What
about you? What does your reading
week look like this
week? Whatever it is,
happy reading and have a good

I've never been behind in my reviews before, but I feel like I am now. Oh well. Surely I'll be able to catch up this summer….
Here's my
It's Monday! What Are You Reading? Hope you'll stop by!
I feel like I am always behind…sometimes more so than others.
Life got in the way of reading for me too … I only finished one book lol. Fingers crossed for reading time for both of us. Looking forward to your thoughts on The Good Father. Have a great week 🙂
The Good Father was really good…and there's a giveaway for it, if you're interested!
Life got in the way this week, so I'm still reading a couple from last week…but I'm almost finished with The Good Father. Loving it!
I want to read The Last Boyfriend….
Enjoy!
Here's MY MONDAY MEMES POST
I really enjoyed The Good Father and I am loving The Last Boyfriend so far.
Love Nora Roberts' books but The Next Always was only so-so for me and I'm not sure that I will read the Last Boyfriend.
Hope you enjoy your reads for the week and thanks for stopping by.

I liked The Next Always and so far The Last Boyfriend is pretty good. I will agree that some of her books are better than others!
I've heard such good things about Kristin Hannah, I've got one of her books on my shelf and really need to pick it up soon!
I love her books – they are great. I've read a ton of her books and can't even pick a favorite – they are all that good!
I am curious about The Last Boyfriend. Good?
So far, I am really enjoying it!
I was surprised at how much reading I actually got done as it seemed that I was always busy! I am listening to What Doesn't Kill You and it is very good, the narrator is doing a great job.
I thought I would get more done, but time just got away from me…hopefully this week I'll get a little more done.
I'm glad you are enjoying What Doesn't Kill You – I really liked it.
Life gets in the way sometimes but books are patient enough to wait thankfully.
Hope next week is better!
Yes, books certainly are patient to wait!!!
I have been hearing about this book; sounds like a good read.
What book are you referring to?
I am reading The Cowboy Takes a Bride by Lori Wilde.
I usually read 2-3 books a week.

Sometimes I get that much done, sometimes I get less. I haven't read anything by Lori Wilde yet – but I hear she's a good writer!
I really liked The Good Father – Diane Chamberlain is one of my favourite 'adult' authors. Nice to read a book partly told from a single father's perspective too!
Good luck squeezing in extra reading this week 😀
I've only read a few books by Diane Chamberlain – and now I want to go back and read more! It was nice to see the single father's perspective – my brother was a single father for years, so it's something that's close to my heart.
You had a great reading week, with some great books 🙂 Happy reading!!!
They were all really good books!
Not heard of those books but they do sound pretty interesting. Thanks for stopping by my blog and hope you enjoy your week of reading 🙂
They all have been so far!
I'm going to take a look at your giveaway. The book sounds great. Thanks for visiting my blog.
It was really good!
What a great list of books you've read and are reading! Enjoy!
So far, they've all been really good!
I loved The Last Boyfriend – hope you do too! Thanks for visiting my blog!
I am loving it, too!
You have some great reading! I enjoyed the Weird Sisters and always have fun with Nora Roberts and Kristin Hannah.
The Weird Sisters is good, I just haven't had much time to listen to it lately. I find you can't go wrong with a Nora Roberts or Kristin Hannah book.
Wow, I think you had a very productive reading week! I enjoyed Kristin Hannah's previous novel, Firefly Lane, and I LOVE the Stephanie Plum series!!
Enjoy your books this week –

I enjoyed Firefly Lane, too. I'm just starting the Stephanie Plum series, but I found the first one to be pretty good.
I've never read James Patterson, but I know a lot of people really enjoy his writing. Have you read all of his books?
Almost all of them. There are a few series that I don't read The Maximum Ride series, the Witch and Wizard series, and the Daniel X series. But I do read his other series – Women's Murder Club, Alex Cross, Michael Bennett and Private. I also read most of his stand-alones. I find his books to be quick, suspenseful reads.
I enjoyed The Good Father as well Have a great reading week! Love The Stephanie Plum series – hope you are enjoying them!
Shelleyrae @ Book'd Out
The Stephanie Plum series is good – but I'm just getting started. I've read the first and now have the second to listen to and then only 17 more to be caught up!
Hope you're enjoying your books! 🙂
So far they are all pretty good!
I really like the cover of "Home Front". Sounds like an interesting story too.
Hope you have a great week!
It's really good so far. I'm about halfway through and hope to finish it this week.
I'm curious to see what you think of The Weird Sisters. I started listening to it and quickly abandoned it. Maybe I should have hung in there….
It's a little strange, but I like it. I haven't gotten that far into it, but I plan on forging through.
I'm #44 in line for the Last Boyfriend from Nora. :/ Super ready to read it :)The first one was pretty good!
Did you like it?
Happy reading this week!
What are YOU reading??
It's really good and I loved the first one, too! Hope the line goes quickly and you get the book soon!
I'm not much further into the Stephanie Plum series than you are. I hope you're loving them as much as I am!
I am…I'm debating whether to see the movie now or wait a little while until I am further along in the series. Have you seen it?
I'm always a few books behind in my reviews too. I read faster than I write!
I don't know if it's that I read faster than I write or that I tend to go from one book right to the next and I don't always write the review right away.
You're doing pretty good for LIFE getting in the way!! Fun to see so many books & reviews. Great week! Thx for hoppin' by!
Thanks! I think participating in this meme helps keep me on track and motivated to read and keep the review coming. Plus it's always fun to see what everyone else is reading.
I loved One for the Money! 🙂 Stephanie Plum & Ranger Yum!
Happy reading this week!
What are YOU reading??
One for the Money was great – I just hope the rest of the series is as good!
Kristin Hannah is such a wonderful author, I hope you're loving Home Front!
Have a fabulous reading week and thank you so much for stopping by earlier! :o)
Home Front is an amazing story…very intense and emotional.
I need to find me a copy of What Doesn't Kill Me, it looks really great, and it's a Iris Johansen book! Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
I love Iris Johansen, too, and What Doesn't Kill You was fantastic!!!
