Musing Monday (May 20th)

Musing Monday is a meme by Should Be Reading.


Musing Mondays asks you to muse about one of the following each week…
• Describe one of your reading habits.
• Tell us what book(s) you recently bought for yourself or someone else, and why you chose that/those book(s).
• What book are you currently desperate to get your hands on? Tell us about it! 
• Tell us what you’re reading right now — what you think of it, so far; why you chose it; what you are (or, aren’t) enjoying it.
• Do you have a bookish rant? Something about books or reading (or the industry) that gets your ire up? Share it with us!
• Instead of the above questions, maybe you just want to ramble on about something else pertaining to books — let’s hear it, then!

I'm going to go with the what I am currently reading and why I chosen it. I am currently reading I Am Legend  by Richard Matheson. I choose this book because I was told by my fiancĂ© that I would like it since I'm a horror fan and I enjoyed the Vincent Price move based on the book. I mentioned it in my previous post. I think it's just now starting to get good. At first I wasn't so sure it was going to be good because it's narrated by a man who is all alone and how he's just living and has little desire to survive. It's hard to read the mundane life of someone who isn't doing much. Know that I've gotten a little further it's picking up and I am enjoying it, but just haven't trouble finding the time to read it. 

Why I've Been MIA

Not sure how many followers I still have here, but here's why you haven't heard much from me lately. I was busy trying to finish my last history research class so I could FINALLY graduate. Which in case you were wondering I graduated. With help from a friend at work I got a B in my class. I'm sure if she didn't help me edit my paper (writing is not my thing when it comes to school) I probably would have just barely passed or failed and have to take it again. I went to graduation last week and while I wasn't thrilled with going through the ceremony, it's boring especially when you know no one there, I am glad I went through it.

A good movie
Because of all the time I was putting into that class I had no time for fun reading. I have started a few books and finish very few. I hoped to have a few of the books I had started, but never finished one. That didn't happen I still have 3 I think to finish as well as the book I just started to read, I Am Legend, which I have been told is more like the Vincent Price movie, The Last Man on Earth instead of the Will Smith version I Am Legend. I'm a huge horror fan and Vincent Price fan so I decide to read the book, which I received this Christmas from a holiday book swap on GoodReads!


I hope to also get some actual reading down now that school is finally over and while I'll be busy at work with summer camp, I should had time to read. Well as a mom you try to find as much time to read as possible. I'm still doing the TBR Challenge, but due to no reading I haven't been doing the recaps or anything. I should get on that. I also haven't done any memes or anything to at least keep things going and I'm sorry for that, but it's hard to do things when I have no time for anything. So if you see nothing from me from now until July come yell at me. It means I have gotten lazy or forgotten what I promised I would do.

So hopefully I'll have some reviews up here even if I don't do them on the youtube channel!
