October Retrospective

 It seems like, in teaching, there are some points in the year where there is just so much going on that it is hard to even get a breath. Sometimes it creeps up and is more a matter of incidence. October is always bad, though. It really seems to be an intersection of College applications, school dances, 12 week grades, and the Drama One-Act competition. Even so, I've managed to read six books. Some Octobers I don't manage to read any at all, so I'll take six.

I find I am having a hard time approaching my TBR books this round. I have a new recommender again and I just got done saying that I was getting tired of these women's narrative mainstream books to my last recommender. So when my new recommender hands me three books that pretty much sound like exactly that... just having a hard time even opening them. I guess I will get around to it next month.
