How did your weekend reading go? If you planned on anything specifically, did you read it?

Weekend reading didn't go at all this weekend. Too tired.

I continued to read a few chapters of The Obelisk Gate every night, heading into the final quarter now.

My plan was to finish something, and to read something cheerful. I achieved both of these!

Cheerful: I read books one and two of the Harriet Hamster series - absolutely recommend, for anyone who likes a bit of thinking and leftist politics in their fairy tale rewrites. Suitable for any age that will sit and read a chapter book, or sit still to have it read to them.

Finish something: I had started 'the Wizardry of Jewish Women' by Gillian Polack early in the week. I had a lot of difficulties getting in to it (personal issues with some of the content - mentioned in all the summaries I've seen, for people who need content warnings going in), but persevered over the weekend, and finished it up. Mostly recommended, but getting hold of a copy will be difficult because the publisher closed up.
