The first of these questions is one of the following:
- I’m currently reading...
Up next I think I’ll read…

I can’t wait to get a copy of…
I wish I could read ___, but…

And the second is a random question each week.
This week's random question is: Do you steer away from heavy emotional books?

I'm currently reading...
I'm actually in the middle of three books at the moment! One of them is required summer reading for school, one of them is a classic novel, and one of them is just a "for fun" read. The required reading is On Writing by Stephen King, the classic novel is The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway, and the "for fun" read is Now I Rise by Kiersten White. My favorite so far is definitely the latter, and I actually may end up DNFing the Hemingway novel. I just can't really get into it at the moment, but maybe someday?
Do you steer away from heavy emotional books?
Not purposefully! I actually really like books that make me feel something! Like the Purple Booker mentioned in her post, if an author succeeds in making me tear up or get misty-eyed, I'm actually more likely to pick up another book of theirs in the future!

I woke up early to see the Eclipse this morning, it was so beautiful! I live near a field, so we had close to a hundred people from our neighborhood watching it together in the field, it was a lot of fun. The rest of my day is free, though, so I'm probably going to try to get some more reading done! Have a great day!
