“At the Library” Cedar Park, 2016
こんばんは！
Today Koa and I went to the library to pick up some more books since he blazed through 5 paperbacks of One Piece manga. I also returned a book that I started reading, but was not really into anymore. That book, “Cursor’s Fury” is the third in a series of a fantasy epic. I thought the first two were really good, but for some reason, I just didn’t feel like continuing the series at this time. I’ll probably pick it up again at some point in the future, but for now I felt like I wanted something new.
I was just browsing the fiction section and I came across “Panic in a Suitcase” by Yelena Akhtiorskaya. It sounded interesting… the story of a family of Russian immigrants to the United states. We’ll see!
One thing that has changed about me as I get older is that now I don’t worry about not finishing books. When I was younger I’d feel an obligation to soldier on through a book that I wasn’t even enjoying all the way to the end. I’m not sure exactly why. But now I feel like it’s not such a big deal to not finish a book… who cares anyways? Life’s too short to spend time on things that aren’t fulfilling or enriching. You have to just let things go, right?
Anyways, that’s my thought these days.
I hope you had a nice weekend, and let’s have a great Monday!

Prahka! Me too! I used to keep,going thinking or hoping somethings going to happen or it’s gotta get better! Now it’s like, I’m on to the next thing! Book, movie, etc!
It’s very true about reading the books till the end. To often we feel that we need to finish reading even we are not enjoying. Why? Have no idea… Hope the book you chose now will be good!
Thanks! I’ve read a few pages of the book and it seems fun and interesting… haven’t been in the mood to read much though.
