I've been enjoying reading lately. I'm racing through books and have already
completed my
Goodreads
challenge. The Hubby and I are enjoying watching our favourite shows as well
as trying out new ones. So here's another Reading, Listening, Watching for you
to scour.
Reading
I have finished Dark Matter and have yet to choose my next read. I have a few
books on my list but settling on one is a difficult decision. It only takes
one book to stop me wanting to read so choosing the right one is
important.
For anyone who has wondered what their life might look like at the end of the road not taken.
Blake Crouch, Dark Matter
Dark Matter is a good book. I've read it before but I had forgotten the story,
until I read the first line. The story came flooding back and I was eager to
read it. There are
some stories
that stick in your mind. You may forget snippets but the main storyline you
remember. They're the books you read over and over again. Like The Hobbit.
Society of the Mind. State of Fear. All some of my favourite stories.
In my list to read next is You, a book that inspired the Netflix series. The
Stranger by Harlan Coben - again this is a show I've watched on Netflix and it
made me want to read the book. Then there's books I've read lots of times like
Society of the Mind or State of Fear. It's a tough choice.
Listening
Again while writing I've played a Focus playlist. I have started listening to
a confidence podcast by
Trish Blackwell.
I had a personal revelation recently and I'm hoping listening to this podcast
will help me. I need to build confidence in myself and believe in me. I listen
once per day and the episodes are between 30 minutes and an hour long.
A few days ago I happened to listen to an 80s playlist and it made me smile. I
was born in 1981, I was young during the 80s, but it was my era. I love
hearing Michael Jackson rock out or bop my head to Kylie Minogue jumping on
the Locomotion. I'm transported back to my bedroom when I was girl, bounding
about dancing to my favourite tune with a huge smile on my face. When I didn't
have daily stresses to bring me down. When all I had to think about was which
song was coming next. My plan is to listen to the playlist so I can reconnect
with
that smiley part of me.
Watching
Private Practice is a long series and we're still watching. We watch other
series alongside Private Practice, and we're rewatching
YOU,
the Netflix series. It's dark and compelling and I love the main character,
Joe. We're already on series 2 and while Netflix have confirmed series 3 is
coming in 2021 I wish it was sooner. I love the show so much that the book
made it onto my 'want to read' list.
...rock out or bop my head to Kylie Minogue jumping on the Locomotion
We're considering starting The Good Wife after we're finished with You.
Despite watching The Good Wife before it's an entertaining series. You can
root for characters and follow separate storeis. There are a few new things
we've spotted on Netflix that we may try out, and if we do I'll be sure to let
you know!
For now we're working through our favourite books and watching our favourite
shows, but maybe soon we'll try something new.
