I challenged myself to read 20 books earlier this year, and am currently at less than 50% of this goal. So I want to get cracking! There is a relatively short book I want to make good headway with this weekend, plus I recently bought another one that drew me in within its first two pages. So, everyone who would like to make some progress on books, join me this weekend! I‘ll make another post on Sunday evening.

In case you‘re interested, the two books in question:

Galsan Tschinag - The Blue Sky (the shorter one, 178 pages)
Anuk Arudpragasam - A Passage North (317 pages)

Yes, let's do it! I have a Marguerite Duras book I need to make progress on, so I'll be joining with that.

I'm in. I'd like to get Alison Bechdel's The Secret to Superhuman Strength read.

I loved Fun Home, so when I saw this at the library I immediately snatched it up.

I would like to finish something. Anything. Even if it means picking something small off the TBR and focusing on that for Sunday.

Plausible options: Translation state (Anne Leckie) or The Unbalancing (R Lemberg) depending on whether physical or electronic book.

Still working on getting through birthday gifts before they see a birthday (a terrible habit of mine) and read the whole of an Alice in the Country of Diamonds novel. Diamonds seems really weird overall, unfortunately, and I think I'd rather a similar story for Hearts or Clover instead. But! Glad to have it and have read it overall.
