No change on my end. Still reading:

The Better Part of Valour by Tania Huff, book 2 of Confederation.
Your Money or Your Life : 9 Steps to Transforming Your Relationship With Money and Achieving Financial Independence by Vicki Robin / Joe Dominguez

I just finished up Red Rising and I really enjoyed it but I can't bring myself to dive headlong into a series right now. My current read is A Separate Peace and next on the docket will be the autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt.

I tend to struggle to finish books that I start but this year I wanted to get better about reading so I set a very modest goal of 14 books. I'm already finished with five books since the start of the year!

Congratulation on covering 30% of your goal already!

There is no reason to force yourself to read something you don't want. I can rarely read series back to back now. I switch to something completely different after finishing the book and then get back to next book in the series after that. Keeps me from burning out.

How are you liking A Separate Peace?
