It’s time for Musing Mondays, a meme from The Purple Booker!

Please note that Musing Monday has moved from Books and a Beat.

Musing Mondays is a weekly meme that asks you to choose one of the following prompts to answer and then supplies a random question:

• I’m currently reading…
• Up next I think I’ll read…
• I bought the following book(s) in the past week…
• I’m super excited to tell you about (book/author/bookish-news)…
• I’m really upset by (book/author/bookish-news)…
• I can’t wait to get a copy of…
• I wish I could read ___, but…
• I blogged about ____ this past week…

I’m currently reading…Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton

I know, I know! It was such a huge hit last year so why on earth have I not read it yet! The simple answer is I don’t know. But I am rectifying it right now. I will hopefully have a review for you all soon.

We’re going to be a week behind each musing Monday as we sadly can’t post on the day anymore but we’re loving the random questions and we will try and get round everyone’s posts when we can!

LAST WEEK’S RANDOM QUESTION: How do you make time for reading when you are very busy? Or how do you find a better balance between wanting to spend time reading and other commitments?

Oow good question. For me right now, I’m really struggling to fit everything in. I’m currently working full time (and with deadlines this usually means long hours as well), studying for my AAT’s so I can be a fully qualified Accountant and I’m pregnant… so yes life is a little hectic at the moment.

Being pregnant means I have to rest more so I don’t over tax my body and I’ve started to take breaks with a book as I find that the most relaxing way to turn my brain off of studying and work but I have this tendency to doze off. I’m just constantly exhausted but sometimes I get stuck into my book, especially now I’m reading for fun and can choose books I know I will enjoy. it could get more interesting when baby arrives though… I will have even less time for reading then.
