Bout of Books 11 -- Day 5

With the Bout of Books 11 read-a-thon going on this week, I've spent almost all my spare time reading. I just have not had much free time during the work week. But, during a three hour flight from Raleigh to Dallas, I was able to read many more pages than earlier in the week.

I resumed reading “Beauty and the Beast” where I had left off on Thursday. This short story by David Weber—one of five in the anthology, Beginnings—tells the story of how Honor Harrington's parents met in medical school. When I finished it, I moved on to the next story, “The Best Laid Plans”. By the time we landed, I had finished that story and started reading the last one in the book, “Obligated Service”.

Hubby picked me up at the airport and brought a library book that I had had on hold for several weeks and which finally became available while I was out of town. It was nice of him to pick it up for me at the library. I was able to read several chapters in Destroyer Angel by Nevada Barr on our way home from the airport.
