It is 8:15am on Friday. I slept really well, my husband made some exceptionally good coffee for me today, the kids are awake and watching some TV before we start our day.
We spent yesterday at the beach and the baseball field. Today will probably be park before baseball. I’m hoping to do some reading outside. I always bring a book, but end up watching the kids’ practice like an I’m an obsessed fan. Well, I kind of am, aren’t I?
I finished my audiobook (The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo) yesterday and I’m trying to decide if I should start another or focus all my energy on The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson. I’ve made it to part 2 of the book and I’m hoping I can pick up speed from here. I have the graphic audio recording to try and help move me along, but I’m not sure how I feel about it. A regular audiobook might be better. Or no audio, just read it…cant quite decide on my own mood.
This post is really just a stall tactic- I don’t know why I’m not picking up my nook to continue The Final Empire. I will regret it later if I don’t read at least some before I start my day.
My weekend plans:
- Clean the house…yeah right
- Map out the kids’ fall ball schedules
- Kid 1 has an away game
- Read Fables vol 18
- Make progress in The Final Empire

I loved The Final Empire! It really picks up towards the last 20% or so, so hopefully soon for you!

I am liking it very much, just reading rather slow. The consensus seems to be that it picks up around the 200/250 page mark.

I listened on audiobook and it was the longest experience of my life – but its a great series, definitely worth keeping up with 🙂
