The number of times I've had to do that - mostly because it's taking me too long to read this otherwise amazing book. I just had to do that yesterday and I think that helped. :-)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing Nathan Pyle's works. Off to follow his Instagram account.

It's frustrating sometimes, when I really want to delve into a book, but I'm really not enjoying it and I know it's really not the book. That's how some of my TBR pile has formed. ;-)Suzanne Yesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340451897624838384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-4550905264387326562020-01-19T11:42:51.112-05:002020-01-19T11:42:51.112-05:00I know exactly what you mean.

I feel impatient with the new books...Why aren't they more like the book I just finished? It's tricky.<br /><br />I have put on hold from my library everything you mentioned today (though I wasn't actually able to request Book Woman as all nine copies are checked out). Isn't that crazy? I set my requests to activate when I return from Paris in a few weeks. I am eager to read the graphic novels especially.<br /><br />Have a wonderful week!Deb Nance at Readerbuzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12128529491888701996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-63038050870463434332020-01-19T11:27:40.768-05:002020-01-19T11:27:40.768-05:00Sometimes I realize that a book I'm reading is...<br />Sometimes I realize that a book I'm reading isn't the right book for the time I'm reading. Example: I started reading Becoming by Michelle Obama, but realized now wasn't the right time...and it might not be for a long time, but especially now. So instead I slowly read Meditations by Marcus Aurelius and now I'm going to take a break and read a murder mystery before delving back into some serious reading tomorrow on the Civil Rights era, in honor of MLK Day.Bryan G.
