This week I am planning to read/review: (I am ill so my reading my be on or off, hard to say.)
Visit next Monday to see if I managed to accomplish my reading goals.
Sorry to hear you haven’t been feeling well! Hopefully you’ll be able to get some reading done, but take all the rest time you can!
Thank you. I seem to either be sleeping and coughing or awake and coughing.
Oh sorry to hear you are ill. Hope you feel better soon. Your reading week this past week was wonderful!
I had an excellent week, which was not only filled with fabulous books but allowed me to have several reviews queued for the days I was too feverish to do much of anything.
Oh feel better, hope the books are good company and help to get you better also.

Thanks! I think I have some excellent books to chose from and the fever seems to be gone (I hope).
I also read and reviewed The Altar of Bones! You have alot of good books there!
I shall stop by and see what your thoughts were on the book.
Oh no, I’m so sorry you aren’t feeling well! It seems to be going around, sadly. Hope you feel better soon!
The Borgias novel is on my TBR list, hope it’s a good one
My Monday is here.
Crystal, I am currently reading it and hope to have the review up this week.
Again. I envy your reading and writing speed.
I think I need to learn from you
I will take time to read review
I got lucky last week is all.
Very impressed with the number of books you managed to read O.O wow!
I did have an exceptional week last week. I do not see myself reading that much this week.
Wow, what a fantastic week you had! And so much more for the next. I’m super impressed. I’m a new follower!!
You can see my What are you reading here!
Thanks, it was a wonderful week. I am hoping to read only a fraction this week.
You always have an impressive list of books. Have a great week =)
Thanks, there have been a lot of excellent books as of late.
I hope you feel better. You read soooo many books. I want to be like you when I grow up!

You are funny! Even I was surprised by how many books I read last week. Trust me, it is not something I plan for each week.
Glad to make you laugh!
I turned in my children’s book project today. The reading I did for it last week accounts for almost a third of my list. Come see what I read.
Congratulations on finishing your project. It must feel good to have it turned in.
A great list of books. The one I am most familiar with The Paris Wife, I have been seeing around a lot and while I am not a huge fan of Hemingway, this book intrigues me. I enjoyed your review too. Have a great week!
I think it would be intriguing to hear what a non-Hemingway fan thinks of the book. The Paris Wife is told through the eyes of Hemingway’s first wife.
Incredible (in a good way. And impressive), you read really fast! Hope you feel better soon.
One thing I am okay at is reading. I read extremely fast, which has some downsides, but mostly it is all positive.
Oh hope you feel heaps better soon and can read while recuperating
Glad to see you enjoyed I Am The Chosen King (same rating as me) and The Matchmaker of Kenmare (on my reading list this week.)
I think I’ll be adding Sins of the House of Borgia to my wishlist too. Happy reading!
Do let me know what you think of Delaney’s book. I do so enjoy his works. Sins of the House of Borgia should be going up this week.
Thanks for stopping by my blog at Hands and Home! I am SO glad to have found your blog – new follower! I plan to read Sins of the House of Borgia soon, I’m looking forward to hearing what you think.
Welcome! My review should be up this week.
Oh, I want to read Rock Bottom! Ever since the Erin Brockovich movie, I’ve been a fan.
Love the look of The Matchmaker of Kenmare, too.
Thanks for visiting my blog….and I hope you feel better soon!
I have not yet read Rock Bottom, it sounds eerily similar to the movie, but I reserve judgement until I have actually read the book. Delaney’s works are always wonderful and The Matchmaker of Kenmare is a delightful look into Ireland, love, war, and beauty amongst ruin.
Hope you feel better soon! If you’re ill and can’t do anything else, then really it would be fair if you could at least read. But maybe later in the week!
I know, the worst was being feverish and unable to read over the weekend. I am able to be awake for longer periods so hopefully this week will not be as bad as I think it will be.
I’m so impressed with how many books you are able to read each week! The Matchmaker of Kenmare looks really good and I hope to read it soon!
My It’s Monday post can be found here.
I adored The Matchmaker of Kenmare and hope you can read it soon.
You read an interesting mix of books last week. I hope you feel better soon.
Thank you. I did read some very exciting books last week.
I have A WORLD I NEVER MADE by James Lepore on my calendar to read the first week of April and now I am seeing his name pop up every where.
FEEL BETTER SOON!!!

Thank you for the well wishes. I have a few of his books scheduled, I think there may be a few tours going around.
Thanks for checking out my blog! Wow, that’s a lot of books…awesome! Good luck on getting the next batch read!
I need all the luck I can get.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I miss the days of reading books upon books during the span of a week. Maybe once my little girl is old enough for school I can have more time for reading. I hope you feel better soon.
Yes, I could not have read like this when my three were little.
Oh my what a full list of books you had read and have to read! They all look wonderful.
Sorry to hear you are ill and i hope you are back to good health soon.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting and i will be back to yours!
Yes it is indeed full and hopefully I will get halfway through my list.
Much further than i will on my list no doubt!!!
If I can get rid of this illness, then I shall make progress.
The author of Radio Shangri-La was at my local indie recently. I wanted to go meet her but I didn’t get to. Hope you feel better!
I have been waiting to finally be able to read Radio Shangri-La as it looks so very good.
As always, great reading week. I got Sins of the House of Borgia as my bathroom book, but think it will be removed once I get into it and want to finish it quicker ;o)
I have begun reading it as well.
Wonderful reading!
Thank you!
I am impressed with the list that you get through each week. I used to be able to get through a lot, but now, I’m lucky to read a book or two a week.
I have to say, some of these look great.
Hopefully you’re feeling better soon.
I read some really lovely books last week. Thank you for the well wishes.
I hope you get well soon and are able to get some reading in.
I liked your review of The Queen’s Lover. I own the British version of the book (Blood Royal) but haven’t finished it yet. I started it last year but put it aside to read other things and forgot about it. I do love historical fiction and mean to give it another go.
Have a great week!
Thank you for the well wishes. Have fun returning to Blood Royal.
Feel better, and don’t force anything!

Thank you for visiting my It’s Monday post! :”)
Have a fun time with you book picks – and with every thing else, too! ;”)

You are most welcome and I shall enjoy as many books as I can this week.
The only one I recognise in your new list is the Erin Brokovich book. You achieve so much each week! xx
Last week was exceptionally productive for me. This week will not come close to last week.
