On My Nightstand January 3, 2026

Happy New Year! Despite all indications from the world around me I am beginning this year with optimism. Fingers crossed, you know?

Anyway, operation break the reading slump is going well. Let’s just hope this keeps up next week when we get back to our normal schedule.

Happy reading everyone!

On My Nightstand This Week

Kindle - I’m working on The Catch by Yrsa Daley-Ward. So far the Tournament of Books 2026 list has been a good one. Hope this one keeps up.

Audiobook - I’m doing a challenge to read about the presidents in order this year starting with George Washington. So I got Travels With George by Nathaniel Philbrick from the library.

Physical Book - I went back to A Chesapeake Requiem by Earl Swift after letting it fall by the wayside last summer. It’s a good book. Life just got away from me.
