terry Pratchett

189. Nicotine - Nell Zink

190. The Wangs vs. the World - Jade Chang

191. Britt-Marie Was Here - Fredrik Bachman

192. Snuff - Terry Pratchett

193. The Age of Miracles - Karen Walker Thompson

Nicotine did not compare to Mislaid, though Goodreads ratings would suggest otherwise. I would strongly recommend avoiding it if you’re asexual (or just bothered by the following situation: a character describing himself as asexual when actually he does experience sexual attraction, women basically sexually assaulting him because they don’t believe he’s asexual, and then the character being “cured” when women don’t actually care that his genitals are on the small side). I thoroughly enjoyed The Wangs vs. the World, and I tore through The Age of Miracles. More could have been done with the latter, but it was intriguing and an easy read.

December: 

194. The Mothers - Brit Bennett

195. Swing Time - Zadie Smith

196. Somewhere Out There - Amy Hatvany

197. Talking As Fast As I Can - Lauren Graham

198. You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine - Alexandra Kleeman

199. Unseen Academicals - Terry Pratchett

200. Scrappy Little Nobody - Anna Kendrick

201. Eric - Terry Pratchett

202. Who Will Catch Us As We Fall - Iman Verjee

203. The Expatriates - Janice Y.K. Lee

204. Raising Steam - Terry Pratchett

205. The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents - Terry Pratchett

206. Re Jane - Patricia Park

207. The Last Hero - Terry Pratchett

208. The Shepherd’s Crown - Terry Pratchett

The Mothers, Swing Time, and Re Jane were all good but not amazing. Highly capable authors writing about things that just weren’t hugely interesting to me personally, I think. Re Jane was my favourite of the three. Talking As Fast As I Can was disappointingly shallow - Graham is a very private person and as such probably shouldn’t have bothered with a memoir, least of all when working on several other projects at the same time. You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine was probably December’s standout book (aside from The Shepherd’s Crown) - creepy and incredibly visceral and probably way too smart for me.

Challenge completed: Discworld read/reread

Just finished The Shepherd’s Crown this morning, and oh, my heart. I cried so much. It was beautiful and heartbreaking and a fitting end to the series. 

I hadn’t really mourned Terry Pratchett’s passing - as long as there were still new Discworld books to read, there was still Terry, somehow. Now I’m really feeling his loss.

My Running Diary: Challenging Yourself to Go Farther!

#Running Diary: Challenge Yourself to Go Farther! Use Run Tracker & set multiple goals. Then crush it! #fitness

I started seriously tracking my runs in 2012, and ever since my running has flourished. I use MapMyRun.com to set weekly, monthly, and yearly goals. It’s been key to challenging myself to go farther!

    Diary of a Running Chick: December 12th, 2016

In 2015 I ran a little over 1,500 miles for the year. I was proud, but definitely wanted to run even farther in 2016. To date, I have…

Challenge completed:

Kate Fox’s Watching the English was my 180th book (it took me forever to read, but not because it wasn’t enjoyable - I just had a lot of library books to get through first).

I feel like I ought to feel some sort of sense of accomplishment, but I don’t particularly. Maybe when I also finish the Discworld challenge?

[quinnreadsbooks]

Whoops.

Just realized that I have fallen way behind on the all-of-Discworld challenge, and now I have to read ~four Discworld novels each month in order to complete the challenge this year.

So, uh. Hope you all like Discworld.

3 Things I've Stopped Doing in 2016

3 Things I’ve Stopped Doing in 2016

Product Sample: OrganicGirl provided greens to participate in their Green Beauty Challenge. We’ve been buying OrganicGirl Greens for years so I can truly recommend them. :) I took a different approach this year when it came to setting New Year’s Resolutions. Instead of picking goals and things I would do, I chose to determine things that I was going to stop doing. While I haven’t 100% stopped…
