What about you? What does your reading week look like this week? Whatever it is, happy reading and have a good week!
It's been a long time since I have read any Patterson, but I read your review of Tick Tock and this sounds like I would certainly enjoy it. Have a great week.
Tapestry Of Love is on my TBR and I like all Cleopatra books so hope your book club one is good!
How is Cleopatra: A Life?
Jan: Tick Tock was great – it's the 4th in the Michael Bennett series, but it could stand by itself, I suppose…thanks for stopping by!
Sheila: The Tapestry of Love is so good – my review will be out this week! The Cleopatra book is very interesting!
@Jess So far, it's really good. It's not a fast read, but very interesting.
Wow, you really read a variety of book. Happy reading!
@Kah Woei I love reading thrillers, romance, historical fiction, cozy mysteries, women's fiction, contemporary fiction – those are my favorites. Thanks for stopping by!
The Tudor Secret is on my list to read next month!
I am a new convert to Susan Elizabeth Phillips–I am reading Simply Irresistible and Book 1 of the Sports Series she has 🙂
@Felicia the Geeky Blogger I can't wait to see what you think of The Tudor Secret – I loved it!
SEP's sports series is fun. The one I am reading next comes before her newest one out.
Hope you enjoyed The Tapestry of Love – I've heard people say it's not quite what they'd hoped for, but I'm still interested.
@leeswammes It's not a book about the plot so much as getting to know the character…I loved it! My review will be out this week.
You have accomplished a lot this past week. How many books do you read at one time on average? I find I can handle maybe two at a time, depending on the book. Have a great week and thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for your assistance with preparing a virtual book tour. My first, Sudden Moves, will be up Thursday, February 10. Come on over. shirley-mybookshelf.blogspot.com
@Shirley Shirley – I used to only read one book at a time, but now I find I can do an audio book and another book. Since Cleopatra is non-fiction, and it's a slow book, I am able to read another one at the same time. Thanks for stopping by and I will definitely visit your first tour!
Cleopatra: A Life is on my to read list too. Are you enjoying it?
@Elena I am enjoying Cleopatra – it's just a slow read…I read a little every day. It's very interesting.
I've heard good things about Cleopatra: A Life. Happy reading!
I've been looking forward to The Tudor Secret, hopping over to read your review right now!
Cleopatra is so interesting! I'd love to read more about her. I think I have another book or two around here I haven't even read yet!
I am always amazed with the list of your readings in this meme.
I wish I can write many review as you do
Will come back here to check you review
🙂
Thanks for stopping by
Great reading week. I have to check out the SEP title, I think I read it, but not sure. I just placed a hold for her newest release.
I just won the Cleopatra book and am looking forward to it. I also want to read Tapestry of Love.
Wow! Great reading! I'd love to read Cleopatra! Enjoy!
I am loving The Tapestry of Love.
Enjoy ur reading week

Oh! I've also got Haunting Jasmine in my TBR pile. I'll be interested to hear what you think of it.
Have a fabulous reading week and thanks for stopping by earlier!
I love Jodi Picoult! 🙂 Great reads. New follower, btw! Love the blog!
I've never read anything by Susan Elizabeth Phillips…but have her newest one on hold at the library.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
I'm going to have a pretty busy week. Mostly review books. I'm curious as to what you think of the Susan Elilzabeth Phillips book. I'm kinda hit or miss with her.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. PS – I'm about a third into Savor the Moment by Nora Roberts and I think it is my new favorite!
Happy Reading!

The Tenth Circle wasn't my favorite Jodi Picoult book… I didn't like the main character (Trixie? don't remember) at all.
It was still good, don't get me wrong, but her other books are much better in my opinion.

Definitely a busy week! I look forward to your review of The Tapestry of Love. I really enjoyed that one 🙂

Have another great week & happy reading!
