It’s Monday…What Are You Reading? (12.24.12)

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.

It was a busy week with last minute Christmas errands and holiday baking. For the holidays my husband and I travel to Long Island for Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with his family and then we head to Delaware on Christmas day for my family’s holiday gathering. It will be a busy few days, but I am looking forward to all the family time! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!!!

I’m still working on finishing up two reading challenges. In order to complete them, I need to read 7 books – I’m still fairly optimistic that I can get these all read in a week…luckily I can read in the car! I will definitely be taking advantage of all down-time to read.

  • The Christmas Cookie Club by Ann Pearlman (mine)
  • A Grown-Up Kind of Pretty by Joshilyn Jackson (library audio book)
  • Dreams of Joy by Lisa See (mine)

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

    It's a good thing you can read in the car. I can too. If not, I would only mope at all the lost hours of reading while doing nothing but sitting!

    Hope you have a safe and happy Christmas and good luck with your reading challenges. I still have one more reading challenge to complete so I will be feverishly reading over the next few days when I'm not spending time with my family 🙂
