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.
Hope you are all keeping your head about water in these strange times. I didn’t do much, some good reading, some quilting, a day at the horse races and a five year old birthday party. All very pleasant!
What I read last week:
All library books and all enjoyed. I have a wealth of library books I have on reserve coming in, so I’ve dropped everything else to concentrate on them! So every book mentioned in this post is a library book! Well except for the audiobooks.
What I am reading now:
And still listening to The Jane Austen Society and The Switch.

Sounds like you had a lovely week. Birthday parties are something we haven;t seen here in quite a while now … and probably won’t for a long time!
Looks like a good reading week, too. I have heard great things from lots of people about 28 Summers.
Enjoy your books this week & thanks for hosting the linkup!

Yeah 28 Summers turned out to be good reading even though I didn’t quite agree with the actions of the characters, but I think its a book where the author allows you to make your own call on it all. She just presents it for us to think about.

I don’t borrow many print books from the library but I get audiobooks via the Libby app and Hoopla which are both linked to the library.
Your week sounded so nice. Stay well and enjoy your reading this week!

We don’t have Libby and Hoopla, but I do love these quite new books from the library. It’s good when I can reserve them and be among the first to read them from the library.

It’s definitely a new experience for everyone. I am glad you were able to do a few things you enjoy. I’ve always wanted to try my hand at making a quilt. ❤

We are lucky. Our library was delivering, although that may have stopped again now that we have gone to next level lockdown.
Something to talk about was so good. Enjoy!

Oh, it feels like so long since I’ve been to the library. All our meetings have been cancelled, but they are offering curbside pickup. I have enough reading material here, so I haven’t been.
Great books this week. Love all these covers.

Our libraries opened to curbside pick up. I had 15 come over 2 days. So needless to say, I’ll be reading library books. Just started 28 Summers on audio. Enjoy yours!

I’ve been wanting to read Queen Bee, and I have a copy of 28 Summers that I hope to get to once I finish this final August ARC.
Enjoy your week, and I congratulate you on all the library books.

I am reading Queen Bee carefully, knowing it was her last. 28 Summers was different. I enjoyed it even though I wasn’t quite sure of the set up!!
