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 a quieter reading week. I was busy sewing and getting quilts ready for my brother to take back with him to two of his grandchildren so reading went on the back burner! We had a nice evening with him and his wife. It’s quite a few months since we all gathered so that was great.
What I read last week:
What I am reading now:
Thought I’d see how I go with it.
And still listening to South of the Buttonwood Tree.
Up next:
This is a small memoir that has been on my shelf too long, written by someone I used to work with.

It sounds like the reading is on the back burner for the very best of reasons! I’ll be curious to see what you think of the Sarah J Maas book. It’s been on my maybe list for years. I hope you are having a wonderful week!

My son is on the spectrum, so I’m always interested in memoirs and such around that. I bet the grandkids love the quilts!

I’m sure your brother’s grandchildren will treasure the quilts you made for them. My grandmother used to make baby blankets before her hands got too arthritic and they are practically family heirlooms. I’m glad you were able to spend time with your family.
Enjoy your week!
