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 all in the USA had a happy 4th July. Always nice to celebrate.
I had a good week, we had cold frosty mornings and lovely sunny cool days for the most part. Gone today though. I know many places in USA have been very hot, couldn’t manage in that kind of heat!

Happy 4th! It has been in the 90s here in Southern California, but we spent the weekend poolside with family, so that was nice! Hope you have a great week!

Our temps haven’t been too terrible (in the high 80s/90s) but the humidity has been crazy. I really love the look of The Nature of Fragile Things. That author has been on my TBR for years! I need to read one of her books. I’d be curious to see what you think of the Lea Wait cozy series. They’re a little different from the usual I think but I really love how an example of an old sampler is shown at the beginning of each chapter. Have a great week!

Katherine sounds like it would be better for me to read the Lea Wait books in paperback to appreciate those samplers. I will check the library. I just heard I have two books in and I don’t remember reserving them and one is quite unfamiliar so will have to look it up to see! Talk about fuzzy book brain.

Your weather sounds lovely! we did get a break from the heat this weekend (along with a lot of rain), but now the a/c is back on. I much prefer fresh air, but when it gets close to 90 F and beyond … forget it! It was still low-humidity today, though, so I enjoyed writing my Monday post out on our shady screened porch this evening.
Looks like a nice variety of book for you last week. Oooh, and a new Graeme Simsion? Looks like it is outside the Rosie world.
Enjoy your books and some sunny days this week!

Loved The Nature of Fragile Things! Our 4th celebration was very low key. We are in one of the really hot places so we just stayed inside most of the day.

We had a fun family celebration on the 4th. A mid-day barbecue on the patio and then everyone scattered to more festivities at the local park. Hubby and I stayed home in the AC and enjoyed a quiet remainder of the day. Perfect.
I passed on the new Dev book for now so will watch for your thoughts. Have a lovely week!

It’s been chilly here so it’s no bad thing we are encouraged to stay at home I guess 🙂
Wishing you a great reading week

I love sunny cool days and frosty mornings too. 🙂 We actually haven’t had too bad a weather where I am, unlike much of the US. We’re blessed at the moment. Just got back from some fireworks and it’s a beautiful cool night.
Be well!!!
