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 all had a great week. My joy of the week was when my great niece ( Miss 7) sent me a voice message to tell me she was so delighted with herself because she had just read her first book all by herself. She had enjoyed a big book of Billie B. Brown ( by an Australian author). It was so good to hear the excitement in her voice. Makes me want to run out and buy her some more in the series! I don’t remember being able to read the first book by myself, do you? I imagine though its like that first wobble off riding a two wheeler by yourself and I do remember that.
I had a good time in the city yesterday, met up with a friend and we went by bus around the harbour, had lunch by the beach and then came back across the harbour by ferry and then back by bus the last little bit. The weather was perfect and though Autumn is setting in there were lots of people out enjoying it all.
What I read last week:
What I am reading now:
I borrowed this one from the library and as soon as I got it of course it had to go right up front on my reading.

I am listening to…
And my slow and steady is still Fault Lines by Emily Itami.
