The Tiger’s Daughter

Sunday Sum Up: December 15, 2019

December 15, 2019December 14, 2019 / Kim @ Traveling in Books / Leave a comment

It's been a long, stressful week. Most of that stress was self-inflicted, but it was stress all the same and it didn't let up until Friday and Saturday. I feel much better now, and am ready to face another week. Obligatory Mina Photo (with a photo of Sidney, for good measure):   They're both still … Continue reading Sunday Sum Up: December 15, 2019

Sunday Sum Up: December 8, 2019

Overall, this was a tiring week. I spent most of my day off sorting and cleaning various art and crafting supplies, as well as rearranging my little studio. And fighting with my old printer, which had been on its last legs for quite some time. In a fortuitous happening, I was able to replace my … Continue reading Sunday Sum Up: December 8, 2019

Sunday Sum Up: December 1, 2019

Thanks to bad weather and other family things going on at the opposite ends of the state, I did not go to my parents' house for Thanksgiving. Nor did I attend Thanksgiving dinner with my sister's family, who went to another part of the state entirely. I had that rarest of things: two days off … Continue reading Sunday Sum Up: December 1, 2019

Is it New Year's Eve yet? I am ready for the slower pace of January, when I feel like I have time to sit down and do things-- like read. That said, I am enjoying all the holiday get-togethers and the cookies and peppermint things that come along with the Christmas season! . . . #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #violinistofvenice #alyssapalombo #tbr #historicalfiction
One of my current reads, The Fellowship of the Ring, is a long time favorite. And by favorite, I mean I could read this another twenty-five times and be perfectly happy. . . . #thefellowshipofthering #fotr #lotr #thelordoftherings #tolkien #tolkienfan #favoriteauthors #favoritebooks #frodolives #amreading #currentreads #bookstagram #bookstagrammer
Back in 2018, I tried to read as much fiction in translation from as many different countries as possible. A friend recommended Carsten Jensen's 'We, The Drowned' to me, so I bought a copy... and never read it. There are several unread tomes on my shelves, and I am going to make an effort to read them in 2020. . . . #wethedrowned #carstenjensen #bigbooks #tomes #tbr #2020tbr #toread #bookstagram #instabook #bookstagrammer #booksintranslation #translatedfiction #readtheworld
I first read Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising books when I was in elementary school, and am now on my third or fourth reread. I love the story and the imagery. It always seems to be a different book whenever I come back to it. . . . #susancooper #thedarkisrising #greenwitch #arthurianlore #books #fantasynovels #yafantasy #favoritebooks #tbr #bookstack #bookstagram
I wanted to start reading Winter's Tale by Mark Helprin last night, but by the time I got home and finished doing all the annoying housekeeping, I was too tired to read anything, and went to bed. Oh well. Maybe tonight. . . . #winterstale #winterreads #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #blue #booklove #tbr #toread
My December TBR. Not as many books as other months, but a lot of pages.
