It’s Monday What Are you Reading , hosted by Sheila, is the perfect way
for me to
begin my week and allows me to
focus on what
needs to be read and to see what I
have or have not
accomplished the previous week.
I also enjoy
discovering new books by
visiting other participants
blogs.
I finished my second read-a-thon, the Bout of Books Read-a-thon and had a great time. I ended up getting quite a bit of reading and listening time in. Now, of course, I have a ton of reviews waiting to be written, so that’s what I plan on working on this week.
I’m doing well with my new fitness plan. I’ve managed to lose 4 pounds in 2 weeks and feel great! I also got a new pedometer – the Fitbit – which I love. Now that the weather has gotten a bit cooler, it’s easier to get in those 10,000 steps I am trying to make sure I walk each day. I think the pup is also enjoying all the extra walking time!

What
about you? What does your reading
week look like this
week? Whatever it is,
happy reading and have a good
week!
Having a dog definitely helps getting out to walk! I am off to walk right now;o)
The Color of Tea was on my Friday Find post.
Keep up the good work with your walking.
Good on you for getting into the walking. I must find my pedometer and get into using it again; it is a good gauge for knowing if you're doing enough!
Wolf hall seems very popular. I'll add it to my list! 🙂
I just finished Big Sky Country too! I can't wait to read your review.
Happy reading!

Yay – congrats on the weight loss and on finishing the Bout-of-Books. I wish I had participated but I love seeing how everyone did.
You have a lot of authors listed that I used to read consistently but have majorly slacked on lately. I'm going to have to do something about that.
I'm itching to get my hands on a copy of A Hundred Flowers 🙂
I hope you're enjoying Wolf Hall as much as I did!
Have a great week of reading 🙂
