It's Monday! What Are You Reading? (September 03): 09/03/18
First week of school has gone well. Now that they're settling in I'm starting the job search process, after two years. I had a good week of reading, finally getting through some of the back log. As I've volunteered for the CYBILs again, I'm going to try to read through as many of my purchased books this month because the remainder of the year could be dictated by the nominations.

I hope your kids had good, first days of school and a good week. Comment #2: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 19:46:00 Pussreboots Their first week went well. Both like their classes and teachers. Comment #3: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 06:44:18 You have a nice and eclectic collection of books. Enjoy! Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog. Comment #4: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 19:53:00 Pussreboots My reading usually is fairly eclectic unless I'm reading for school or work. Comment #5: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 07:35:22 Have fun with the CYBILs -- hope you get through your reading list before you start the nominations. Comment #6: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 19:53:00 Pussreboots CYBILs hasn't announced this year's judges, so I don't know if I will be picked. I hope I am but I've done it so many years in a row, I would understand if they pass on me. Comment #7: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 09:52:40 Ah, I just recently ordered both The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra on Blu-Ray. I loved both and haven't seen either in so long. Happy reading! Comment #8: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 19:57:00 Pussreboots We have digital versions of both series but it's been a while since we've watched either. Comment #9: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 11:13:51 I tried Night of the Animals but I had a hard time with it too. Strange pacing. Happy Reading this week! Comment #10: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:00:00 Pussreboots I think I would have found it easier in print. Comment #11: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 12:54:55 I remember liking the first book of the Magical Animal Adoption Agency series. Kallie George writes really well for the beginning chapter book audience. Comment #12: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:04:00 Pussreboots My niece recommended the series to me. I'm reading them because of her and because they qualify for the Canadian Books Challenge. Comment #13: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 13:07:30 Kathy Martin Have fun with all the Cybils books! Come see my week here. Happy reading! Comment #14: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:05:00 Pussreboots They're still picking volunteers so I have no idea if I'll be invited for my tenth year. I hope I am! Comment #15: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 13:36:06 Creator of Oz sounds really good! I'll definitely have to check that one out. Have a terrific week! Comment #16: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:12:00 Pussreboots I bought my copy through iBooks. Comment #17: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 14:52:20 Good luck with the job search! I love the look of all your books, especially The Penderwicks and Holiday Grind! Comment #18: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:13:00 Pussreboots I'm on the second of the Penderwicks books and they do need to be read in order. Holiday Grind also has a bit of a continuing plot but for the mystery part of it, you could read it out of order. Comment #19: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 15:52:27 You have some interesting books read and coming up. Happy reading! Comment #20: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:16:00 Pussreboots I have eclectic tastes. Comment #21: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 16:45:23 A new Murakami? I must see if I can find this one. A must read for me. Comment #22: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:25:00 Pussreboots There is a new Murakami but this isn't it. This one has his first two novellas in one volume. The newest of his books are The Wind Cave and Killing Commnedatore, both out this year. Comment #23: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 16:49:50 Good to hear start of school went well. You will sure be busy reading Cybil nominations but I am sure its really interesting and rewarding. Comment #24: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:29:00 Pussreboots I still need to hear if I've been invited back to participate in the CYBILs.That won't be until at least the middle of the month. Comment #25: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:09:18 Yay for a good first week! We are about to start ours tomorrow. Preschool, but still.. little guy is going to be wiped out! Good luck on your job search! :) Comment #26: Monday, September 03, 2018 at 20:31:00 Pussreboots Be prepared for illnesses and meltdowns as your preschooler brings home every cold and flu and learns stuff to the point of bursting. But it's all good.
