It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?

Sunday 7 August, 2011 by 70 Comments

It’s Monday What Are you Reading 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.

This week I am planning to read/review:

  • What Language Is by John McWhorter
  • Domestic Violets by Matthew Norman
  • The Glitter Scene by Monika Fagerholm
  • Adam & Eve by Sena Jeter Naslund
  • Let’s Take the Long Way Home by Gail Caldwell

Life: Time is going by too quickly, but thankfully the heatwave has left.  I have been trying to balance family time, reading, knitting, and getting everyone ready for school to begin without spending too much time worrying about my oldest heading off to University.

Family Update:  School begins all too soon for my boys. On the upside, I will be able to read more per week, on the downside, I will really miss my oldest not being home.  We are trying to enjoy the last few weeks we have together before school begins.  As I mentioned above I have been knitting, it was time to start my Christmas knitting, so far so good.

Saturday Night: We spent the evening watching MST3K (oldest son’s pick), laughing, and enjoying our time together.

Read and Reviewed: This past week I read and reviewed 7 books. If you have time, please take a look at the reviews, one never knows when they will find a treasure.

Today I will be reading: The Glitter Scene by Monika Fagerholm

Happy Reading and have a wonderful Sunday.
