What are you reading this week of May 21, 2017? [View all]

I'm still reading The Stars, My Destination by Alfred Bester. It's quite enjoyable.

Been really busy getting veggies planted IN pots this year since nothing survived last year. Also enjoyed a fun trip to a B&N a couple days ago. Haven't been in one for many years and my sweetie likes to spend time in their cafe, writing. This gave me much time to explore and I discovered their discount table and went a little crazy.

So, what's bringing you enjoyment these days?
