Reading for Me

The Books I Have Read…..Just for Me

A Week in Midland (April 14, 2025)

on April 14, 2025

Opera Week 2025 has come to an end. It was a successful production, but I am very glad that it is now in the rear view mirror. With such a busy schedule, I was happy to actually do a little reading each day. My brain and body were generally too tired between performances to focus for very long though. I made progress, but nothing substantial.

What I Finished This Week

Not a thing. I hate it, but it was how the week went. I’m trying not to get discouraged that I am falling behind my schedule a bit. Instead, I’m looking forward to having some free time coming up this weekend to hopefully make some headway and get back onto my reading schedule.

What I Am Currently Reading

And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie (p. 131 of 247). I learned something else about myself this week. Mysteries require my full attention and energy level to make a dent. This one doesn’t really feel like a mystery. I am just watching character’s mysteriously die off and I’m wondering who will be the next victim instead of who is the killer. I really need to plow through this book this week or I’m afraid I’m going to get lost in the weeds on this one.

Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan (1:12 of 13:53). Since I was traveling with others in my car this week, I didn’t try to listen to my book until returning home. I’m only 6 chapters in, but the new premises are much more entertaining than what I thought I was in for in chapter 1. I’m actually looking forward to continuing this read a bit more this week.

That’s all there is to tell this week. Easter weekend is coming up and I am hoping that I will get some reading done while I’m away enjoying a little R&R.
