It's Monday, What Are You Reading is a weekly blog meme hosted by Sheila at Book Journey where you list the books you read last week and the ones you hope to read this week.
Read Last Week:
Summer Friends by Holly Chamberlin: I wanted to get a last beach book in before fall, and I finished in the nick of time! Review upcoming today or tomorrow.
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs: I was attracted to this book by the cover, and I loved the book.
The Girl in the Steel Corset by Kady Cross: Much better than expected! I really liked it, although could have been more steampunk.
Hijab Boutique: Still working on, will finish today and review soon.
Currently Reading:
I apparently went for a culinary/pastry theme this week, totally unplanned!
The Sweet Life in Paris by David Lebovitz: Saw this somewhere, and needed to read it! Love pastry and love Paris. Although I have never been there.
The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender: I just really liked the title and cover.
I'm looking forward to reading your review of Miss Peregrine's!

I read and reviewed Miss Peregrine's a little while ago, and I think I'm one of the few who didn't enjoy it very much. I have The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake on my bookshelf waiting to be read... hope you enjoy it!

I really enjoyed The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake. I liked that it didn't go where you expect it to go.
