What Am I Reading?

This is the meme hosted by Sheila at Book Journey.  I look at what I've read, what I'm reading, and how I'm doing on any challenges.  This week I haven't finished much, but I made up for that by starting a whole bunch of books. Here's my report on the few books finished and the seventeen books I have bookmarks in.

This week I finished:

• The Blessings of a B Minus, Wendy Mogel
• Darth Paper Strikes Back, Tom Angleberger (Cybils)
• Stories I Only Tell My Friends, Rob Lowe

I've also read some of the Cybils picture books, but this year I'm not keeping track of my picture book count.


I'm currently reading:

• A Lady Awakened, Cecelia Grant.  Wow, they still barely like each other.  
• The Man Who Would Be King, Ben McIntyre.  From my TBR list.  Also, it's overdue.
• With a Single Spell, Lawrence Watt-Evans.  Another TBR listie.
• This is a Book by Dimitri Martin, Dimitri Martin.
• Among Others, Jo Walton.  Rereading so I can decide which library to donate it to.
• Twilight and Philosophy.  So I could properly appreciate the movie.
• White Night, Jim Butcher. Audio book for car.  I can't decide if I've read this before or not -- some of it sounds familiar.  I'll wait till I'm done to look it up.  Also, it's overdue.
• Enchanted Glass, Diana Wynne Jones.  Audio book for when the kids are in the car.
• London Eye Mystery, Siobhan Dowd.  Actually my kid stole this, so I'll finish it when he returns it.
• Bindi Babes, Narinder Dhami.  Reading my library.  Slowly.
• The First Men In the Moon, H.G. Wells.  Heh, heh, they just name-checked Jules Verne.
• Twenty Palaces, Harry Connolly. On my NOOK.  When his publisher didn't pick up the Ray Lily books (BOO), he self-published the extra one.  I like this author.
• The Red House, Edith Nesbit.  On my NOOK.  Free book recommended on tor.com.
• Traveling Mercies, Anne Lamott. I'm out of her youth so no more drugs. Yay!
• The Terrorists of Irustan, Louise Marley.  They got caught.
• The Secret Duke, Jo Beverly. She still hasn't figured out his true identity.
• The End of Racism, Dinesh D'Souza.  Always describe a trend by it's fringier crazy elements.

What will I read next? Mostly more library books coming due.  The only new books entering the house will be for book clubs and Cybils finalists.  After I conquer the library mountain, I'll start on my unread book piles.

Challenges I've signed up for (for which I've signed up?):

1. Cybils: 10/80.  Or I should say 10/73, since the 7 Apps aren't possible.
2. What's In a Name?: 1/6.  Maybe 2/6, but I have high hopes for a better match.
3. Where Am I Reading?:  2/50. California, for two.
4. TBR Double Dare.  1.
5. Comment Challenge.  On target.
