Jenn's week:  


This week was a slow week for me with reading, however, I did get some binge watching done. I needed to get caught up on some shows and so I binged... which took away time for reading. I did get caught up with Gray's Anatomy, Station 19, and Roseanne. So a good week for television bad week for reading. I did manage to finish a couple of books and start more than a couple. I am reading a few classics, those do take me a bit longer to get through. I try to fit some in when I can. I have a hard time finding classics I like so it is a mountain climb for me for sure.

Books Started:

The Lovely and the Lost (The Dispossessed, #2)Blonde OpsThe Swiss Family Robinson

Books finished:



Audio finished: 

Ace of Shades (The Shadow Game #1)Reawakened (Reawakened, #1)Written in Red (The Others, #1)

Ash's week


This week wasn't anything special. We didn't really have anything going on at all. So... Yeah...

Buuuut. Coming up this Saturday is... DEWEYS 24 HOUR READATHON!!!!

So get ready for that! Hopefully going to finish lots of books, but we'll see. So be prepared for a couple posts coming up for that, and lots of posts on the day of the readathon. Going to try to post every three hours or so that day. 

For my reading/watching buddy thing, I did finish The Frozen Dead, and I hated it. I watched the Host and loved it. And I'm still reading A Madness so Discreet. I'm having a bit of a hard time getting into it.

What it's about:

  3. Nice weeks for both of you. Some good shows and movies and books too. I split my time between viewing and reading. It was fun to have no pressure this week.

  4. Jenn - I still love Grey's after all these years, and now I am just waiting to see how they are getting rid of the latest castoffs. And seriously, I need the neighbor boy and the chief's daughter to get together on Station 19. It's stressing me out. XD

    Ash - I was a fan of the Host (film) as well. I never read the book, because of the things I heard about Meyer's writing though.

  5. I'm having too many good TV nights and not enough reading nights! Tonight I really want to put a dent in The Extinction Trials!
