That sucks, but I'm glad you're on the mend and found some readalongs to get you back into reading again. :) Have fun with it!!Brandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14650612252443297585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7892722103504759154.post-11270536558129470752015-11-03T07:40:51.858-05:002015-11-03T07:40:51.858-05:00M, maybe the reading slump is contagious :) I thi...M, maybe the reading slump is contagious :) I think its just life interfering with our reading - LOL! I'm glad we are reading Emma together, too. It'll be a fun experience. I saw that you were reading DQ - WOW! I've been tempted to read it before, but never got around to it. I think you will love it - from what I hear it truly is a great read. I'm enjoying the first HP book so far - how could I not? I love the series! I think it will definitely put me in the holiday spirit as well. Hope you have a great week!!Nadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14315207186180201488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7892722103504759154.post-21747665518532400092015-11-02T20:43:55.624-05:002015-11-02T20:43:55.624-05:00I've been in SUCH a slump myself!

Glad we're reading Emma together, and Harry would be tempting if I wasn't accompanying Don Quixote in his adventures until January.Bellezzahttp://dolcebellezza.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7892722103504759154.post-51378851665966918552015-11-02T16:20:31.874-05:002015-11-02T16:20:31.874-05:00Lark, thanks!

So, I think I may just get along with Emma :) I'm counting on these books to help me get my reading mojo back - fingers crossed!

I like her, but some people don't. She's a bit self-absorbed and meddling. The movie Clueless is based on Emma so if Cher doesn't bother you, Emma likely won't either. I'd hate for you not to get out if your book slump! Those suck.Carin Siegfriedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13830053042344882930noreply@blogger.com
