What to read next?

-
I was originally going to tile this post "The Spring Slump", but then I realized I am not in a book slump, I just have too many great books I want to read at this exact moment. A tough problem to have, right?

I just had a whole books I really want to read come in at the library, on top of a busy life so obviously I don't have time to read them all.

The contenders are:
Governess Gone Rogue (Dear Lady Truelove, #3) Brownies and Broomsticks (A Magical Bakery Mystery, #1) Abandoned (Donovan Trilogy #2) A Week to Be Wicked (Spindle Cove, #2)

These are not all my books checked out of course, but the ones I am most excited to read.
I've been trying to figure out if maybe setting a list for myself and reading the books in that order would be a good thing. I have SO MANY BOOKS in my house (and half of them are library books!) that I get overwhelmed at all the things I want to read constantly.

What do you guys do when this situation hits? Does this happen to you?

Share your thoughts, friends. Help me out here.

    A Week to be Wicked!! Governess Gone Rogue is also super good.
    As far as too many books, I don't know WHAT you're talking about... *tries to hide over 500 unread books under a sheet*

  Pandamonia by Chris Owen and Chris Nixon Summary:  When visiting the zoo, whatever you do, DON’T WAKE THE PANDA! Join in the fantastic fun as one grumpy panda sets off a frenzy of wild partying. Review: WhaleSnark here!  What caused me to pick this book up in the first place was the colors on the cover. You just cannot go wrong with greens, yellows, and blues for catching a reader's eye! This is a picture book, but it has some absolutely intense and hilarious rhyming and tongue-twisters in it! Here's a sample:  "The chimps chit-chatter. The ducks start quacking. The jabirus jabber  and yaks start yakking So waking the panda might spark off a riot, and that's why we like to keep things nice and quiet." There are some animals in this book that I had not even heard of before I read it, and I'm REALLY into knowing all about animals!  The art is vibrant and very pleasing to look at. It features wood block prints of animals that are not us

Oh No! A Reading Slump!

Yeah, I'm in a reading slump....but I'm gonna share with you ways I've been trying to get out of it! When you are in a reading slump, it can seem impossible to get out of it. You're too busy at work to really get into a book when you get home, or chores get in the way. In my case, I almost feel as if reading is somehow lazier than anything else because I'm sitting down, not moving and just focused on the book. Why this translates to laziness to me is still not clear, because I also watch a lot of television. I'm trying to change the way I think about reading. Our world is so quickly moving, it can be hard to stop and concentrate on just a book.  That I think, is the root of the problem I am having. Here are some tips I am working to use for myself to become a more involved reader again. Read one book at a time I have several books going at once (don't do this). If you can't concentrate one book, don't fall into the trap of starting another

Book Review: Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid

Heated Rivalry - Rachel Reid I stumbled across this book as I do so many of my books these days, our fellow tank mate Elley told me about it. A m/m hockey romance with an enemies to lovers subplot? Yes please! Literally all I did this morning was read this book and make an enormous pot of soup, which I then ate while continuing to read this book. It was deeeelightful. Him  by Sarina Bowen & Elle Kennedy is always going to be the quintessential hockey boys falling in love novel for me, because it's so damn perfect, but Heated  Rivalry comes in a very close second now. It's book 2 in the Game Changers  series. Book one (aptly called  Game Changer ) seems to be about a hockey player (Scott Hunter - he makes very brief appearances in this book) who falls in love with a barista, but they have to keep it on the DL because of "hockey-is-homophobic' reasons. This one doesn't appeal to me much because it sounds like the MCs are in love right away and the only th
