Bout of Books Update Day 7

Wow! I can't believe this is the last day of Bout of Books. I am nowhere near my reading goal, however I have meet my other goals!  Depending on how things go today, we will see about that reading goal.

I am going to If I Should Die and rename it Paris Undead. Amy Plum's series is about the Revenants, those that died for others and were reanimated and continue to die for others and reanimate. There are good and bad revenants and a love story between a teenage girl and a teenage revenant. This is the third and final book in the series. Thanks to Emily for hosting!

Rainbow of Books Challenge:
Neon Yeti Reads' Rules are as follows:
"So, you start with white on the bottom, then red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo (purple), violet (like a darker purple), and then black! The spine should have at least a majority be the color you are looking for, but just use your best judgement to get the rainbow-like flow."
The books I used were the following:
White: Austenland by Shannon Hale
Red: Rose Under Fire by Elizabeth Wein
Orange: American Colonies by Alan Taylor
Yellow: Illumination Night by Alice Hoffman
Green: The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia
Blue: The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
Indigo: Huntress by Malinda Lo
Violet: The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook by Dinah Bucholz
Black: Looking for Alaska by John Green

These show my eclectic taste in books!

Thanks to Katherine for hosting!

Bout of Books 10 Update Day 2

Currently reading: The Maelstrom, If I Should Die, Angels in the Dark
Pages read: The Maelstrom- 28 pages, If I Should Die- 14 pages, one short story in Angels in the Dark

I did not take half of my allergy/sinus medicine today and paid the price. I had a bad sinus headache and could barely read anything for most of the night. Work was pretty busy and I had my last elementary school visit of the school year, which was a little sad. However I usually see several of those kids during the summer, so it was not as sad as when I last visit with other schools. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better reading day, but I may have to sit in on board meeting, so a little less time to read.

I went on one of my last school visit for this school year today. It is always kind of sad, but hopefully I will see several of the students at the library during the summer, especially during Summer Reading. I almost killed a turtle this morning. I pulled out of my garage and was waiting for the door to finish closing, because I am always paranoid it is going to shoot back up, when I looked up and saw a turtle a few inches away from the tracks where my tire had just been. His head and feet were out, so I just knew I had run over him, but when I checked, he just looked at me and went slowly on his way. I really like turtles, so I was glad he was okay. Reading went okay today too. I did not have much time to read, but I manage to get a few pages in. Hope you all had productive days!
