About to start part 2 of #TheEndOfOctober the amount of research Lawrence Wright put into this book is astounding. #PandemicReading #fictionreflectsreality #ReadingDuringAPandemic #medicalthriller #BOTMbooks #BookOfTheMonth #nerdymamabooks #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CDfqo6mAAGK/?igshid=9y4w1ib0tkk4

Chipotle, a medical thriller about a pandemic from #BookOfTheMonth, and my #SailorMoon cup. Reading about a pandemic during a pandemic. Let's see how this goes. Im only a couple chapters into The End of October but Henry Parsons is giving me some Gregory House vibes.

Two things. 1. As said previously stated short story collections are my #readingkryptonite 2. I need to read more Octavia Butler. Thankfully I picked this up from the library before #COVID19 and I finally finished it. Once I dug into it it only took me about 2 days to read. Short story collections can take me MONTHS to read. These stories were truly thought-provoking. I really appreciated the afterword following each story in which Butler described what inspired the story. The collection ends with two essays on writing. I would recommend this collection to people who love sci-fi and want to get a taste of Butler's work. Though none of these stories are what I would refer to as "uplifting" they did leave me feeling satisfied, whereas most short stories leave me wanting more and feeling a bit disappointing. 4.5/5 #BookReview #OctaviaButler #ReadingDuringAPandemic #SciFi #shortstories #blackgirlsread #POCbookstagrammer #nerdymama #nerdybooks #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CDOqrpMAGPj/?igshid=11p3dp42po80f

Last night I was reading Grady Hendrix's The Southern Book Club's Guidd to Vampire Slaying and never knowing that the sweet adorable angel that is my youngest had left GUM on my pillowcase. So this morning when I realized I had gum caked all over my hair I said "Fuck it!" and busted out the clippers again... #quarantinecut #ChildrenAreMonsters #horror #readingduringaPandemic #baldandbeautiful #thankGodIdonthavealumpyhead #nerdybooks #nerdymama #booknerd #blackgirlsread #LatinxReader #POCbookstagrammer #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CBLfvIkgpCX/?igshid=u0hbcqwa0a4

I've been putting off starting this one in my #DresdenReread ... Changes lives up to its name. This book is an emotional rollercoaster and I wasn't sure if I was up for it while #ReadingDuringAPandemic Starting it today because I want to stay on my #rereadschedule to finish by the end of the month. #JimButcher #DresdenFiles #HarryDresden #signedbooks #UrbanFantasy #booknerd #bibliophile #nerdymamabooks #nerdymama #nerdybooks #Bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B_QelQJAz8Z/?igshid=4zzur8o2ja9x

This is what I'm doing when I can but having the kids home also really cuts into my reading time. #coronavirus #ReadingDuringAPandemic #iknewthesebookswouldcomeinhandy #hitthelibrarytoprepare #somanybookssolittletime #nerdymama #nerdyhumor #nerdybooks #Bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B95ExOkAHGF/?igshid=ou6uwg1qbsz9
