Monday Musings...

Feeling exhausted. Lately, anxiety and depression have been overwhelming me even more so than normal. I'm thinking this means that they are nervous I'm making the right steps to overcome them - finally! The therapist prescribed Zoloft, but I'm too scared to take it. So, it just sits in a drawer. Ugh. 

Decluttering journey. I'm about to tackle my books. I was supposed to last week, but I just couldn't handle it. This week I am going to finally start. I already have several piles of books on my desk to go through. My plan is to get rid of the books I've read and will never read again, books I won't ever read, books I was gifted that I would never have chosen, and books that I just don't want on my shelves. Wish me luck!

Books. I finally finished The North Light by Hideo Yokoyama - it took me ages to read it. Mainly because it was so slow-going and I couldn't seem to get enmeshed. And then, I was hooked and could not stop reading. I cried, I laughed, and I loved it. Such a great read! So much food for thought. After Yokoyama I wanted something quick and easy, so I read The Last Ferry Out by Andrea Bartz:

It was definitely a quick and easy read, but way too predictable and could have been edited even more. Oh well, it did the trick, which was cleanse my reading palate for something a bit more hearty. Next up is:

I've just started this book early this morning and already I'm hooked. I'm definitely looking forward to reading more of Kang's works. 

And now, I'm off to cull my books. Wishing you a happy Monday!
