What am I currently reading?
I am currently reading A Black Fox Running (Brian Carter) and Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist (Rachel Cohn & David Levithan), both for The Reading Rush bookathon.
What did I recently finish reading?
In this past week I have finished 4 books:
- The Kiss Quotient (Helen Hoang) – 4* – it was ok
- Sweetpea (C J Skuse) – 5* – it was pretty good
- Making Cocoa for Kingsley Amis (Wendy Cope) – 5* – a good poetry collection
- The Secret Life of Cows (Rosamund Young) – 5* – a fun bunch of cow character observations
They were mostly following the trend of 5* books this month. I am liking a lot of books, but I am not loving them. I am really enjoying the books I am currently reading though, so hopefully that will change!
What do I plan on reading next?
I have two more books I would like to get read for The Reading Rush, which are Daisy Jones and the Six (Taylor Jenkins Reid) and a graphic history book, Albert Einstein (Ned Hartley & Tom Humberstone).
The other books still on my July TBR are: Summer (edited by Melissa Harrison) and The Other Wives Club (Shari Low).
I enjoyed Shari Low’s One Day in December so I hope the one you have is enjoyable too. Summer sounds interesting, especially as it’s edited by Melissa Harrison, who I’m hoping is the same MH who wrote All Among the Barley that I read recently.

Yes, it is! It’s a four-book series, all edited by Melissa Harrison, spanning the seasons. I have already read Winter and it was a great anthology. I have not read All Among the Barley yet, but it is on my TBR!
That graphic history of Albert Einstein looks excellent! And I loved Nick and Norah’s Infinite Play list, I hope you like it. I meant to do Reading Rush but I just didn’t get organized in time. Good luck!

Never heard of The Secret Life of Cows, but since my family owns a dairy farm, maybe I should pick that one up. Daisy Jones is my favorite read of the year so far. Here’s my WWW if interested: https://greatmorrisonmigration.wordpress.com/2019/07/24/www-wednesdays-july-24-2019/
Never heard of A Black Fox Running, but I love that title and cover! Looks like you had a pretty good reading week. Look at all those fives! Hope this week continues your streak of great books. 😉 Happy reading.
Here’s my WWW post.
So far A Black Fox Running is absolutely beautiful! It’s like reading poetry – such gorgeous writing. 5* in my rating system equals 4* in everyone else’s book. I know, I’m weird!
