It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week.  It’s a great post to organise yourself. It’s an opportunity to visit and comment, and er… add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye’s Blog   and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. And here we are!

Hi loves !, I hope you’re having a great start to the week, I know it is difficult to start after the weekend, so from here I send the best energies for you all !. Today I bring you the weekly meme “It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?”, which I love since it allows us to keep abreast of our recent and future readings, so without further ado let’s start !!

WHAT I READ LAST WEEK & WHAT I AM READING AT PRESENT

It by Stephen King

Well, I’ve been reading IT all last week and I think I’ll be reading it for the most part of this one too. It’s a good book but it’s so long! Personally as I have told you before, is my first experience with Stephen King and I’ve been struggling a bit with his writing style which although it makes the plot be mysterious and well told, is too descriptive. This man literally spends pages and pages describing situations that aren’t really relevant to the main plot, and that is a little bit annoying. Even so,the main plot is very interesting and I love to discover things in the book that I haven’t seen in the movie, That’s always something pleasant.
I want to make it clear that I don’t think King has a bad writing style, in fact he’s considered the horror king for something, right?. What I feel is that his descriptive style is not entirely for me. I still hope to finish the book in a few days to write my review and tell you more deeply about my thoughts. I’m about 700 pages inside of it, so I’m super proud of myself, I think it would take me even longer to read it, so if all goes well I might finish it and review it this week. *Finger Crossed*

The Dreadful Tale Of Prosper Redding by Alexandra Bracken 

I’ve heard incredible things about this book, I can’t wait to read it, besides I feel it will be a relief after reading a complex book as IT, I feel that a Middle-Grade could work

What are you reading this week?

  2. Ha ha – that’s funny because our 23-year old college son came home this weekend and asked if we have IT here because after seeing the movie, he wants to read it! He’s read a few of our Stephen King books before. We have LOADS of them here – our own, plus we inherited a whole bunch of King books when my dad died – they were his favorites, and I grew up sharing them with my dad 🙂 But, incredibly, we don’t seem to have IT anymore…but we did lend him Needful Things and Cell.
    Enjoy!

  4. I’m reading so much right now. Currently actively reading Hidden Figures and The Ninth Circle (a Netgalley). I’m also doing the Real Time Reading of A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness, and really enjoying that experience! (It’s my 3rd time reading it as a whole). The cover of that middle grade book is stunning!

  5. I seriously commend you on reading not just ANY huge book but THAT huge book! lol, i couldn’t take so much horror but I’m so glad you’re enjoying it’s general plot. I can see how overly descriptive writing can bog down the reading experience. I REALLY would like to read The Dreadful Tale Of Prosper Redding! & I think you chose well Sofii, Middle Grade sounds like the perfect book to read after a horror like IT 🙂
