It’s been a few weeks since I’ve written a Sunday Evening Post, and I thought I had given it up, but several blogging friends write updates of some sort, and they often end with, “What are you reading?” So, I’ve decided to give it another go, and this is my update, my Sunday (Evening) Post.
What I have recently finished:
Today’s Sunday edition of The Houston Chronicle
The Accidental Life by Terry McDonell, recently reviewed on this blog
What on Earth Am I Here for?, an inspirational study by Rick Warren, which I borrowed from my church library, which will be reviewed on this blog soon
The Light Between the Oceans, by M.L. Stedman, also to be reviewed soon
Bitter in the Mouth by Monique Truong, which I read earlier, then reread in a feeble attempt to write a review which would do it justice, but still have not accomplished
What I started this week:
Stephen King’s sequel to The Shining, Doctor Sleep, which describes the life and “adventures” of a grown up Daniel Torrance, the young son in the novel who had the “shining”
Carry Me Like Water by Saenz, which is on my Kindle, and because of that, may be a challenging read for me
Still reading:
The Lightning Thief , a YA novel by Rick Riordan
Book VII of The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King, which I have been reading for years and can’t bear to be “through”
The Fifth Season, first book of the Broken Earth Trilogy, which my Better Half and I are reading aloud together
What I watched this past week:
A Promise, a love story set in Germany during the war
a heart warming, tear jerker of an episode of “Queer Eye” recommended and sent to me by my grandson
several episodes of a Netflix original series, “Strange Empire”

FYI, The show is called just “Queer Eye.” The original–problematic–version was called “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.” 🙂

I used the problematic version then went back to your message and checked and edited it accordingly. You must have read it immediately after it was posted!

I’ve been thinking about reading Book of Salt by Monique Truong in July during the Paris in July event. If you loved Bitter in the Mouth this much, I think I should give Book of Salt a read.
