New Releases and Audiobooks

It has been a moderately busy week with a lot going on, but I was able to get at least one audiobook done.  I am excited that I was able to do that. 

I listened to another Cara Bastone book, and I do like how she is mixing in a lot of the romance with some sci-fi elements to the books as well.

I listened to Better Luck Next Time, and this is what I thought about it

Better Luck Next Time by Cara Bastone

This book is super cute. It is about Duncan and Mona, who are childhood friends, going to the family cottage where their families always meet up for special occasions.It is New Year's and Mona picked up Duncan to carpool together. While on the way there, they go through some northern lights and end up in an alternative reality where they discuss what they were never able to tell each other before. It is the start of a new adventure!

It was a good read, and I am happy that I took the time to listen to it.

I picked up Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid as well, and so far, it is a pretty good book.  I am excited to continue reading it. 

I have been so busy the last few weeks that I am excited to announce that this week I have decided to slow down some and I have nothing booked other than to spend some time reading and just relaxing to avoid burning out.

I am just excited that I can do all these things without having to go out and do anything.

It is so weird to say those things meanwhile I am thinking of my theory that all the people who are in control of our society like the government and those who make the applications which are so mind numbingly addictive that what we are supposed to do, is to come home after work, self-isolate ourselves while we watch a screen being jealous of those who are living their lives while we are being ‘programed’ not to live ours, just to sit on the couch and to do nothing.  We also spend all our money on things that don’t matter and on things we don’t need.  After all, they are all just things.  So, to say that I am just going to stay at home all week does feel a little backwards when I should be getting out of the house and doing something else.  I should be doing things that matter, but when you are constantly doing things, it does take a lot out of you, so it is nice to just sit and relax for a bit!

Anyways, happy reading everyone and have a wonderful week!
