My goal books for March were:
- Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi (Fiction/Book Club)
- The Adventure Gap by James Mills (Non-Fiction/Book Club)
- The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman (Mystery)
- Friends & Strangers by J. Courtney Sullivan (Fiction)
I didn't get to The Adventure Gap, as it is actually a book club pick for the first week of April, so hopefully I will read it this weekend!
In March, my reading felt a bit haphazard. I had been trying to focus on one book at a time to see if that helped me focus, or get more into a given book at a given time. I always think that I read multiple books at a time because I never know what mood I'll be in when I feel like reading - I might want a fiction book, I might want a mystery...but this month I realized that it's not so much about mood as about convenience. I focused on one book, but then found myself running out the door and couldn't find that book so I just grabbed another, or I decided to read in the bath, but didn't want to go downstairs to grab a book and just took the one on the bedside table. And, so I found myself in the middle of about 10 different books before I knew it! Some happy medium must be discovered!
The books I finished in March were:
- Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi (Fiction/Book Club/My Shelves)

I have so many books from the library piled up on my entry table, I need to stop the requests from coming in and spend time catching up! Happy Reading!
