Its Monday! What are you Reading? (18th February)

18 Feb

0Its Monday! What are you Reading? is a weekly bookish meme held on Book Journey by Sheila. It’s a great place to discuss your week in reading and see what others are reading too.

I have a week off this week and im shortly going away to Wales for a few days!

Books Read

I read two books in the last week. The first was The Borrowers Avenged by Mary Norton. This is the final book in the borrowers series and i have to say i really enjoyed this book. A very good end to the series.

The second book i read was In The Company of Ghosts by Stephen A Hunt. I have to say i really really really didnt enjoy this book at all, i really struggled to get into it and really didnt understand it at all.

Reading Now

I’m currently reading Life of Pi by Yann Martel. I havent read this before but i really dont like reading a book when the movie is out and all the hype around it, but its next on my shelf to read so thats what ive picked up. I’m only a couple of chapters in but so far i’m really enjoying it.

Next Up

I’m not too sure what I’m going to read next as I’m going on holiday but if i stick to my reading plan it will be What is it About Yorkies by Dr Harry Jay.

Synopsis – Dog Training Yorkies – What Is It About Yorkies is about how to potty train a yorkie and training your yorkie puppy. The dog training methods are not different than others but there are some unique dog training tips regarding Yorkies you need to know. So this book offers you the complete Yorkie information. For those of you that follow my writing, my subject matter is usually of a more serious nature. Every once in a while I like to write about a subject that isn’t so serious and my dog is one such subject. But I must add, I usually end of writing about some behavioral science traits that are applicable to the subject matter (I can’t help it; it’s a living.). My dog is a Yorkie and his name is Gage. He weighs all of about 7-pounds and he thinks he is a guard dog. For his size, he literally is not afraid of anything (I live in Southern Utah and watched Gage charge a full grown 14-point stag deer that had to weight about 800 lbs.). He makes me laugh (and cry sometimes) and he has more idiosyncrasies than a manic person or as I like to say, “He has issues!”…

I have a little yorkie cross with issues so i think that this will be a good read for me!

    I hope you end up enjoying Life of Pi, I did 🙂 I haven’t seen the movie yet but I suppose I’ll get around to it one day. Have a great week!

    Would you recommend The Borrows series? The books look fairly interesting but I’d love your opinion on them.

    Life of Pi was very good. I mean, I enjoyed it. I’m definitely with you about trying to avoid books when there’s so much hype surrounding them. Have a great reading week!
