What I'm Reading Wednesday - The Martian, Wicked Lovely, Hashimoto's, and Days of Blood and Starlight

The Martian by Andy Weir


Almost done with this one. Not my typical book but I like it. The character's unique voice is still making me laugh. 

Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr


I just started this one today. Yesterday I went to see Cinderella in theaters, and had a sudden craving to finally read Cinder by Marissa Meyer. However, it turned out that I had actually picked up Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr, not Cinder. So I'm reading this one instead :). 

Lifestyle Interventions for Finding and Treating the Root Cause by Izabella Wentz


I've got to finish this before it's due back at the library! Aghhhh!

Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor


Kind of on a break from this one since I'm not doing much driving this week. Next week I'll pick it up again!

What I'm Reading Wednesday - Afterworlds, The Martian, Hashimoto's, Rich Food Poor Food, and Days of Blood and Starlight

Afterworlds by Scott Westerfeld


I've been a huge Scott Westerfeld fan ever since the Uglies series, and I'm so excited to be reading one of his newer books. I'm finding it hard not to turn *just one more page* when it's time to go to sleep at night. 

The Martian by Andy Weir

Still working on this one. 

Lifestyle Interventions for Finding and Treating the Root Cause by Isabella Wentz


I pick this one up when I need to fall asleep ;). But really, it has a lot of good information. 

Rich Food Poor Food by Jayson and Mira Calton


This one has been on the back burner this week. 

Day of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor (audio)


 Still working my way through this one. Twenty minutes each day!

What I'm Reading Wednesday - The Martian, Red Queen, Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Rich Food Poor Food, Mindset, and Days of Blood and Starlight

Somehow, I'm currently reading six books.

The Martian by Andy Weir


I'll admit, I was wondering how the author was going to keep this interesting since there was only one character, but so far he's been successful. I'm also really loving all the science and engineering in this book.

Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard


Finally! I've been waiting to read this since I read the query on the agent's blog as well as the first few pages. 

Hashimoto's Thyroiditis: Lifestyle Interventions for Finding and Treating the Root Cause by Isabella Wentz


I'm actually reading this as a paperback book! It was the only copy the library had. 

Rich Food Poor Food by Jayson and Mira Calton


I'll admit, this one has fallen a bit to the side, especially since I have a deadline to turn in the Hashimoto's book. 

Mindset by Carol Dweck


I've gotten back into this one! I'm looking for some ways to teach my students about growth mindsets vs fixed mindsets and help them develop their own growth mindsets. 

Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor (audio)


So different from the first book yet I still have to know what comes next.
