It’s Monday…What Are You Reading? (6.3.13)

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.

What a week!!! I participated in ArmchairBEA 2013 and it kept me quite busy. There were great discussion prompts about blogging in general – lots to think about here! There were also genre discussions each day – I loved these! I included the link for my wrap-up post below – this includes all the posts I wrote for the week. Did you participate?

    Usually I'm finished with school at this time of the year and I can participate in Armchair BEA, but this year the school year went longer. Oh well. It will be fun to catch up when I finish.

    Here's my It's Monday!

    You had a really great busy week, with lots of reads. I've heard about the Beth Hoffman book on your list but as of yet not read it yet, I will look forward to your thoughts on it. Enjoy your reading this week.

    You read so many books at a time, I admire that! I think my head would explode, lol.

      It's a relatively new thing – having more than one book going, especially more than one print book. It's easy with the audios due to the different narrators.

    Glad you still found time to read during Armchair BEA week. Looking forward to Beth's book. I think I may be one of the last ones to read it.
