Hey, book friends!
So, for Friday, and this weekend, my reading plans are to read, and hopefully finish, All the Little Lights by Jamie McGuire. If I finish that, then I will start re-reading Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. If I somehow manage to finish both of those books, then I will probably pick up The Immortalists by Chloe Benjamin.
What do you plan on reading this weekend?

Awesome! I need to read it soon. I heard that if you haven't read the Bill Hodges' Trilogy that it contains spoilers but I don't know.

Thanks. I was even laughing during the preface of that book. I have a feeling it is going to be one of my favorites as well. Right now, I am trying to finish The Cabin at the End of the World by Paul Tremblay.
