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.
Yeah for the mini-Bloggiesta this past weekend!!! I got a ton done, but because it was only a mini-version of the usual three-day event, I felt it was more relaxing.

What
about you? What does your reading
week look like this
week? Whatever it is,
happy reading and have a good
week!
I hadn't heard of Mrs Lincoln's Dressmaker. I've reserved it from the library.
It was a really good book!
Sounds like you had a great mini bloggiesta, nice to tick off everything from your list! Off to check out some of your reviews.
Have a great week and happy reading 🙂
My list consisted of all that maintenance stuff that I always seem to forget to do on a regular basis, like updating my challenge lists and updating the archive list. It does feel good having everything up-to-date!
I really enjoyed The Search…and I've picked up another Stephanie Plum from the library….Sizzling Sixteen.
Hope you enjoy all of your reads, and thanks for visiting my blog!
I am enjoying The Search so far – it's especially interesting as I have a chocolate lab puppy and I am learning a few things about training her!
Congrats on the successful mini-bloggiesta. I want to read the Pam Jenoff book. Have a great week..
Summer House sounds great! This is my fisrt visit to your blog! I am now following you.

I've started Mrs. Lincoln's dressmaker but its dragging for me…About three or four chapters in. How is it for you?

I love that you incorporate your reviews completed other book related posts into the What You Are Reading linkup. I love audiobooks, it certainly helps on the long commute to work. Good question Beth, I would be interested where you got those widgets as well. Enjoying your blog.
