What about you? What does your reading week look like this week? Whatever it is, happy reading and have a good week!
You've got some good books on the go. Everyone seems to have read Major Pettigrew. Am I missing out on something really good?
Happy reading!
I, too, keep hearing about Major Pettigrew. I think I may have to add him to the TBR list.
Happy reading this week!

I got some more fun reading done last week. Next week will involve a lot of K to 3 books. Come see what I'm reading now.
I've seen Major Pettigrew all over the blog world lately, and each time it looks good. I guess I'll get to it someday! Have fun reading.
I have been seeing The Paris Wife around a lot and it looks like a book I would enjoy. Look forward to a review. Have a great week!
Thanks everyone for stopping by.
Major Pettigrew is excellent…I highly recommend it. I am hoping to have my review up for it this week or early next week at the latest.
The Paris Wife is also really good so far – it's about Ernest Hemmingway's first wife. Review will be up Wednesday (with a giveaway!) and the author is doing a guest post on Thursday.
I'm curious about Cleopatra. I heard about it once long back and saw mainly good reviews. I'll have to check out that book again. Have a great week, Kristin!
@Aths Cleopatra is really interesting but it is slow reading. It was the pick for my book club in January and once I realized I couldn't attend the meeting due to a work commitment, I put the book aside to do some other reading. I really need to get back to it soon so I can finish it!
You are going to have a great reading week!
I can't wait to see what you think of the E. Berg book 🙂
