It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? a place to meet up and share what you have been, and are about to be reading over the week. It’s a great post to organise yourself. It’s an opportunity to visit and comment and er… add to your groaning TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started on J Kaye’s blog and then was hosted by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn here at The Book Date.
Jen Vincent, Teach Mentor Texts, and Kellee of Unleashing Readers decided to give It’s Monday! a kidlit focus. If you read and review books in children’s literature – picture books, chapter books, middle grade novels, young adult novels or anything in those genres – join them.
Well February is already wending its way across our lives. Hope all those in cold climes are managing to stay warm. I’m trying to stay cool and even went for a swim yesterday at our local beach. Well, only because I was with a friend who swims at every opportunity.
What I read last week:
What I am reading now:
I will be reading In Pieces slowly and am making good progress through it. I usually night read it for awhile most evenings.
I am also continuing to listen to Royal Blood. Truthfully the narrator Katherine Kellgren is so good I’d listen to her read the phone book!
Up next:
What a coincidence! I remember wanting to read Meet Me At the Museum when it was first released, but I forgot about it. Just this week, I heard a book podcaster raving about it…and now here you are reading it! It sounds wonderful – hope you enjoy it!
Enjoy all your books this week – and your lovely weather!

I just listened to Kellgren read another book and agree about the phone book comment. I think I’d listen to just about anything she or Imogen Church read! I saw American Duchess at my library the other day and was wondering about it. I love the topic. Have a great week and stay cool! We’re in a warmer part of the US and right now I’m so grateful! I couldn’t handle those negative temps!

Tons of other stuff to read Patty. I only read a few memoirs. Not a lot.

I always enjoyed Kellgren’s audiobooks. Was sad when I heard she died last year.

I wish I was in the warmth with you! It’s cold and icy here. You read some great books last week. Hope you have a great reading week. You probably will now that you are no longer hesitant to DNF books.
