Mid-October Updates

Mid-October and I'm barely twenty pages into The Mysteries of Udolpho. I blame Supernatural and not without reason...I've been watching somewhere between three and six episodes a day playing catch up. I was doing so well with my reading and then I got myself hooked on this dang show. I'm in season seven so there's not too much more before I'll be able to watch season ten which is airing now. And then I'll get back to reading more. I can't help it, though. Supernatural is well-written and it's almost eclipsed Doctor Who in my list of favorite shows. (Sorry, Doctor!) It's weird to think that I love an American television show that much, but I digress.

I haven't blogged as much because I haven't been reading much, obviously. So we shall see what happens with the rest of the month. Even though I planned on reading Udolpho for RIP IX, I will definitely read it and aim to finish by the end of the year, along with all the other books on my reading list. Otherwise, I'm reading Splendors and Glooms by Laura Amy Schlitz, which also perfectly fits the spooky Halloween feel.

So even though the book I chose for RIP IX isn't receiving the attention it ought to, I've been watching Supernatural and reading another spooky book, so I guess I'm still working with the theme and feel of the month. Oh, and cooking with lots and lots of pumpkins and apples. :D
