Currently

It's time for another Currently post, hosted by Katy Upperman! Here's what I'm currently...
 
 
Loving
The little spruce I gave my blog! I like keeping my layouts simple and don’t update them much, but I decided it was time for a change.
 
Reading
I recently finished SALT TO THE SEA by Ruta Sepetys and am in the middle of my Darkest Minds series reread (I’ve been itching to reread the first 2 books and finally read the 3rd in the trilogy). I might shift over to THE WEIGHT OF FEATHERS by Anna-Marie McLemore because Katy Upperman has been raving about it! I borrowed it from the library and it’s burning a hole through my shelf!
 
Watching
My family FINALLY took the plunge out of the Stone Age and signed up for Netflix. Why, you ask? FULLER HOUSE! I spent the weekend with my friends and we binge-watched it at their house, but my mom wanted to see it too. So that was the final push to get Netflix. Fuller House was everything I wanted it to be: funny, heartfelt, and full of memories. Every character is fantastic (especially the main 3 women), and Stephanie has become my favorite. She was never my favorite of the Full House characters, but I love how she’s stepped into the Uncle Jesse role.
 
Listening To
Nothing lately. But last week when I was sick I watched every Gilmore Girls panel/interview I could find on YouTube. So pumped for the Netflix revival!
 
Thinking About
Going out to lunch with my dad today. I have been craving a turkey melt that I had at a co-worker’s going away lunch a few weeks ago, so I convinced my dad to come along. The sandwich has turkey, apple slices and chipotle mayo on it – the combo just works!
 
Anticipating


March book releases! A few of my most anticipated books of 2016 are coming out this month, namely LADY MIDNIGHT by Cassandra Clare and THE WINNER’S KISS by Marie Rutkoski. I also read the first 3 chapters of EXIT, PURSUED BY A BEAR by E.K. Johnston and got hooked, so I can’t wait for it to come out in a few weeks!
 
Wishing
There were more hours in a day to read all the books on my TBR! I did some spring cleaning on my GoodReads shelves and deleted some old books I’m never going to read…but I’m already filling it back up with new ones.
 
Making Me Happy
The fact that I’m no longer sick! Last Monday a stomach bug knocked me down for the count (a word of advice: when your friend says she has food poisoning and not a contagious stomach virus, DON’T go visit her!). I missed three days of work, but I’m completely recovered now! Being able to eat real food again is the best!
 
Your turn! What are you currently loving?

  1. I can't wait for The Winner's Kiss too. I love the title Exit, Pursued by a Bear too, I'll have to look out for it.
    Glad you're completely better and able to enjoy your turkey sandwiches :)

  2. THE WINNER'S KISS -- I am ~dying~ for that book. I finished listening to THE WINNER'S CRIME this morning and now my heart hurts.

    Your blog is looking lovely, Kaitlin. The header is adorable, and I love all of the pink. Hope you have an awesome week!
