Week 11 - Back in the Saddle

Page Numbers for the Week: 1,500. Total Pages for 2019 so far: 7266. Page Average Per Day: 97. Total Number of Books: 27.

As promised, I'm back on track and making up ground. I started the week eight books behind pace, and I am now only three behind. I've also pulled my daily average page count up 12 pages. So things are turning around.  I also caught up on my back log of reviews which resulted in a new post each day last week. Even though some of this apparent gain is the result of strategy, it still feels good to get my feet under me.

A  Short List:
  1. Dinner For Everyone by Mark Bittman (Gift from Ryan)
  2. A Discovery Of Witches by Deborah Harkness (Tsundoku - bought it in Chattanooga last summer)
  3. His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik (Tsundoku Stack and also got a mention on Book Riot) - Finished 3/17/2019
  4. Throne of Jade by Naomi Novik (Tsundoku Stack and also got a mention on Book Riot) - Finished 3/21/2019
  5. Black Powder War by Naomi Novik (Tsundoku Stack and also got a mention on Book Riot)
  6. Black Enough: Stories of Being Young and Black in America edited by Ibi Zoboi (School Library)
  7. Teaching English by Design by Peter Smagorinsky (Pedagogy book - Playing Catch Up)

I'm sure my gains over the next week will be more moderate. I've started on His Majesty's Dragon and it's absolutely enthralling. I've added the next two books in the series. All three came out of a box donated to me by a coworker. Actually he donated me three boxes and I'm still sorting through it all. Lol. It's a nice problem to have.
