Monday: Mailbox/What Am I Reading?/Musings

Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia at A Girl and Her Books. She is the host of MM for the month of October.

I received TWO books in my mailbox, thanks to Hachette India/poet:

1) The Casual Vacancy by J. K. Rowling: 

When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock.

Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty facade is a town at war. 

Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils... Pagford is not what it first seems.

And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?

Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling's first novel for adults.

The Meaning of Me: A book of Poetry by Emmett Wheatfall: 

African American Poetry about relationships with family, friends, and life experiences

What distracts you when you really “should be reading”? ;)

Social Media, Blogging and Television distract me....These are not in any particular order. Then job/work also comes in the way of reading!!
