This has been both the fastest and the slowest year -ever! We are half-way through September, which is three-fourths of the way through the year, and I first spotted Halloween decorations over two weeks ago! It’s a good thing I *love* the Fall Season and all the fabulous treats that come along this time of year! Like pumpkins and apples and pretty colored leaves and …weighty tomes! Maybe the only thing to do at this point is to start picking some of the bigger fall books and see if the longer it takes to read one story, the slower time might pass? (I know it sounds unlikely, but it’s the best I can do! Any other suggestions are welcome!) And while I’m waiting for those books to come rolling in, maybe I’ll start with one of the books recently added to The Reading Room!
The Love Affairs of Nathaniel P by Adelle Waldman
The Burgess Boys by Elizabeth Strout
It Happened at the Fair by Deeanne Gist
Enjoy!
