This week I am planning to read/review:
Visit next Monday to see if I managed to accomplish my reading goals.
Wow, you’ve got a lot of reading planned for this week. I’m sure I won’t get as much done this week since it’s Thanksgiving.
I will be lucky to get through my pile.
Look forward to your review on Cleopatra. You always have a great variety and so much.

I am really looking forward to reading Cleopatra.
Jennifer so I remember you saying recently you were going to slow down? LOL – you are still an amazing reader!
I love how you mark which book is your favorite of the week, you know that means I have to read it! Have a super week and an awesome Thanksgiving!
Thanks Sheila. I am slowing down, I just need to get past my hectic schedule first.
Again, you amaze me with the number of books you get through! I had a less than stellar reading week…got hung up on Penhallow by Georgette Heyer. Good book, but it went on and on….
I was waiting to see what you think of Arsenic & Clam Chowder. Gonna hop over and see the review…
I really enjoyed Arsenic & Clam Chowder it drew me right in. I adore Georgette Heye’s novels, but I have not as of yet read Penhallow.
Huge pile of interesting reading. Enjoy!
Thanks!
Another great reading week gone and another planned..
Make sure you check out Fiction Vixen discussion on the Moning books..
Have a good reading week..
E.H>
Thank you. I am hoping for a wonderful week of reading, festivities, and decorating.
Oh! I love Amy Sedaris and I’m definitely slowly falling into the “poor people” category. LOL I could definitely use a few extra crafty ideas, I’ll have to check that one out!
You’ve had another great week! Have a fabulous reading week coming up, a Happy Thanksgiving (if it applies ;o) ) and if you have a second take a look at what I’ve been reading at There’s A Book.
Seadris’ book was great fun! Thank you for the Thanksgiving wishes, it will be a family centered weekend, so my reading was overly ambitious for this week.
Sounds like you have a fun week coming up! Happy reading!
Thank you! I am afraid I shall not get through them all this week.
Wow, you have a lot of books planned for one week! I’d like to read the Emperor’s Tomb. I’m off to read some of your reviews now, I’m sure I’ll find books I want! Happy reading!
Thanks! It is an very aggressive week of reading and I am doubtful I will be able to get everything in due to family needs.
You did extremely well!
Here is my Monday post!
Thank you, it was a busy week.
Congrats on the fabulous week! Your upcoming choices look intriguing, especially Dear Mrs. Kennedy and Cleopatra.
Thanks for visiting my blog, and enjoy your week. Happy holidays.
I am truly looking forward to both books. This week is so busy I hope to find time.
I love reading your lists, I always get some new items for my TBR pile
Hope you have a great week, I don’t know how much I’ll get done due to the holiday…

I do not know how much I will get though with the holiday either, but I am guessing far less than I planned.
I loved Heidegger’s Glasses! So good. I can’t wait to see your review of The Wolves of Andover should you get to it — I’ve been v intrigued by it.
I have been reading The Wolves of Andover and should get the review up this week.
I really enjoyed, The City of Tranquil Light by Bo Caldwell, but I have a lot of friends on the mission field at the moment.
Cleopatra looks really good!
I am anticipating enjoying The City of Tranquil Light and Cleopatra.
Wow, what a lot of interesting books you’ve got listed there! I’ve been hearing so much about the Amy Sedaris book – it’s really got my attention. I’ll have to give it a look.
Thanks! Amy’s book is a riot.
I’m really starting to think I should add Heidegger’s Glasses to my to-read list. Glad to see you enjoyed it!
Oh do add Heidegger’s Glasses to your list.
Wow, you read a lot during the week. I am new to blogging and I am lucky any more to get through a couple a week now.
This has been a very busy month.
I am sure you will accomplish your reading goals! I want to get to The Wolves of Andover, but have so many other to get to as well!
I am the same way. I have to keep starting and stopping it, which is not the way I prefer to read.
Heidegger’s Glasses, is that the historical fiction about the holocaust? I’m sure I saw a favourable post on someone else’s blog. I do like Egyptian history so hope you enjoy Cleopatra. Have a great week and happy reading
Yes Heidegger’s Glasses is indeed historical fiction about the holocaust and absolutely brilliant. I reviewed it this past week. I am looking forward to reading Cleopatra.
