Summary
Got into a visual arts mood over the weekend which lately translates into playing Minecraft. Read the majority of Dolores Claiborne, though. Finished it this morning (Tuesday). It was just a pretty low-key weekend for me, which was actually very refreshing.
Goal
Make some progress on any/all of these books. Just progress. I’m not even shooting for finished. I have a couple chapters of A Feast of Crows and a short story to read too, but no ARCs this weekend.
