Discoveries

I missed a few books on my nightstand; actually, these books aren't even on my nightstand ... yet.

I remembered that I ordered a couple of books from The Book Depository. Then, I read several blogs yesterday and today that mentioned Mockingjay and a supposedly great series, so of course I had to get to the bottom of it. So today, I realize I have at least four more books to add to the nightstand.

I discovered that my library carries The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. I've busied myself by reading reviews of it and wondering about it. (By the way, I really like the covers of these books.) Hopefully in the next week I'll be able to stop by the library and add this to my already huge pile of books I'm currently reading. But I read one reviewer's account of how she read the book in a day. I haven't read a book like that lately so I'm looking forward to it.

This next book just makes me smile and I really am not sure what it is about. I read a review recently of The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie and I was immediately hooked. First of all, the name alone. I just love it. It's intriguing. Also, the story is about a young girl and a mysterious death. Well, that just did me in. I really enjoy a good mystery and I especially like when kids are the main characters. I ordered this recently so hopefully it will come sometime this week. I may put this one on hold though so I can read The Hunger Games.

I also ordered My Brother, My Sister, and I, which is the sequel to So Far From the Bamboo Grove (I reviewed it here). I'm so excited to read this one, especially since it was just a few days ago that I found out there was a sequel.

So it looks like I now have quite a bit of reading to do. That's good though. Also, the weekend is fast approaching and that means extra time to read! I will also, hopefully, be able to get a couple of reviews up about some books I have read recently.

Keep reading!
