Hello everyone, I hope this blog post finds you on a good day. I know that as I write this I have a weekend full of reading ahead of me and I am so excited about it. So since I am going to be doing a ton of reading I thought I would share the books I am currently reading and hopefully will finish very soon.
Death Note, Vol. 3: Hard Run by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata
Since this is the third volume in the series I don’t really want to get into to much detail, but I am loving this series. If you read my Haul | Boyfriend Picks My Books you will see that my amazing boyfriend picked this out for me. Safe to say that he picked a winner. This manga takes a look at Japanese culture and walks the line of what is right and what is wrong. I find it very intriguing and I keep finishing these volumes in one sitting.
Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
I have been eyeballing this book for what seems like forever. Every time I went into the store I would pick it up and then put it down. I am never sure why, but in my most recent trip to an independent bookstore I finally picked it up. I am only about 30 pages or so into this book, but I am very much enjoying it. I am happy I finally did pick it up, her writing style is great. I can’t wait to see where this story goes.
As you can see I have some great books, at least in my opinion, to read this weekend.
You’d have to let me know how Americanah is! I’ve always wanted to read Adichie’s books and I feel like it’d be a good book to start on. I’m currently on a Lord of The Rings kick this month so I’m rereading the Hobbit and then the trilogy!

I keep wanting to reread that series as well, but I think I want to read it when I am on a break so I can really dive in. So far I am adoring it. It is shaping up to be a top read of the year at least.

Apologies for jumping in but just want to say that I love the Hobbit and the LOTR series. 😍 Every once in a while I go into the Tolkien mood and re-read the books. I have lost count of the number of times I have watched the films and read the books.
Also, I hope you like Adichie’s works I have read Half of a Yellow Sun and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Can’t wait to read Americanah now.
