It's Monday, What Are You Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila at Book Journey, that is guaranteed to add to your reading list.
Read Last Week:
The Slap by Christos Tsiolkas: This book was grim and sad, but I enjoyed reading it. Review Wednesday.
Survival Lessons by Alice Hoffman: A total departure from her norm; this book is nonfiction, and was written when she had cancer. Review Tuesday.
Let It Snow by John Green, Lauren Johnson, and Lauren Myracle: This was a happy, clever book of short stories that allowed some lightness on my reading week. I really enjoyed every story in the book. Review Thursday. (maybe)
Reading This Week:
The French House by Don Wallace: I received this from NetGalley. I love any French memoir out there usually, so I am excited to dig in.
The Radleys by Matt Haig: I saw on Estella's Revenge last week, and was reminded I wanted to read it. Then when Andi said that it was only $1.99 on Amazon for the Kindle version, I knew I had to snatch it up!
Posts from last week:
I enjoyed The Slap. Added The Radleys to my TBR list.
ReplyDeleteI think The Radleys is going to be fun. :)
DeleteI was surprised at how much I liked The Radleys! Hope you do as well. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteOh good!! I am excited to start it!
DeleteI haven't read any of these, but some of the covers look enticing. The French House has a great cover.
ReplyDeleteI would love to move to a french house like that, even a ruin. Lol.
DeleteThe Slap is a book I considered reading but heard quite mixed thoughts about so I look forward to reading your review.
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
:-)
Bits & Bobs
I liked it, but it was not an easy read; it was not a happy book.
DeleteI get sucked in on a lot of the $1.99 Kindle deals too. My Kindle would bulge if Kindles could. Come see my Monday Report if you get a chance. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, me too lately!!! Especially now that I am having daily deals sent to my email. Lol!
DeleteIt's hard to ignore a good deal! I haven't heard of any of these books. Happy reading!

The only thing keeping me from LOVING The Radleys is the fact that I've been reading it forever! I read it in short chunks while my son is going to sleep, and nowadays, I tend to fall asleep with him rather than after him. lol
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check out your coney island post. I've never had either, but I think one of the food networks did a show on the rivalry a few years ago...
