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.
Last week was a busy week, but I did make it to the author meet and greet for Elizabeth Berg - so exciting! I also managed to spend a lot of time this past weekend reading on my porch - this has become my new favorite spot to read.

I hope you can fit some reading time into a busy week. I am a big fan of Iris Johansen. I hope you are enjoying that one. My Monday Report is here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list! So I immediately checked out Friendship Bread. Last year my Mother in Law was gifted some friendship bread and started and before I knew it everyone in our community was making it. (I gifted it to many of our neighbours as well).
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week!

There are a lot of books on your list that I want to read! Friendship Bread looks interesting and I've been wanting to try Debbie Macomber's books. I still need to read Elizabeth Berg too.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy your reading this week.
Good luck fitting those books on your list into a busy week!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Monday: http://myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2011/05/its-monday-what-are-you-reading_09.html
I'm curious to see what you think of "Cleopatra" - I want to get to it when I have more time to really spend digesting it.
ReplyDeleteI have the Forgotten Garden on my shelf so I look forward to reading your review! Have a great week of reading!
ReplyDeleteYou have a great list there. I didn't get to finish Cleopatra, but it's on my to-read list for this summer. Enjoy your reading week!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see you loved the new Wendy Wax book! I've got a review coming up for that one at the Chick Lit site I review for.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a fabulous reading week and if you get a second stop my to see what I've been reading at There's A Book! :)
My list this week is inflated with picture books that I read with my daughter and manga that I read over my morning coffee. Come see what I'm reading this week.
ReplyDeleteI totally understand how busy weeks can get in the way of good, quality reading time. Hope you squeeze some in this week!
