It's Monday! What Are You Reading?

Books Completed Last Week

Last week I finished The Narcissism Epidemic, by Jean M. Twenge and W. Keith Campbell. I'll be putting up a review of it this week. I've read 13 books so far this year, and 100 seems a long way off. For whatever reason, I read a lot fewer books in February. I'll blame it on the short month! I'm hoping to pick the pace back up in March.
 
Books I'm Currently Reading
I'm still reading Oryx and Crake. It's become my bathtub reading, since I own the book. I'm always afraid of dropping library books into the tub! I'm also reading Wounded by School: Recapturing the Joy in Learning and Standing Up to Old School Culture, by Kirsten Olson, Sara Lawrence-Lightfoot, and Parker J. Palmer. And Homeschool Open House, by Nancy Lande. Both of these are quite good so far.

  2. I really enoyed Oryx and Crake, Margaret Atwood is one my favourite authors - I did a feature on her on my fortnightly meme Great Authors.

    I haven't heard of the other books but i will look forward to your review.

    I just became a follower of your blog, I really like it.

  3. Oryx and Crake sounds good! I love that it is your bathtub read... that must be the equivalent of my beach reads.... a little sand and water is ok if I own the book :)
